What about using diatomaceous earth (food grade) around the parimiter of your house? Had fabulous results of infestations (of several things) go away after we did that.

It's said you can use it right in your dog's coat, but i can't trust doing that. Not when they sniff themselves, and i rub into their fur, etc.

If you did do that all i could suggest is washing your dog with a paste made of it. Rinsing it all out. Sure, the fleas wouldn't die and fall out right away, but they eventually would. You'd also have to do a second wash for when the eggs were to hatch.


(I still swear by it for deworming. )
