It didn't take me but a few days to realize why I didn't want to move back home to Alabama .... fleas/bugs!!!
Poor Toto never got a flea in Colorado and she immediately acquired a couple when we got home. I bathed her, killed the fleas and treated her with her Advantage. She still clawed & scratched like she was infested. I did the "Dawn Soak" and didn't find a single flea. She got up the other morning with a huge knot over one of her little eyes and Dr. Lucy says she has developed an allergy to fleas and she is on medication! grrrrrrr She had just learned to love exploring the yard and being outside ... now, I don't even dare let her play on the patio! No doubt she and I are miserable here ... I want to just sell the house and move somewhere that's "flea free"!! We are going to talk to an exterminator and hopefully there's something that we can do to the yard that will kill all the creepy crawly things and not harm her.
I'm sorry that I can't offer a suggestion and if there are those who have any, we would love to hear them too!!
