The bottom line is that with any of the frontline products and Advantage they have to bite your dog to die. If you have fleas in your home and they are hatching eggs in your carpet your dogs will continue to get reinfested .
You can put some seven dust down in your yard if you want to kill the fleas there or try the natural remedies that were suggested here. Bombing your house will kill the live fleas but not the eggs. If you use the borax(which is safe to your pets) you will kill them as they hatch too. Fleas live outside just because the dog next door has fleas should not mean yours do. Once you get control of the flea situation it is easier to treat your dogs successfully.Don't forget your furniture too.
I like the more natural remedies because of the safety issues with small dogs. Good luck!! |
