Fleas

OMG....ABBY had FLEAS Chat Icon

I NEVER saw them before, and she had a mini ( butt cleaning ) bath yesterday and they werent there THEN..

So, we did go for A walk yesterday, but only a few blcoks from here.

Then I was looking at her before and I saw all these flea eggs! Chat Icon I nearly threw up! And 2 fleas, and then I couldnt look no more, I saw black egg like things all over.

RAN to petco...Spoke to them and we gave her a bath with puppy flea removal and used the comb and shes all good to go, not a trace left. We put the Hartz flea control gel on her back as well.

BUT...Im so scared now....I dont want to let her out of the house ever again!

what do you use to prevent fleas?????

Re: Fleas

This is going to sound dumb but - how do they get fleas? And how do I know if Molly were to have them? Is this something noticeable?

Now you have me all freaked out!

yes they're noticable to the human eye. VERY SMALL THOUGH. I look at Rocky's coat daily to make sure he doesnt have them.

Re: Fleas

Gizmo had a few last week too! I gave him a flea bath and they came out in the water.
So far, no more.

Donna, make sure you vacuum, and wash all of abbys beds and blankets, because there could be eggs or fleas in your house!

For those who asked, you can see them very easily! I brush Gizmo and look through his fur everynight for the fleas and the eggs. Anther reason why I like his hair short.
