I am having the same problem this year. My Sassy is a most miserable little girl. I am so sad.
I have washed her in Dawn, captured and killed all that I can find on her, yet she still scratches like crazy. Before I did that, I put on my bathing suit and we got in the tub so I could keep her body submerged for a bit thinking I could drown the little suckers. She thought I was trying to drown her, I think. Her little body is a mess!
I just bough some frontline. I always put flea killer on her
after a bath (but she was dry) and the girls at the vets office told me I am doing it wrong. They said three days BEFORE her bath and no bath for three days after application. They said it has something to do with the naturally occurring oils in their coat...I don't know or understand. But I followed their directions faithfully and STILL FLEAS!! Plus...the frontline made her sick for a day. Sad and laying around. No interest in anything. No barking at the doorbell....nothing! She was not her usual little self and I was soooo stressed about it!
I am considering changing back to Advantage...
....I think that worked better. But...I am afraid to put it on her now. I am thinking I need to wait until the proper amount of time has passed...I surely don't want to hurt her with this stuff. I am not thrilled to be putting pesticides on her in the first place.
Do you think it would hurt her to go ahead and put on the Advantage? It has been a couple of weeks now.
