I live in Hawaii and have 2 indoor dogs...I can't seem to keep the fleas off of them..I use flea shampoo and bathe them once a week along with frontline once a month..If anyone has any suggestions as far as a certain kind of shampoo or flea medicine that works great I would greatly appreciate the info! Thanks
Answers:
sounds like you are doing a great job of treating the dogs :)
Now treat your house %26 the furnishings %26 any yard that they may use when they go outside
Carpet? Salt and a vacume... it is a wonderful thing... vacume %26 throw the bad away, sprinkle with salt, wait 3 days then vacume %26 throw the bag away - repeat as needed in 3 day intervals
Grass? Mix a little Ivory Liquid Dish Soap with a bunch water %26 spray it on
Add a tiny little bit of sulpher, some garlic %26 brewers yeast to thier diet
when you wash them, leave the suds on for at least 5 minutes (chokes the living fleas) and rinse with a solution of 1 part apple cider vinegar to10 parts water.. okay they will smell like a salad, but the fleas won't find them nearly as tasty
Also, if they have fleas, please get them also tested for tapeworms.. when they bite %26 ingest a flea it becomes a tapeworm
Sounds like you are doing all the right things. If you haven't already treated your house with a flea fogger, you should probably do that next. I know of at least 5 people, including myself, who had a similar problem with Frontline last year. I ended up switching to Advantage for a couple of months, then switched back to Frontline. I haven't had a problem since.
Treat your house for flea infestations.
Use flea bomb and follow instruction.

Flea infestion.?
How can i rid my home and pet of fleas? and it won't cost me a small fortune.
Answers:
For your dog, get a flea killer called Frontline. It is the only stuff that will actually get rid of the fleas. As for your home, go to your local Petsmart or Petco and ask them for a spray for your home. They will know what works best. If you don't mind spending a little money, get an exterminator. Frontline is relatively expensive, but it works really well. I believe it's around $50 for a 3 month supply.
Buy some flea bombs %26 bomb the house but nobody can be in the house at the time.
I had this problem a couple of years ago. We went to Walmart and bought flea powder for your carpet, and we got rid of the pet that had them. We bombed the house and stayed out of it for at least 6 hours. You can also get the spray and double dose the house. If you are planning to keep your pet, get the flea treatments either from your vet, or a local store. You can use a collar, but I don't think they work as well. Before you do either of those, douse your pet in flea powder and then give it a flea bath in the shampoo. Use a flea comb to get the dead fleas out. These things are not expensive, and overall I paid less than $50 to get rid of the problem. They bite hard and leave lots of little bumps, so get rid of them quickly! I hope I helped!! Good luck!
Bomb the house. Not literelly. With a flea bomb.
You can use capstar pills to get the flees off your pet quick! Then place several bowls of water around your house, put some soap in it to break the water tension. the flees will jump around and eventually land in the water and drowned. Happens faster that you would think. just got to make sure your pet does not drink it. my cats never drank it maybe cause to soap smell but all you need is a drop of soap so shouldn't be to bad, i guess (probably give them diarrhea if they drank it). or maybe move them into a separate room while you treat the rest of the house or outside (if your pets normally go outside). the more vertical the walls the better like the glad plastic containers. if you see the flees have the ability to climb up out of the water and jump out then you can rub a small ring of Vaseline on the water line and that will fix that. if your concerned the animal will drink the water then you could try it without the drop of soap and just the Vaseline (the flees won't drowned but should get stuck to the edge) if the walls are so smooth the flees can't climb up then maybe just water would work, but the soap helps them sink quick to drowned. place the bowls were you find more flees and next to things that get warm like your computer (don't spill it) the warmth will attract them. I had a mild infestation in a small apartment used three bowls. another time in a house using more bowls and due to the seriousness of the infestation on the animals we used the capstar pills to rid the flees from the pets, bought them off of ebay to save vet costs. Just check your pets weight and get the right ones for its size. your pet will scratch a lot for a few hours but it will be fine. I came up with this when bombing and spraying and powders were not working in the house. In the apartment I went straight to this method as I never liked poison being sprayed everywhere. might take a week more if eggs hatch but it's cheap.
Bug bombs and flea treatments, but follow the directions for it to work.
frontline for your dog is the best.
I dont know were your from so have found some uk %26 other countries
I won't exactly cost a fortune, but the fact of the matter is the cheap stuff from petshops doesn't work - that's why it's cheap, petshops aren't allowed to sell the appropriate drugs.
You need to use a veterinary preparation - a spot-on or spray for your pet, and a spray for your house. Here's the step by step guide to being flea-free:
+ use a spot-on like Frontline on your pet every 4-6 weeks.
+spray your house, sofas and pet bedding with a spray like Indorex, Acclaim or Staykil
+ vacuum your house
+spray and and vacuum again!
+once you are flea-free (and you will be) use Frontline Plus on your pet, and this will keep your pet and the environment flea-free
Honestly, if you really want to get rid of fleas, don't bother with petshop stuff - youll actually endup spending more just trying to find one that get rid of 100% of fleas, as none of them do.

Take the advice from someone who is horribly allergic to flees. You can easily afford to rid your house of fleas for a minimal cost. You can use the bug bombs, however make sure you check the bottle to ensure that it kills ALL stages of life. Some bug bombs specifically target adult fleas, but fail to kill the flee eggs which remain lingering in carpets and fabrics. Make sure you use one bug bomb per room. Don't try and take short cuts. Maybe you'll think the flees are predominantly in one room or space of the house, but believe me if you have flees in even one room then they are in the entire house/ apartment. Before setting off the bombs, make sure you keep all dresser drawers closets doors open to ensure that all spaces are perfused. Also the smell of the chemical can linger in the home for a couple of days and you can manage this if you have some kind of home air freshner, window fan, incense or candles. Finally, there is no getting around treating your pet. If you don't the flees will just come back again. There are many product you can buy at the pet store. I would suggest asking them the best product to buy and how to apply it. Good luck and hope this helps!
No matter what you use to kill them, you must use a growth inhibitor as well, the hardest thing to kill are the eggs...
flea bomb the house ( less than 10$ for a can - you will probably need two cans) frontline plus for dogs ( buy it online) is $10. for a one month application... daily, thorough vacuuming- free.. no small fortune here.. very rewarding for both you and pets...
i have been told to try powdered flea killer that ud buy for animals and put it around all the rooms, then hoover up. repeat as necessary. it worked for someone i know.
Wash ur dogs real good. put frontline on them. Take ur animals out of the home. I use borax sprikle all over the rugs, and under furniture. leave on a few hours. Vacume it all up, then shampoo the rugs.
Fleas are a major pest. There are various species of fleas - cat fleas, dog fleas, rat fleas and rabbit fleas.
You can get rid of them by the safest and cheapest methods like boric acid.

Flea and tick medication.. Advantix/Frontline Plus/Hartz?
Alright, it's flea season again and two of my dogs have already gotton ticks. I was wondering if somebody could tell me their experiences with any of the above medications. I've heard that Hartz could kill dogs and that Frontline doesn't work. I haven't heard anything on Advantix.. but it's extremely expencive.
Also, do flea collars really work? I'm thinking of getting my dog one.. thanks!
Answers:
Do NOT use ANY OTC flea product including flea collars. They are ineffective at best and can cause serious skin irritation, skin burns, neurological issues, seizures and death.
The OTC products, including Hartz, Zodiac, Sentry, Bio-Spot, etc, are just as dangerous for dogs as for cats. (also Hartz for cats is still very much sold in stores it has NOT been taken off the market)We've seen a lot of serious problems at the hospital caused by OTC flea products in both dogs %26 cats.
Frontline Plus works very well for fleas %26 ticks. I live in "ticksville" and have used Frontline Plus for years with great success. Also Frontline doesn't go into the dogs bloodstream..it stays in the hair folicles and oil glands of the skin.
get frontline and skip the flea collars
We have four little dogs and we always use frontline onthem and we have found it 100% effective. jo
I got my pup a flea collar when he was 7 weeks since it was the only thing I could find safe for puppies and 5 weeks later, he hasn't had any ticks on him, so I'd say it's working well.
Also, a coworker told me about a spot-on treatment like Advantix and Frontline called BioSpot that she has started using on her dogs and she said it has worked very well- and it's a lot cheaper than the other two. Hope this helps!
actaully frontline does work. i use this on my dog ALL the time. i work @ a vets office. i really wouldnt reccomend using Hartz. there are side effects that COULD kill your dog. but the chances in the are VERY slim. but i dont think its that good of a product. try using frontline. if your dogs already have ticks and/or fleas, then it will take a little while for ANY medication to start wokring. but within 12 hours, ALL of the fleas and ticks SHOULD be dead. flea collars in my opinion dont really work. i belive that people just put that on the pets cause they dont want to take the trouble and put on the meds themselfs. im sure thats not true, but thats just how i feel. i would say skip the flea collars. Good Luck. And God Bless鈾?
Before applying any topical flea pesticide, read up on the active ingredient and its side effects...neurotoxins can be quite dangerous.
I've used Frontline Plus and had good luck with it almost all the time. There have been a couple of times when the fleas were just so active that it didn't last all month. Never had much luck with flea collars. As far as ticks, I check my dogs every day, but if I happen to miss a tick, I find a dead tick later, thanks to the Frontline Plus.
In my experience, Frontline is the best you can get. Flea collars never worked for my Dalmatian so Frontline was the next best thing.
I think you definitely heard wrong about Frontline. It is one of the most effective and safe flea and tick preventative on the market. It is expensive, but it is a great product.
I don't really have much experience with the rest.
The biggest problem with Hartz was not with dogs so much, but with cats. It has killed many cats. So many that Hartz for cats has been taken off the market. I don't really know how effective Hartz is, especially against ticks, but alot of people use it. Personally, Hartz scares me because I have seen so many problems with the toxic effect it has on cats and the fact that it took so long for it to be removed from the shelves.
It would take a really great product to lure me away from Frontline, but you can let your vet help you make this choice.
I have used frontline plus on my dog for 6 years. She has never had any problems with fleas or ticks. She also has sensitive skin and the frontline has never caused any issues. Also use it on the 2 younger dogs and for the cat as well. No problems with fleas or skin reactions due to the medication.
Flea collars only work for the area right around their neck. Also, there is a greater chances of your dog slipping it off and chewing it, plus do you really want to be touching it any time you pet your dog?
Hartz, Zodiac, and Spot-On are bad news. I have not heard anyhting bad about Frontline
I personally use Advantage, but it does not prevent ticks, which seems to be your problem. My vet recommended against K-9 Advantix b/c it has a powerful pesticide (primarily for the anti-tick purposes) that can be harmful to pregnant women and young children.
I have seen some things online about Permethrin-10, but do not know a whole lot about it. You may want to ask your vet.
I have used both Frontline, Advantage and some other knock off brands (Hartz %26 another pet store brand). The knock off ones I have found left my dogs fur discolored where it was applied and the hair never returned to the normal color. Never heard of any animals dying from any of them. The Frontline Plus %26 Advantage both work great from my experience. The difference was that the Advantage was really only applicable for fleas. Frontline was good for mosquitoes, fleas, %26 ticks. I have heard from some vet personnel that Advantix works good too , but have not tried it. I was reccommended to try Revolution, but no one has been able to tell me the long term affect on the dog. I thought it covered to much any way. Good luck deciding. You may have to try them on your animal for 3-6 month time and see which one is the most effective. I also have never had any luck with flea collars of any brand. Most effective has been Advantage or Frontline + .
Advantix is supposed to be the best one,but I dont think any of them work the flea collars are just the same.Get your house and yard fumigated,And do your dogs at the same time with flea and tick shampoo + check your dogs daily for ticks.If you find ticks on dogs or in yard put them in metholated spirits whick kills them,dont forget use tweezers to pick ticks out because you have to get the whole tick especially the head...Liz.

Flea and tick control?
Can you use one tube of frontline or advantage for multiple animals if you get the large weight size?
Answers:
NO NO NO. Call the 800 # on the box and ask them. They will say NO NO NO too.
not a good idea... get the appropriate size for each dog you can buy single doses from the vet if you don't want to buy the 3 pack.. but it is good to always have on hand...
it depends i guess
i mean if you get one big enough for a great dane, but you use it on pomeranians or tea cup chihuahuas, then it would make sense that it would be ok
but i'd ask the vet first
good luck
Each dose if formulated and dosed for one size dog. If you put to much on one dog then you will not have enough for the other.
Get the right size of each of your dogs then you will know that you are fully protecting each dog correctly.
NO. It would be too hard to distribute it evenly and even if you found a way to distribute it, without it being the correct amount for your weight of a dog, there is a chance that you don't apply enough and it may wear off before the month's end. I don't know what would happen if you over-medicated your dog but I'm guessing since there are doses based on weight it's possible to over-medicate too. It would be better for you to buy the correct dose size for your weight of a dog. If you have multiple animals the same size, you would be able to use the same box, just a new application for each of them.
Yes you can. BUT you have to get the measurements correct - how are you going to do that? The practical problems are why everyone recommends against it. You could easily end up giving one dog not enough.
It's not accurate enough to give each dog "so many" drops. You have to measure in mg or other similar units. Those tubes are awkward to work with at best when splitting them up.
I suggest confining these types of experiments to flea control, etc., and not risking making a mistake with heartworm preventative or anything that critical.

Flea & Tick drops for dogs?
Do anyone know how to use Hartz ADVANCED CARE 4 in 1 Flea %26 Tick Drops Plus+ for Dogs and Puppies
Answers:
Do NOT use Hartz flea %26 tick products (or any other OTC product) on your dog. They are a waste of money, ineffective and are dangerous to your dog. They can cause serious skin irritation, skin burns, neurological problems, seizures and even death. They contain a highly concentrated pesticide taht should NOT be used on your pets. I can't tell you the number of very serious problems we have treated at the hospital because of these OTC products.
The only safe and effective flea %26 tick product to use on your dog is one from your vet.
I agree...Don't use Hartz. It is not a good product. I think the best flea and tick product is Frontline.

Hartz products are very dangerous to dogs %26 cats!! Here is a site you can read for yourself http://www.hartzvictims.org
I use FrontlinePlus for my Dogs it is safe and it works!
I lost a Dog to Tick Fever a few years ago and it was a really schock to me and my Family, I have not seen a single Tick or Flea since I started using Frontline Plus for Dogs...you buy them from http://FrontlinePlusDrops.com or http://TickDrops.com for the very best deals and use their coupon code to save even more..
This is speaking from first hand experience.
