Title: Re: fleas? what works best to get rid of them !! Post by: blakebh on April 15, 2011, 09:53:15 am I use the Orhto and it works good and doesnt cantain the fertilizer! I put 30ml from base of tail to neck making sure to rub it in all the way to the skin(I wouldnt put as much if used on a smaller dog) Just reapply it after you see them start scratchin again. Once a month should do the trick!

Post by: Oly on April 15, 2011, 11:43:14 am I went ahead and treated Dogs and yard last year (February) with Bayer saw ONE flea on a dog about two months ago so I treated everyone again--- its worked GREAT for me, I wont put it on UNLESS I see a flea--- ---so--- thats what? Once a year treatment??? I love the stuff

Title: Re: fleas? what works best to get rid of them !! Post by: Reuben on April 20, 2011, 04:12:58 am The Ortho that I buy has 1.47 active ingredient, it is double strength but cost a little more. You can hook up to water hose and spray around the yard like others have said.
For indoors Enforcer is real good. It comes in a gallon container premixed with a built in sprayer for about 15 bucks. This stuff works real good and breaks the flea cycle. I used this indoors and on my dogs and their sleeping quarters and it worked great. I haven't had to use it once I started using bayer or ortho. Enforcer can be bought at tractor supply (TSC) and it keeps working for almost a year... Title: Re: fleas? what works best to get rid of them !!

Title: Re: fleas? what works best to get rid of them !! Post by: nogalus boy on April 25, 2011, 03:04:12 pm How would you dilute it to spray on your dogs. Im thinking of doing this soon. Thanks

Title: Re: fleas? what works best to get rid of them !! Post by: outlaw14slayer on April 25, 2011, 10:04:54 pm Soaping your individual dogs up with dawn dishwashing soap will kill the fleas. Just lather them up real good and rinse them off. It won't prevent them or keep them out of your yard I don't believe.
