How To Stop Dog Fleas

Pets : Dogs

One of the more unpleasant aspects of having a dog is that you might from time to time experience problems with fleas in the home. These are nasty and can be unhygienic - for both you and your dog.

As a first step, you should ensure that you vacuum very regularly where your dog spends most of their time. This is because the fleas - and their eggs for the next generation of fleas - are more likely to be around this area.
You should also ensure that you wash where your dog sleeps every single day.

Keep the dog as clean and dry as you can at all times - fleas like wet environments the most, particularly for breeding.

Consider using an exterminator if the problem persists or is particularly serious.

Overall practice good hygiene with your dog at all times - this is the best way to stop the problem occurring.

When you vacuum up the fleas do this. Put at least four moth balls in the bag. Then vacuum. When you store your vacuum they won't come crawling back out. The balls will kill them.
