Fleas can make even the most contented dog miserable. Here a few ways to get your dog back up to speed.Bathing your dog with a flea bath and combing him with a flea comb are two of the best ways to help your friend become flea free. Comb your dog two or three times a week with a flea comb. As you groom, continue to dip the flea comb in either soapy hot water or rubbing alcohol diluted with water. The fleas will drown as you comb them out.
To kill more fleas and eggs when bathing your dog, let the shampoo remain on your pet for 8 to 10 minutes. When purchasing a flea shampoo read the label carefully. Flea shampoos which are too harsh may cause your dog skin irritation.
Wash everything! Fleas can lay eggs on items such as your dog's bedding, rugs, collar, leash, toys, etc. A thorough washing in hot soapy water will kill fleas and their eggs. Continue to wash items on a regular basis until fleas are gone.
After vacuuming, be certain to throw-out the vacuum bag or empty the canister outside.
