If it is flea dirt, then I'd be looking for another Vet. pronto!!!!
My Vet. would have had the proper diagnosis and treatment before I even left the office.
If by chance that is flea dirt, then put your baby in a tub, coat him down in either olive oil or Avons SSS bath oil, comb the hair out really good and shampoo in Dr. Bronners liquid castile soap (eucalyptus) and make sure you rinse extrememly well, then add 20 drops of eucalyptus oil into 16 oz. of conditioner and mix well. Rub into the hair and rinse.
If your baby does have that many fleas, then please take a poop sample to a Vet. to have tested for worms. Chances would be great that your baby would have worms also. I do hope you get this all taken care of soon, because fleas can zap the life out of young puppies and put their health at great risk. |
