Ignoring fleas will only make them more expensive to get rid of. You probably have an infestation in your home already.
Did you know dogs get tapeworms from fleas? Can even get anemic from blood loss?
Many vets will sell you one vial of flea preventative for about $12.
What are you doing about heartworm prevention? That is something that can't be ignored, either. |
Excellent tips.
Also ,if she may be laying around right after she "pees" , she may have a little bit of yeast infection going on at her vulva and tummy area, it causes the brown spots too.
I have read in many places that "Dawn" soap will help with the fleas, but i have actually not tried my self.
You can find frontline on e-bay often, people buy , and do not use and seel cheaper. Even if you get one vial for a larger dog and use just a couple drops will help you .
Besides you need to address the home infestation ASAP , before it gets out of hand badly.
Iodine or peroxide to her tummy, in a cotton ball will help a lot with the brown spots .
