Fleas!!!!
 

Dogs..

Can't get rid! The fleas i mean...

Any suggestions please?:mad:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

don't worry sarah coz whatever the size we have got them bigger here :eek:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Honestly, i have done the medical, to the herbal, and the Voodo.

I just have to have fun picking the buggers off!

Bless the perros, driving them mad.

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

prevention is always best imo ;)

i've always used 'frontline' on my dog and cats and never had a problem tbh

good luck...ohhh i'm feeling itchy all over now talking of fleas :lol:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Just noticed where you are.

Everything in the USA is bigger....

Love from Spain tho xx (couldn't find a flea symbol)

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

hehe.

The eternal struggle. My parents showered their dog every few days to get rid of them (using flea shampoo). They also gave him tablets which were very good. Having said that, if you get them in the carpets they can be a pain to get rid of. Good Luck!

[QUOTE=TruBrit;5105372]Such a show off, I am trying to get a prime steak off the buggers!

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Thanks we have no carpets. I have put them through them more then Chernobyl! Bless them.

Oh well i suppose it will stop. Its always one bug or another. :eek:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Have you tried Advantage?

It is a Bayer product, its available in Spain and it is the only thing that takes care of the fleas on my working dog.

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

I haven't but I will.

Sometimes you are quite sensible! Bless ya.

My dogs would like to work, but they cant be arsed! xxx:)

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

To be honest , they go off into the 'campo' enjoying themselves and come back with lots of little critters.

Freedom or critters! Critters for me :eek:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

I have sheep, the dog is around them everyday, and she picks up any number of bugs, including fox fleas.....we have never managed to keep on top of the flea situation, but since Jan it has been kept in check with it.

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Thanks. I have a Beagle, Spanish people want to buy him, they dont know he cant smell a sheep or a fox in 2 foot! Laziest beagle in the EEC!

But the little fleas still like him.

Ticks... I have months checking them out! But fleas are too fast for me.
:huh:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

I was mistaken, the stuff we use is Advocate, and it does almost everything.

Thank you.

Buenos Noches.:thumbsup:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Oh the dreaded,yukky,nasty,little things.I have cats and I use frontline(the little pippet things for fleas and ticks) or as RM says advostuffy,both are good. But I also have a flea comb and believe it or not every night I have a bowl of hot water next to me ,comb them put the comb in the water to kill anything and it takes away any eggs too.Blimey do I really do that.Yes because I absolutly cannot stand fleas and they want to bite me to so I get them first.:rofl:It does work though,.

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

How dare they not pay rent on my dogs!

Thanks for all the advice.

A strange womam said Tea tree oil?

Oh well the dogs will smell ... :confused:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

I must admit that I use TT oil as well, its probably not needed but I still use it, and I love the smell too

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

Are you a flea?

I think i am just going to nag them out!

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

How would u use tea tree oil for fleas? I swear by it for loads of things but havent heard of that one. Frontline is useless, ours seem to have got used to it now.

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

see my post above, Advocate is brilliant, even against fox fleas!

I put some TT on my hand every few days and rub it into her coat, but never when I Advocate her.

Re: Fleas!!!!
 

I´ll second that. I use it on my Akita who has a very thick double coat.
