Welcome to Gaia! ::

I hate them. Just spent over 100the on fllea meds because reign is allergic and the dog has some that are immune to our normal flea stuff

Pearl didn't have a problem with fleas this year. Only one or two I've spotted. but her biggest problem because she went outside was TICKS.

I do with some assistant from my dad carefully remove and properly dispose of the tick. She is still checked daily for them and we do everything possible to keep them away. This year, she brought 4-5 ticks home. Three was in one week. x~x'

I used the Sentry Naturals Flea and Tick medication and so far, we've been in the clear. it's $15 a box (three applications) from PetSmart. Couldn't get a flea AND tick collar because everyone else locally had that problem. Plus, the Naturals has natural and organic ingredients and Pearl smelled of peppermint for well over a week. (Main ingredient was peppermint oil)
