My 10 week old chihuahua may have fleas...although i have never seen but maybe 1 or 2..?
Is the prescrition flea medication Ovitrol to strong for her? I just spray a good amount onto a dry clean washcloth and wipe her down with it. Is this ok?
I forgot to add that she only weighs 1and1/2 lbs.....and most likely won't get any bigger than 3 lbs, according to my vet...thx!
and....she has the shortest of the shortest hair...you can practically see her skin thru her coat...

if youre dog is scracthing on the neck for fleas and its still a puppy she's just not used to the collar. I though the same thing when i had a puppy. and yes a spray is good enough since shes small. oh and dont take her outside until she is 4 months old becuse she might get parvo a disease ( just a reminder)

If you think your dog has fleas, i suggest you try Frontline, If you dont put the medication on the dogs skin then it may not work because the fleas bite the skin not the fur, it sounded to me as though you put the medication on her fur.
Good luck :)
