| Fleas help!!! [B] I put Frontline on all of my babies a little over a month ago, just to be safe. I had never seen a flea on any of them, but I had noticed little black dots on Tenci's and Chip's belly. I thought they just needed a bath from playing in the yard. I would bath them, and a small bit of the black dots would still be there. Tenci's hair started falling out and breaking off a couple of months ago, but the vet said all of her blood work was fine so I didn't think about it- Okay fast forward to today- I was holding Chip and I seen a Flea- A big Flea- It ran down his belly and into the hair around his tail. I tried to catch it, but it got away. I started freaking out and telling my son. I held Chip up again and seen the same Flea or his twin brother do the same run as before, down the belly and into the hair beside tail. I noticed Chip has those little black dots on his belly again too, and so does Tenci, but the other three do not. Trouble and Pee Wee have puppy cuts so seeing a flea would be easy on them, but Gus has longer hair and no little dots on his belly. Tenci's hair is longer but thin where it has been falling out. Chip has the thickest hair I have ever seen. He has more hair than I do. There could be a entire town of Fleas living in his hair for all I know. Well I put Frontline on him a little while ago. I just had one tube here. Is it possible for just him and Tenci to have Fleas? What are those little black dots? and what do I need to do to get totally rid of these FLEAS? and could they be the reason Tenci's hair has been falling out? I know this is alot of questions, but I know some of you guys have answers!
Thanks so much Sally Ann |
