re: Flea treatment for dogs?

Spray inside and outside of home with 7.9% bifenthrin. Spray again every 7 days later for a month. Flea eggs hatch every 7 days so multiple sprayings are necessary.

Bathe dogs with an insecticidal soap every 7 days, for a month.

This. It'll start killing active fleas within hours and protect for like 30 days. Aint cheap...about $30 per pill. I think you need a prescription but your vet should have some in stock. Get one or two from your vet then begin your normal cycle of ordering from Chewy or the like.

Most vets will prescribe capstar pill for current flea infestations. In conjunction with a preventative.

Usually capstar works within 24 hours.

My dogs get heartgard and nexgard monthly. Never any issues.

Buy "Purple Python" cattle tags from Tractor Supply or other Farm Stores.
Staple them to the dogs collar. Eliminates fleas and ticks, for months.
I've used them for years on my beagles.
No problems.

Bravecto. U have to get it from a vet. One pill, last 5 or 6 months. You'll never have a flea problem again. Guaranteed. It's a wonder drug.

Nextguard? Monthly for dogs and ticks.. Great product expensive from Vets.....Solved the cost by buying online from Canada Pet Meds without a prescription same stuff same packaging almost half off.

Get them on Bravecto. It kills fleas and ticks for 3 months. I live in the country and my dogs are all over the woods all the time and I've never found a single flea on them or in the house.

That would be a preventative, not a treatment. The OP needs treatment for active fleas.

Negative.
