I've tried all the stuff: dawn, vinegar etc. the only that worked for us was Advantage. The other things only kill on contact and don't keep killing as the eggs hatch in the house. Advantage is applied once a month. I learned to bathe Roxie first and after she dries put it on and don't bathe her again for a good 2 weeks. It says you can bathe them and that it's water proof....I found out that's not really true. I'd put it on Roxie and bathe her within a few days or a week and see fleas again. So I called the Advantage place to see if it was safe to re-apply before the month was up and they gave me suggestions such as to wait longer for bathing. Plus for us the Advantage worked better then the Advantyx. Good luck! |
