Once they are established within your house, they not only come for your pets, but for you, too. Consequently preventative measures are the best solution to the problem and help nip it in the bud before it even begins. A number of options are available including flea combs, pills, biospot, flea shampoos, dips, flea collars, and sprays. Flea combs are an interesting option. Unfortunately, you don t get all and those that you do remove are simply in your house or on your lawn, in which case they are free to again infest your pet.
Pills are a new idea.
Unfortunately it doesn t seem to work, for what reason I don t know. Biospot makes your dogs smell sweet for a couple of days and it works for about a week, then you can forget about it. If you find that your dog has become infested with fleas, there s always the option of bathing them and using special flea shampoos. These are toxic to fleas but are safe on your pets. However, like a number of other options, they aren t preventative.
