I've heard that table salt sprinkled on the carpet at night causes the fleas to dehydrate, and you vacuum in the morning. I like boric acid too.

Dawn is really safe, we used it on wild fowl rescues to de-oil them, bc it rinses off more completely than others. Just don't use anything that says antibacterial and contains tri-***something, it leaves a coating some are sensitive to. All soap has antibacterial properties anyway...

I also use conditioner on my pups, but leave it set on them for a minute or two before rinsing, seems to help Peek a Boo's skin alot!
