YT 1000 Club Member | You could try a little vinegar rinse after you bathe her. 1/4 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar to 3 cups of warm water (you don't have to use it all. I'm sure the dog is small). After you bathe her pour the rinse over her and then just lightly rinse her off. It's good as a deorderizer, kills fleas and ticks, skin allergies etc. Plus it's natural. Try not to get it into her eyes it could burn a little.

| What do you feed her?? Diet can have much to do with body smells and allergies...

Does that repel fleas or just kill them? We live in FL and flea are inevitable!!! She doesn't stay out long but she loves to be outside and it only takes a second for those little boogers to jump on her. I would rather not give her meds at this young age so if that works I would absolutely try it!!
