What to do? We are going to my in laws for a Christmas visit. We have to stay the night in a hotel and we booked one that takes pets. We were planning on taking Marley with us to the hotel and then to his parents house where his extended family is meeting from out of state. The problem is that his parents have a bad flea infestation. Marley takes a heartworm pill that both kills & sterilizes the flea but I don't want to subject him to bites if I don't have too. Hubby said he will be fine and by the time we get home (4 hour drive) all the fleas that are on him will be dead and we just wash his car seat and blanket.
I don't want to leave him with a sitter. He only had fleas one other time and it was when we went to visit with his parents last year this time before we knew they had fleas. He did not have any severe reactions to the bites.
What would you do?
PS the sitter is a smoker (we aren't) and has 5 other dogs...but she is very very sweet to her dogs. |
