This is great advice, everyone. I really appreciate it. I'm going to first treat the dogs, especially Boone, who is just so miserable. He USED to be such a gorgeous GSD, and now I'm embarresed to walk him because I feel like a terrible owner since he has so much hair loss and bald spots and hot spots
I thank you all for such good advice. I never thought I'd ever have this kind of problem
Yes there is a plain Fronline product, it was the first of the line produced and only killed the adult fleas (remember that's only 5% of your flea problem). The Fronline PLUS has the additional ingredient.
If at all possible treat all animals in the house at the same time, othewise you'll just get fleas feeding on the untreated animals and laying those 2,000 eggs making fighting the problem take so much longer.
Flea problems aren't just for people that don't care about their pets, they also happen to caring pet owners. It sometimes depends on the area you live in, how good your pet tastes to fleas (sometimes they prefer one pet over another), and weather conditions. Where I live some years we see very few flea infestations, and other years people who have never had a problem suddenly find themselves infested.
Good luck and hope your critters get relief very soon. It's no fun to be itchy.
