Hi Tosha, Just found the exact recipe I was looking for ... instead of quartering the lemon, it actually says to slice the lemon very thinly, including the peeling.
You can see the source of this information here: http://www.working-dog.com/recipes.htm#Lemon%20Skin%20Tonic Lemon Skin Tonic * bring 1 pint of water to a boil and remove from heat * add 1 thinly sliced lemon * allow to steep overnight or all day * strain liquid The liquid can be put into a spray bottle, squeeze bottle or just a container. Apply liberally to the coat of the dog and rub in so that the skin is wet. Lemons are very good for the skin and contain limonene which is an effective insect repellent. The limonene actually dissolves fleas' waxy coating causing dehydration and death of the flea. Sorry for the confusion. Best, Lynn in Wi. My First Sale: $10 off everything at Poochi's Tailor.
