Anything with permethrin works well but takes 4 to 7 days to take full effect. You can find it at most feed stores and it's safe for dogs but NOT FOR CATS. If you have a cat that might lick your dog, don't use it. Otherwise, it's great. Here's a link for more info.

there are a number of organic flea and tick repellents. regrettably, none of them artwork nicely worth a flipflop. Frontline is not any longer working besides because it as quickly as did. the corporate is making an attempt to reformulate it and was hoping, final I heard, to return out with a sparkling formula via the top of the 365 days (or maybe via spring?). you have different recommendations. Flea Dip is diluted in accordance to the instructions and sponged on. it fairly is messy and you could desire to maintain it out of the eyes, ears, nostril and mouth (yours, too) yet some manufacturers, mutually with HiLo have low scent and are solid for 30 days. Adams Flea and Tick Mist with IGR kills fleas and pre-grownup fleas. you could spray it on canine and cats and around the domicile. Used in accordance to instructions, a solid thorough application of this product can final 2 months or extra. If it would not look to final long sufficient, you could merely use it back. There are additionally issues like Capstar, which would be top used on a daily basis (yet is expensive), benefit, shampooing the canine as quickly as a week with something like Mycodex Shampoo with 3x Pyrethrins, and your vet could produce different, extra effective ideas.

A tried and true cheap remedy for fleas and ticks that I learned as a kid growing up many, many years ago was plain ol' regular garlic.

As a kid growing up in the southwest, I used to watch my dad give our family outside (free roaming) dog some crushed up garlic in his dog food.

He wrapped this up in a piece of gravy soaked bread and put it into the dogs' food.

I've done this with all my dogs since then and I have no "critter" problems on my dog.

Only the more expensive ones are going to be really good at being waterproof. Advantix works very well for me. I have no issues with it not working for the whole month despite the dogs getting wet & having baths, etc.

Don't use anything other than stuff you can buy at your vet. The other kinds can SERIOUSLY hurt even kill your animal. I have a black lab and a golden retriever I use frontline PLUS!!! it works great haven't seen a flea or anything since i started using it.
