[QUOTE=CoCos_Mom;3985588]I hate those little critters called FLEAS!!!!!!
Have any of you that have different dog breeds experienced more fleas with your Yorkie than the other breed? My Chi has NO fleas or problems with fleas, but Miss CoCo keeps at least 2 - 3 fleas on her at all times!!!!! Yesterday I immediately saw 5 and had her daddy bathe her right away and apply another flea treatment. I have even tried 2 different flea treatments on her over the past 5 months. Every time she gets a bath, I also wash all of her bedding and vacuum the carpets.
It's not even like she spends time outside like that. She goes out for potty breaks and that is all!!!! It's very frustrating to say the least. I live in an apartment and the area where she likes to potty is under a bush. However, there is no grass growing there. It's only dirt and leaves. I have taken it upon myself to buy some outside flea spray in the hopes that will help. I don't know what else to do at this point.

My son lives in an apartment. His little shihpoo and his maltezu have had fleas like crazy. They also go outside to potty. I gave my son some diatomaceous earth to put out where his kids go potty. They both take comfortis for fleas but were picking them up and bringing them inside. Since he used the DE a couple of weeks ago he has not had a problem.
