Thank you for the info. On Bravecta, I am scared to use it, I'm gonna have to talk to the vet...
When my children were little I was always scared to death they would get lice, thank GOD they never did, but I have learned fleas give me the same feeling  itchy, dirty, and not a happy mama! I am washing my bed sheets daily as both sleep with us and I'm not even gonna say how often the vacuum is getting used
Poor Teddy, mine are scratching, so today when they get their bath I am going to try the apple cider vinegar and maybe it will soothe them too, thanks for that tip! I know it sounds like you can see fleas jumping in my house and on my dogs lol, it's not like that but I know it can turn into that and I am paranoid that it will  |
I remember a lice outbreak in my 2nd grade class and the nurse had to look through everyone's hair -- thankfully I escaped it!



Fleas are nasty little boogers and make me mad too.
Wet or dry climate doesn't matter. My friends in drought-ridden California had problems last year too.
Make sure you vacuum your car too if your babies have been in the car.
The apple cider vinegar/water solution helps relieve itching and may help repel new fleas from jumping on them when they go outdoors, according to some sources. Teddy also has a med spray from the vet for when he has bites.
