Doing A Flea Bath Etc.. at 2am.. grrrrrrrr

[pirate_girl]

For crying out loud, we get snuggled down for the night, then she starts digging and biting... so I flip her over and look at the belly.. fleas!
Did a comb through first, and trapped some, then decided I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight with a buggy hound-child in my bed.

She must have gotten them from the park, because I treat the yard with spray after each mowing.
AND I've just vacuumed and sprayed too, at this hour. lol

She's not happy over this late night interlude.. haha










I think her ears have dried out by now, but my nice plush blankie is dog wet.. LOL

Fleas are a PIA Lollie. I hope you got themearly because once in the house, they are hard to irradicate.

In the end, the puppy enjoyed the attention,if not the intteruption in her routine.

Boric acid sprinkled in the carpet breaks the cycle. Dries out the little devils.

That sucks Lollie. We use Trifexis. It prevents heartworms, kills fleas and prevents infestations and it also treats and controls intestinal worms. Once a month in a pill. Works great for our babies. Just make sure you give it to her with a meal.

Ah! the lengths we will go for the comfort and company of our special needs Children.

You may get lucky and she just got them from last night's walk. When the weather gets chilly them jump on any warm body. Brush your pants legs when you get back also. Hope you don't have them in bed tonight. ......
