Frustrating Fleas

Today is the letter F in the #atozchallenge.
As we are quickly approaching flea season, I felt it appropriate to touch a little bit on preventatives.
Last summer, I made a huge mistake. I didn't take the time to use any flea prevention methods at all. And then it happened - my house, with 3 Siberian Huskies and 3 cats, got FLEAS!
After going through several different treatments, I found the best thing that worked for me was dawn dish soap baths.

Tip: When using dawn dish soap to bath an animal, always be sure to rinse your pet well. If you don't, the dawn can dry out their skin causing them to itch, and of course making them very uncomfortable.

The easiest thing to do of course is to simply prevent them.

Also remember, fleas come from outside. Your yard may be infested with them.
Check out these natural tips on preventing fleas in your yard.


Washing your pets bedding often is super important, not just when you have discovered fleas on them, but washing areas where they sleep can also help prevent them too.

*Fleas are not just a nuisance, they can be a health risk to your pet. {Tweet this!}
So, don't make the same mistake I did, Spring is upon us, and that means the fleas will coming out in full force! Prevent them before they come. You can bet that I won't make the same mistake twice.
