Hi ....
Our Little Oliver is 11 years old and Flea Free...
Thank God for that ...
It is a frustration..but once u get it in check u can keep it under control...

We do Not use Chemicals..

First we get a spritzer bottle with apple cider vinegar and water, 50/50...
and a nice clean white towel...and a fine tooth comb and comb him out...u will see them disabled in the towel or dead...

Then we shampoo him with Baby shampoo Lavender

Then we make a spritzer of Rosemary and boiled water..
( we boil the water and steep one teaspoon of dried rosemary,in a mesh strainer, in a cup of water ..let it cool as u wash ur bby)
then rinse and pour the Rosemary water on or spray it on the hair of ur bby..leave it on and brush and dry ...

Now u must also do ur home...

we use baking soda and salt on the rugs ..let it sit for about 20 minutes and vacuum ..vacuum for at least every day for a week...
and u can use ur Rosemary spray on ur house and patio area too..

We do this for many years now and NO FLeaS heRe...knock on wood
and

best of all NO CHEMICALS to harm our bby

WE LOVE HIM SOOOO....

Also to point out ..the chemical is absorbed into the oil glands ?
then years later many dogs have lumps and bumps ?
Many from the years of useage of these products ?
