Hi Everyone,
Newbie here ...Tobias is having his first battle w/fleas, he's 2yrs 7mo. I think it's a minor case b/c I've only seen 3 and none on his face or belly. However, I'm paranoid about them resurfacing. I typically use Frontline Plus, ran out, ordered it online, and it hasn't arrived yet. Couldn't wait so I went to Petsmart, bought a single use of FirstShield trio, it was the only thing they had that would kill the fleas, eggs & ticks. I bathed him with a prescription shampoo he's been using and then applied it.
He hated it as usual, but he's still scratching from time to time. I'm not sure if it's the greasiness of the gunk or fleas? Should I bathe him again in Dawn or is it too soon (it's been 2 days)? I also washed all his stuff vacuumed like a mad woman, bought
Farnam Adams Flea & Tick Carpet Spray w/Linalool & Nylar
have to finish the house with this today, I'm going to try the Apple cider vinegar combo as well and spritz the place with Eucalyptus oil. Is there anything else I should do? Could the First Shield not be working? I think it's Petsmart brand sport treatment. Bathe or not to bathe again? Should I go to the vet and get the oral meds? Please help, I need to get these things off my pup and outta my house! THANK YOU!
