Okay, our dogs have fleas. They are indoor dogs. And despite using the flea drops and giving them flea preventive heartworm medicine, and flea baths, and treading the furniture and carpets for fleas, they still have fleas and we can keep them slightly under control but can't get rid of them completely.

What do you use on your dogs for flea control. How well does it work?

My dog acts like she has fleas so I have been having her bathed often. I had fleas with my cats I was told to put some borax around the house on the carpets and it worked great. They were itching less and less each day. If you have carpet put some borax laundry soap in your carpet like carpet freshener. Leave t for a few days you will see them go away little by little.

our dogs had them too! millions of 'em! my mother even picked fleas and ticks with her own hands to rid of those pests! haha.

we used flea powder and gave them regular baths. i think fleas are numerous during summer season too.

i guess it would take weeks maybe months to see the results of your labor, just be patient. :)

We use Frontline which you buy from vets or from pet sites online. It may take a couple of applications for it to work at first, but we have had no problems with it and it has always worked for us. We are in the UK but I am sure there will be other things like this brand in every country. Good luck!

YOU cna do everything you can do to your pets. It will be in vane if u do not take all animals and people out of that house and spray bomb the house. Once that is done, or while u r out flea shampoo the animals/ pets. 2 birds 1 stone.
