Just wanted to say too, that Dawn Dish Detergent works pretty well. I used the Front Line and as I said I barely got a full month, but I also tried the Dawn. You fill your sink up with warm water, right up to your pups neck, just leaving the head out. Let them soak in there for about four / five minutes this will drown the fleas. After drain the water and take Dawn and lather it all up on them, starting at the neck. I won't put it on their face because I'm afraid it will burn their eyes. I used Johnson's baby on the face. Once all lathered up take a warm towel from the dryer and wrap them in it for about ten minutes, then rinse them all off well and blow dry. I did this wil Bella when she was five weeks old. We rescued her and her whole little body was one big flea. Of course you can't use front line on them when they are that tiny, so I used the Dawn and it worked great. I had to repeat it the next day to get rid of what was left over but she was then fine, no fleas. Dawn works great on young pups that are too young for front line and for in between when it's too early to reaply the front line. Elaine |
