    Live in a flea/tick infested area, but do not use pesticides on my dogs. Frontline has caused many reactions and... if it tells me to rinse it off myself, I don't really want to put it on my dog. I use a combination. Sometimes I use Cedarcide

    which works awesomely. Kills on contact. And I also use a neem oil. You can also rub edible diatomacious earth on your dogs for protection. Sure, I have to do this a lot more than once a month but it's worth it to me. I'll take the time.

On the list I'm on, people post recipes for a smelly (in a good way lol) concoction that keeps fleas away. A mix of different herbs and essences etc. I'd probably go that route first. I know what you mean though, if it's a huge problem chemicals are the best way to go to kill them. I just hate the idea of them.
    Wow, that must be nice having no flea problems! I couldn't imagine lice though, those are awful. At least you can use natural routes to get rid of fleas, I'm envious!

    I'll have to look into some of this stuff. Sounds like interesting alternatives.

    I haven't had any problems with Frontline on either dog or cat though, so I'm not sure what we'll end up doing.
