I use Ark Naturals Neem Protect Spray http://www.arknaturals.com/product.aspx?pid=363 They sell it in some pet stores & on Amazon
I've never used flea pills. I would never use those. This spray is the ONLY flea preventative I've ever used on my dog. I take him on walks around the neighborhood, and we go to various dog parks once a week. I just spritz him every time we go out (neck, chest, back, bum), and he has NEVER brought home fleas. It's not a pleasant smell (because of the neem), but it works Once the current bottle runs out though, I'm going to try Flying Basset No Flea Spray http://www.theflyingbasset.com/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=37 ...just because I like to switch things up. > > -------Original Message------- > > From: Peggy & The Girls > Date: 1/25/2011 4:28:59 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] > > She has been doing better for the past month.
