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!

My Mom has been using peppermint oil mixed with water (15 drops oil to 1 cup of water)...and it's been working!! No fleas, ticks, or biting bugs!! put it in a spray bottle...shake it up good...don't spray directly on the dog....spray on a towel or rag then wipe him/her down with it...all over...especially the underside. you can apply this everyday if need be. And....NO CHEMICALS!! My Mom got this info from a holistic vet.
