don't know how big your yard is but the permethrin 10% is still an effective measure . the trick to ridding a yard of fleas when you spay is to mow it , water it and then spray while it's still wet . the watering is to bring the fleas to the top of the grass . other than that there are several granual type of products you can put on the yard via a spreader . and I would make sure and use an insect growth regulator like Martin's I.G. Regulator on it . and yes them SAND FLEAS are a nuisance !!!

I have been lucky...my yard is sandy and no fleas...got to stick with it and kill the fleas and the larvae...enforcer where the dogs hang out works...I used to buy it premixed in a gallon container at TSC and it works great...also works good in the house as well...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...

I had them bad used Bayer Tree and Shrub mixed with Dawn dish soap and they were gone. But now I got them back and ain't even had the dogs out. Guess the birds and squirrels brought them in. I am going to get Comfortis for every dog.
