fleas help I brought my Abby home from the breeders about 3 weeks ago and today I found a flea. Is there any safe way to get rid of fleas with a pregnant dog? We have another yorkie and 2 cats and the last thing I want is a flea infestation. Thanks |
I don't put anything on mine when they are pregnant. I would recommend just combing her daily with a flea comb and treat your other animals. I like to use Advantage. Hopefully there will not be a lot of other fleas if you catch them soon enough. |
Mix some vinegar and water and drench her with it. She'll stink for a little bit, but since the fleas aren't bad, it should work. I would also steam clean your furniture and carpets as well as wash anything she touched and make sure your other dogs are treated. |
If you have carpets or area rugs sprinkle Borax on the rugs, let sit for a few hours and then vacuum. Borax supposedly kills any eggs laid. It will also freshen your carpets. :) |
Great, So far I haven't found any more fleas, but will was dog beds etc... Thanks Deb |
i use Dawn dishwashing detergent. It kills the fleas and they just fall off as you comb but it does not keep fleas off them. I put in on dry dogs then lather and wash. Rinse well. |
