I just bath them with this if they get fleas but we do not have a big prob here - the fronline kills the population and i thought it killed the flea instantly when they bit the dog and that is not so
Natural Chemistry De Flea Pet Shampoo at PETCO
Yes Deb, that is EXACTLY what I used. I can tell you after we came home (after Sunnie passed) I spent hours on the phone with the company owner as well as the chemist. My concern was I wished there was MORE warning on the labels. They said that the FDA would not allow them to amend the warning they already have. They admitted to me that they have seen CATS die from ingesting it, but said never a dog. I told them that they just saw the first dog then. The ER vet and MY vet here at home were pretty positive that it was the flea medication that killed him. They did admit that it was likely because he had a sensitive stomach to begin with.
