How often should you have to use conserve? I used it a couple of weeks ago and it wiped em out . But I just noticed 1 dog with em again....what do you all think?

Did you give it with feed? If not, that dog that has fleas again may have vomited and it didn’t get into his system. I give it once... maybe twice a year. But I wouldn’t give them more than one dose a month.

She may not have gotten a high enough dose... I’ve always done 1cc per 10 lbs and never had fleas come back that fast.

I have several bottles of dominion 2L but haven’t used any...

I spray the yard during mosquito season once a year and maybe twice depending if they get bad...I mix bifen  XTS with yard guard 50/50...it takes a total of 20 minutes to spray front and back yards to include up the house walls and kennels...I also spray in the dog houses...doing it this way it kills every bug in my yard including fire ants and fleas...doing it this way and all my dogs do not have fleas...all my dogs are on concrete so that probably helps...

Rough Curs...maybe I said that in another thread but I don’t recall...

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...

Concrete definitely helps, dogs on chains are in the dirt, which dries their skin out, dogs on slabs don’t get dried out and their hair always seems to be greasier than a dog on dirt and fleas can’t stand oily greasy hair...


Are the fleas coming back or did she just have some jump on her that haven’t bitten her yet and ingested the medicine?

Sorry it was Semmes that said the 3cc per 50 lbs...not sure if there coming back or just her kennel.  It started with her getting 6 opossum in a week in her kennel.  Then spread to everyone. I saw some crawling on her I'll check again maybe they had not bit her yet. Stuff definitely works though.

I used half what was recommended by other folks on here just cause I’m cheap lol and it worked for me immediately and so far permanently. But that first time I did my dogs with it I treated the whole yard and runs at the same time with a spray bottle and some of the dominion 21 I had left and mixed it pretty doggone hot.
Fleas have a two week life cycle so what you are see is probably adult life stage fleas that have morphed from the larva form that were down in the dirt and leaves. The larva don’t feed from the dogs, they eat pet dander and other stuff in the dirt, so were probably not exposed to the spinosaid in the conserve yet.

So here’s the update... I ended up doing two treatments of the dominion 2l, about a week apart. First one was 1.25cc’s down the back, the second treatment was 1.25cc’s on the belly, both tunes I rubbed it in good. I also sprayed around the kennels. Originally it killed them off the dogs but they were still on the ground and would get on my legs. I ordered the conserve SC, but now I haven’t even used it because the fleas disappeared. I guess it just took a little while for all of the new life cycles to die off. I haven’t seen a flea in about 2 weeks. I’m almost out of the dominion, so next time around I will give them the conserve SC.
