Call a cop?

Ultra quick solution is wash the dog vigorously with Dawn dishwashing liquid. You can powder down your carpets w Sevin dust and vacuum after.

Then prevent with whatever else you want to do re: pills or topical.

Boiling Scalding water

We just found a few fleas on our dogs. My dogs never had fleas before and now all the sudden both are covered. We treated them with Frontline plus. Gonna have to see about spraying the yard, but with the cooler weather shouldn't they be gone?

And the wife went for this? Who cares if it gets rid of fleas.

Frontline and Advantage both kill fleas in the environment so you might not need to treat the yard or bomb the house.

If the dog gets on your bed, wash the bedding. The wash will drown the fleas and the dryer will kill any surviving eggs.

Don't use Frontline/Advantage on a regular basis. Fleas will build up a tolerance to it. Use them when fleas show up and switch back and forth.
