My mom and I use comfortis on our dogs and it works great. Comfortis is the new pill they came out with not too long ago. I'm not sure if you can order it from somewhere but if you can its much better then puting messy stuff on their necks and them having bald spots from it. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

One they get in the house they are hard to get rid of. You will have to treat the house in some way along with the yard. The Frontline only works on the dog. Since it is not working you can try advantage. You can order online. Try putting a cheap flea collar in your vacuum bag or canister, this will kill the fleas you vacuum up. What did you treat your yard with? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of mybug78 Sent: Saturday, October 16, 2010 6:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] New to grp =) We own a 1yr old chihuahua named Lovebug. I wanted to find a grp experienced with chihuahua's to ask about treating for fleas. Weve never had a flea problem and what we are doing isnt really helping! We have had Bug on Frontline Plus but its not working! And now we have fleas all over the house! I vaccum at least 3 times daily and empty the canister into a bag and place it in the garbage out in the garage (so if they get out they cant get back in the house) We have treated our yard and everytime he goes outside he gets more fleas UGH I really dont care to use the Frontline anymore as he is having reactions to it! He now is getting bald patches where the treatment is applied. We have tried flea baths, powders and spray and powder treatments in the house and still no luck in getting rid of the little boogers! They used to spray our town every Sunday for Fleas/Mosquitos but stopped this year due to exspences of the chemicals but from what I understand they will be doing it again starting next year because of so many complaints to the city and also to the only vet in town about how many homes are now flea infested! Any advice? We live in a small town in Iowa and only have 1 small vet clinic which only carries Frontline Plus. I refuse to keep spending $15 a month on flea treatment that is not doing anything! If it was helping kill the cycle of them we wouldnt have such a problem in the house with fleas! ------------------------------------ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today!
