| Umm I dont know about the first question. I would ask you vet what age to start. ASAP (it's flea season) would be my recommendation but what do I know. The second question. I like oatmeal shampoos like Old Reliable. I use this oatmeal shampoo that has baking soda in it. It smells really good! I have also heard many bad things about a certain brand. Someone on a Basset Hound website told me not to use any products from "8 in 1" I hope I helped! Good luck! |

| U could ask ur vet for the frontline 3 in 1, its a deflea, dewrom and an earmite treatment, i havent used the 3 in 1 myself, but i saw a woman at the vet when i was there last buy this product. I use frontline ( fipronil ) spray on my babies, that i treat them with every 4 weeks. I know the breeder used it on Chanel when she was 7 weeks so its safe!

| You can use advatange (voted the best by 5 vets and many breeders) as early as 10 weeks, no harm. You can go to the website for more detailed information under the FAQ. www.nofleas.com
