Hello, when I was giving my Lady a bath I saw bugs on her. Unsure if it was lice or fleas. She only goes outside to take care of her business and comes right back in. O btw, I saw about 4 of those things when I was cutting and bathing her. They seem to fall off with water, it seems like.

I don't use Frontline and advantix due to having bad results.

So, I was wondering if Brewers yeast tabs with onions would be ok to use as preventive? Have you ever heard of this? If so, what is it?

Also, what other home prevention methods that would work? If DeFlea spray would work as well?

Any input would be great! Thank you in advance!
