Default Homemade Flea Bath Recipe

I don't know if this works or not. I saw it and thought I would share it here. I'm not sure I'd want my yorkie smelling like a lemon and I wondered if it would get yucky in yorkie hair.

Looking for an inexpensive way to keep your pets flea-free? Then give this easy-to-make flea bath a try:
What You Need:
•One lemon
•A pot
•Water
•A spray bottle, sponge or pet brush

What You Do:

1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Then, remove from heat.

2. Add a sliced lemon to the pot, and allow it to steep overnight.

3. Apply the resulting liquid to your pet with a spray bottle, sponge or brush.

4. Repeat daily or as needed.

Why This Works

Lemons contain limonene, a chemical that kills and repels fleas.
