| My pet has fleas |
|
There are many different ways to get rid of fleas but not all
products are safe for puppies and kittens.
Please read all labels before using any
product on your pet.
- Flea Shampoos - Kills adult fleas on pet but does not
prevent fleas.
- Fleas Spray- Will prevent fleas for two to three weeks
and may leave a residue.
- Flea Dips - Kills fleas for two to three weeks and may leave a
residue.
- House Treatments - House treatments are an excellent
form of flea control but can be dangerous to your pet if precautions are not taken. ALWAYS
READ ALL LABELS!
- Yard Treatments - Same as house treatments.
- The Flea Pill - The pill taken once a month orally does
not kill the adult fleas on your pet but it prevents the new eggs from hatching. Other
flea preventatives must be used along with the pill to maintain flea control.
- Flea Combs- The flea comb is an excellent method of flea
control on puppies and kittens.
