Bleaching the floors, walls, bedding, etc can't hurt. I still clean with bleach.

My first post 2 years ago was about Noah having parvo. We were leaving to go on vacation and Allie and Noah were going with us after a quick vet appointment. We made it 20 minutes down the road when he started seizing. Needless to say, I had to leave him at the vet the first 4 days because my vacation stuff was non refundable. My mom and daughter visited him until I got back, and I called the vets office 3 times a day for updates. He took a turn for the worse and the vet thought she was going to have to have "the talk" with me but I refused to believe he wasn't going to make it, and that's when I started making sure I was hand feeding him beechnut baby food, the probiotics sprinkled on, skin to fur contact, etc.

He's got the most gorgeous coat of all 3 of my dogs, and you'd never know he was a parvo baby (although he lacks a few social skills that I think he missed out on from being in a cage for 10 days). He's a little neurotic when it comes to food dishes (he can't stand to see the bottom of his dish) and will bark and bark and bark until you come fill it lol.
He loves my husband and will curl up by him and just sit for hours gazing at him....

Prayers and thoughts that your baby will make it through. I know your heartache!!
