Keep things cleaned up as best you can. Put out some Malrin fly bait. Spray the dogs with Bronco fly spray. Put a little garlic powder in their water buckets.
                                     Good luck.

I read in reader digest that if you take a quart size ziplock baggy fill 3/4 with water and add about 6 pennies when the sun shines on it, it reflects and flies think it's a predator and stay away never had fly problems to try it. Good luck

Tractor supply has some fly traps and they work. The stuff I used before you spay on a wall is not available this year. It appears the whole batch was bad. I mixed termador and sugar and put it in bottles and hung them around. Because they fly out and die I do not know how well it worked for sure. But the combined effort put a big dent in the flies. Now I only have a few flies and it is much better.

We use the insect cattle ear tag's on the collars of the dogs. They work great as long as you have your dogs separated to where another dog can chew on them. If you have your dogs together then i wouldn't try it cause it will make your dogs sick and could even kill them.

My girlfriend brought home a fly trap that looks like a bag with a water soluable bag of bait in it that you fill with water and hang up. I just filled it up adn in seconds had flies setting on the bag and in a few minutes we had our first customers trapped! Here is their link if you'd like to check it out! We got our trap from Lowes! Seems to be good stuff in the 10 minutes I've had ours up!

These are what I used, they are kind of expensive, but you hang it up and forget about it

We're using those bottle fly traps from Atwoods...working great. When they get full my hubby dumps the flies and makes up a lil' homemade concoction of the nastiest, stinkiest things he can round up-still workin, and saves a little $$
