Did you know that for every ten fleas you see on your pet there could be 25,000 flea eggs in your house? Battling fleas may seem like an impossible war, but with the right products and information you may never have to battle them again.
Fleas go through four stages as they grow: eggs, larvae, pupae and adults. Only the adult flea may be found on your pet. The others live in carpeting, on furniture, in the yard or any other place to which you pet has access. To win against fleas you must attack all these stages.
There are many easy to use products to help you win the war. Bio-Spot is a good spot-on topical flea killer and repellent. One spot on your dog's or cat's back will combat fleas for up to three months. This product uses the natural oils in your pet's coat to repel and attack fleas. The flea does not even have to bite your pet to be effected. The Adams company makes a carpet and furniture spray which kills all stages of the flea from egg to adult. Just one good use can destroy the entire flea population in your home. Just for backup, use Adam's yard spray, especially around your dog's kennel area to prevent home re-occurrences.
These flea control products will also control ticks.
