Ellie spends most of her time inside and we are sprayed for bugs, so she doesn't get fleas. We don't even use preventatives. Strengthening the immune system, hmm, you are doing probiotics, right? |
I was....but when she broke out last time I had to strip her down to bare essentials to try and figure out what it is she is reacting to. With testing for food allergies I cannot give ANYTHING besides the single protein diet so now with her breaking out again without probiotics, it obviously wasnt the probiotics doing it. back to square 1 but have a few more answers. Im going to ask for specific food allergy tests too. I would like her tested for grains, fleas, and a few single protein sources (beef, chicken, etc.) I'm fairly certain this is a flea reaction. But we shall see, vet comes in 30 minutes (cannot wait). I would like to treat yard, I know there are plants you can plant to repel fleas, I have read about a spritzer (steeped lemon water) that you can spritz on them to repel also. Brewers Yeast was mentioned by my vet also. She is on sentinnel but that does not repel, kill, nor stop a flea from biting so thats useless in Bellas case.
