I have tried everything and I cannot get rid of the fleas on my dog.

I would order frontline spray and do it once a month. Throw salt all over everything, the carpet, under your sheets, etc. Put a flea collar in the vacuum bag, and vacuum all the time. I always wash the dogs in dawn detergent and leave it on for ten minutes. Then rinse and rinse and rinse and rinse and flea comb while they are wet. Frontline Spray is cheaper than the topical spot treatment but the spot treatment might work faster. You can do a pill from the vet that will kill all the fleas in 24 hours but this is just to get the infested dog clean. It has no residual effects.
If I just had one dog, I would probably use the frontline topical spot treatment once a month. Go to earthclinic.com for more ideas on home remedies and other forms of treatment of fleas. Robyn
I don't like Frontline because the flea has to bite before it works. I use Adams on my dog. I have also ordered some Lavender oil. Fleas can't stand the stuff and it's good for irritated skin. (Also good for headaches!)
I have 5 dogs n 5 cats. Last year i had a bad flea infestation and was desperate. No matter what I did , couldn't get rid of the lil pests. This year i got some cedar spray from cedarcide and this works. no fleas-mites-ticks etc. is all natural and not harmful to pets.
Got to the vet and they have this pill that you can give to your dog once a month I live in Siloam Springs, AR also and they charge I think $13 for one pill but it works and you don't have to worry about it again until next month
Hello, Can you take you pets to a groomer? Then apply advantage every 3 weeks, that should do the trick. Good luck
