I would like to get a new flea medicine for her because i really didn't like the way frontline made her feel. Anybody else have this same reaction and is any other recommedations. Thanks Gracie
I have posted, several times, a natural way to rid of fleas, ticks and other biting insects that works!! peppermint oil and water.

I just copied this from one of my posts.. there is also a recipe for flea and tick treatment on here.

here is my post-

I have posted several times a recipe from a holistic vet for flea, tick and insect repellent. I'm sure it would work on a cat as well...I will post it again...


15 drops of peppermint oil to 1 cup of water

put in a spray bottle and shake...spray on a rag or towel then wipe down the animal, making sure you get around the neck, belly and under the legs try to get it as close to the skin as possible..My Mom uses this on her little Maltipoo who has extremely thick hair...she can not get it to her skin so she just wipes down her coat...she hasn't had 1 flea or tick on her! And you can use it everyday if you have to...do not spray directly on the animal.
