Whats the best way to get rid of fleas on dog and yard2007-11-25 12:29:50

I Have about a 33lb. Springer spanial and she has fleas. We live in the country lots of leaves lots of trees.I've tried the ones you put behind their ears helps,but there still there,. I need a old fashion remedy.

Answers:

there are insecticides you can put in your yard. that paired with regular washings with flea shampoo should do the trick. i had the same problem.

Buy some Frontline or Advantage from your vets office. It works great~and kills the flea eggs, too. I really don't think it's possible to get them out of your yard though.

Try frontline.. you can get it at your local vet. It usually works pretty good. You're pretty much always guarenteed fleas with a dog being outdoors. The trick is to get rid of them with the frontline and keep applying it as needed to keep the fleas away.

The method I use hasn't failed me yet.

I use Adams Flea Spray on the dogs and cats, once a week. I also use the spray in my house, on the carpets, furniture, pet bedding and every where else I can reach, this is done once every two weeks. Outside, I use Triazicide Spray, once every two months. I have NO fleas, inside the home or out. ( nor any on the animals)

She needs a regular flea & tick shampoo about every two weeks. Make sure you let the suds and shampoo soak in for 5 full minutes after you suds her up. ( I have to constantly talk to and rub my dog to keep her from shaking and sending suds all over!) My vet emphasises the 5 min rule (it's on the bottle directions).
