Use Dawn, Gain, Ajax to clean your cats or dogs. Leave the soap in and the bugs will drown. Add Borax if you wish which is natural and also kill bugs, but you must leave the soapy solution on their hair for like 5-10 minutes to really kill the fleas. Fleas die by drowning, so just make sure they don't have the capacity to move or breathe in the soapy lather for some time. |
Knowbody Special User ID: 3753361 United States 06/25/2013 04:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's a new med by Merck. Vet says Frontline Plus is not longer effective on the new super fleas. He is suggesting Activyl, the only thing the animal hospital carries now. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 42268507 Looks like it's only been around for a year or two. Has anyone used it or have an experiences with it they can relate? Thanks. Reviews seem mixed... the few I've seen say it's horrible and didn't work at all or it's wonderful and worked as described. So... not sure, looks about 50/50. I'd guess it would depend on your dog's grooming habits, outdoor activity, flea infestation quantity (alot or a little) and your overall house cleanness and flea amount. In summary, if you are a slob and have a bad flea infestation, with carpets, beds, etc all infested, I'm assuming this product may need help to work properly... such as cleaning the house and beddings throughly to prevent fleas from coming back. If you wash your dog and vacuum/wash bedding frequently... I assume the product will be more effective. Good luck! Last Edited by Knowbody Special on 06/25/2013 05:00 AM |

bugkiller User ID: 48558556 United States 05/22/2014 06:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Repellent for your pets: For pets, add 1 cup of water to a spray bottle, followed by 2 cups of distilled white vinegar. Ticks hate the smell and taste of vinegar, and will be easily be repelled by this ingredient alone. Then, add two spoonfuls of vegetable or almond oil, which both contain sulfur (another natural tick repellent). To make a repellent that will also deter fleas, mix in a few spoonfuls of lemon juice, citrus oil, or peppermint oil, any of which will repel ticks and fleas while also creating a nicely scented repellent. Spray onto the pet's dry coat, staying away from sensitive areas including eyes, nose, mouth, and genitals. When outdoors for an extended period, spray this solution on two to three times per day. |
