Funny you asked this 'cause I was just contemplating putting her on Revolution and wondering what I could use to bathe her, she has a bath once a week. Last year I tried everything on the market to no avail. Fleas on her and my house. I went bazerk!!! I want to save what hair I have on my head this year. Already talked to the vet(not about the bathing thing though) but waiting til the puppies quit nursing.

dish soap -- I think palmolive (I know I spell wrong) wil kill the fleas.
they will fall off dead in the bathwater. I don't use it except when we have an outbreak because I am sure it dries out the skin. Also ... borax dusted around the cornors kills fleas. In Miami the fleas never die.. we never have freezes to kill them so it is always flea season.
I was also told you should wait 2 to 3 days AFTER bath to put on the topical. Don't know if that makes sense -- but something about the natural oils in the skin/fur is what spreads out the topical.
