Replies on #32 Why Wondercide has 1M customers - Vital Animal® § The Natural Path

Hi. The way we have gotten our flea issue under control is bathing our dog weekly, the key here is to use a very good conditioner, my recommendation is anything Igroom or IV San Bernard is great for moisturizing. Also, apply the shampoo to the dog dry while mixed with water, and let sit for 10 minutes, as this will kill the fleas. Then we used Dr Falconers article with the IGR product and Flea stoppers in our small carpeted bedroom, and spray our dog with neem oil. We mix organic neem oil with water and a bit of essential oil otherwise Neem oil really stinks, but it has helped keep fleas under control, we may still find an occasional one with the flea comb but overall our problem has greatly subsided.

Hi, Pamela. You're doing really well, and to fully eliminate that infestation, do a whole-house treatment including the carpets and resting areas for pets when you begin to treat pets daily (keep that up until you don't see any more live fleas) with Wondercide. At the same time, if you have a yard, you would treat your yard with Flea & Tick Yard + Garden twice within a few days to eliminate the fleas outside. Then, you could move into maintenance mode. The 3-prong approach, full coverage, and a little more persistence are key.

You may try to apply Flea & Tick Pets + Home to your pet by hand instead of using a pad so more of the solution reaches the fur. Another trick: brush the fur in the opposite direction of growth, and then apply so Wondercide gets close to the skin where fleas live.

We have three other scents to try if Cedar isn't your favorite. You may find Peppermint or Rosemary more to your liking. Lemongrass is our most vibrant so we'd suggest you try a more mild scent.
