Hi Tosha, 

I found a natural flea remedy recipe on a Canadian Jack Russell
breeders web site. 

It said: Cut a lemon into quarters and place in a pint jug. Cover the
lemon with boiling water and let it steep overnight. Next day you have
a flea repellent that you can use in a spray bottle. Spray all over
your dog remembering especially behind the ears and around the head
generally (careful of eyes), around the base of the tail (once again
keep away from delicate bits) and under your dog's `armpits'. 

I hadn't personally tried it, but the woman was really big into
natural remedies. I guess the lemon oil in the skin and something in
the lemon itself must release something important into that boiling
water overnight. 

If it doesn't work - nothing lost except a couple cheap lemons. Since
we can eat lemons - and it is watered down - I wouldn't think this
would be too harsh for a puppy. 

Best, 
Lynn in Wi
