I don't know for sure, but I bet it would! It also kills the lice eggs (or nits) too!

I have a Yorkie and she is kind of infested with fleas but I have lice treatment. Will it be safe for her?

If your dog is infested with fleas then shampoo will not help. You need to get a good treatment like Advantage Multi to use once a month. Don't be cheap.

Try using rosemary tea or spray. If you can't find it in a store, make a tea by boiling fresh rosemary and let it steep. When it cools off, you can either spray or dip your dog and it works as a repellent and calms their skin.

Try soaking a fabric dog collar (nylon etc) in the tea tree oil. Will need to be re-soaked every other week or so.

You can buy a heartworm pill from a vet but the dogs must be checked for heartworm it costs apr 14 bucks a month if they can be treated this pill will wipe out a flea infestation fast and effective unfortunately the heartworm test is 30 plus office visit so its best to bring all pets together good luck

Which lice shampoo did you use? The fleas are horrid out here and everyone is having a hard time with them, we are in the country, and Advantage is not doing anything.

Tea oil is poisonous to dogs and cats. Even just breathing it can caused them to become very sick, so not a good idea

Here I buy the Dollar General brand its reasonable and pretty cheap you get 2 bottles for $8.00 works good a simple head lice shampoo on fleas believe it!

There is a natural repellant for fleas its a cinnamon oil will not harm pets! Can be purchased on Amazon

Tea tree oil is posion to animals

YES, and the Dollar General brand also has an all natural spray for kids that you spray on and wear it all day and rinse it off after 8 hours. This is a great option and it kills them just like the shampoos do without harsh chemicals and you can also get 2 large (approx 20 ounce) bottles for $8.00.

Very effective in obliterating all of them. I use it and I spray the inside of the doghouse as well

Cinnamon oil is toxic to dogs

We use the Advantage for the largest dogs you can purchase on all of our pets no matter their size its blue I think and it's the only Advantage we find works. The lower doses for smaller animals are just a waste of money. ( When flea season is bad we treat twice 3 days apart for the first treatment but ONLY if they already have fleas)... If they do not have fleas before treating them during the Spring/Summer months its the usual one dose treatment monthly but only using the Advantage for larger dogs, we live in the country and have had nothing but success this way...

I am not sure the Vet would recommend it being used twice 3 days apart but it works great and we only have to treat from May until November...

You should dish washer soap on dog it's best to use dawn because it has chemicals that work to kill fleas after the bath you wanna give them a pill or a medicine that is repels any type of blood sucker
