I don't know for sure, but I bet it would! It also kills the lice eggs (or nits) too!
Yes, it does.
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.
I have 9 nine dogs treated each one with frontline expensive crap and it's crap I wasted a bunch of money for nothing dogs have fleas all over them and bathing them or dipping them is a weakened time
Yes same here I used frontline on my miniature foxy and as soon as he went back outside he was full of fleas again so at the moment I don't know what to do I've tried tea tree oil don't work tried all flea treatment don't work
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.
My vet told me frontline , and pet armor are not working, the fleas have built up a resistance to it.I rescue cats and I have fleas for the first time, I've done everything and still have a problem, they are just relentless this year!
Frontline works it's far from crap but if Frontline isn't working for some strange reason try advantage
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
I just used a whole bottle of lice shampoo on my chocolate lab and they killed everything so yes definitely use and also as a repellent use some tea tree oil based stuff to to run through the coat
Does it really kills the fleas or does it nock them out
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
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.
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 got tired of these useless flea treatment not working. so I just used lice treatment on my dog...immediately fleas started dieing...gonna repeat in a few days
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
I used dawn but it didn't work used tea tree oil sprays not affected dog drops not affected or the shampoos nodda
Im going crazy have tried the capstar pills on my dogs gave them 4 doses each didnt do a thing my cat is also going crazy I cant sleep my dogs are crying all night I have gotten vet shampoo Dawn dish soap mother is working I cant afford $60 on a dog for Crap that doesnt work like frontline can the lice shampoo kill fleas and would it harm my Chihuahuas I have three
Once u bathe ur cat or dog u must flea bomb ur house or put salt on ur carpets n floors for 2-3 days then the fleas should stay gone
