There are varied flea products that flood the market today. Flea Shampoos, Flea Collars, Flea powders and sprays, oral medications and topical ointments are available. Make sure to check on the chemical ingredients. Following package directions is important most especially when it comes to using over the counter products and medications. Always check the label for use on the particular pet, whether dog or cat since cats are usually highly sensitive to drugs and chemicals. You cannot use a dog flea shampoo on cats, so be very careful to read labels and instructions. Also Flea – comb your pet twice every three-days to brush-off those fleas away.

Conduct an All-Out Flea Control on Your House and Backyard – After applying flea shampoos and other medications, look around you and disinfect all areas in the house especially those places that your pet frequently stays. Only about 10% of the fleas are on your pet and the remaining 90% which is the form of eggs, larvae and pupa and of course, a few adult fleas may be all over your pet’s carpet, bedding and soft furnishings. Missing-out on these key areas will not solve the problem in fact can aggravate the situation in a matter of time.

Apply Flea Prevention Methods – “Prevention is better than cure.” There are products that not only destroy fleas and completely wipe them out but also provide a period that still kills flea larvae for up to 4 weeks per application. Frequent use the whole-year round is the best prevention there is.
