How To Have A Flea-Free Dog!
The medicated dip:
If your dog has fleas, I recommend a medicated dip after his bath. You can create a dip with either the citrus fruit extract D-Limonene or the African Chrysanthemum extract Pyrethine. Prepare the dip as is recommended . Remember these dips are safe only when prepared in the prescribed format and concentration.
An oil based dip can be prepared by adding herbal oils to the bath water in the ratio of 20 drops to a gallon of water. "Shoo Oil" and "Cloud Nine" are but some of the oils available in most pet stores.
Between baths
Medicated Powder: Dust him with a mild medicated powder regularly. You can mix Diatomaceous Earth and Pyrethrum Dust in equal proportions to prepare a flea resistant powder for the dog. A word of caution: Avoid exposure of your pet to concentrated Pyrethrum Dust as it is toxic.
Dog spraysto fight fleas are also available. However they need to be used quite often to be effective. Look out for herbal flea repellents which are safer to use. Whatever method or product you opt for, make sure that the vet approves of it. He will assist you to identify the really safe products to buy.
Combing: Use a simple flea comb to regularly brush your dog's coat. This helps prevent multiplication of fleas.
Anti flea food:
Prepare this simple food and prevent fleas. To 1/2 a cup of cottage cheese, add 2 tablespoons bacon grease, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1001U of Vitamin E . Mix the ingredients thoroughly and refrigerate the mix. Add this in a small quantity to his meal every day.
