Dog Fleas - How To Stop Fleas From Infesting Your Dog
Do you see your dog constantly scratching his fur? Or is your dog showing signs or discomfort and agitation? If so, check your dog at once, it may be suffering from ticks or fleas infestation.
Flea infestation is very common to dogs. Not only is it irritating, it can also endanger the health of your canine friend. Mild cases of infestation may cause skin problems like allergy dermatitis, an allergic reaction to flea saliva. Then again, there are dogs that suffer from skin soreness and tenderness because of repeated scratching and biting. Also, some dogs that are infested by fleas suffer from severe health problems as anemia, tapeworms and other diseases that are toxic due to flea bites.
Upon detecting fleas to your dog, you should respond to it at once by taking your dog to your veterinarian or cure the infestation immediately before it gets worse.
Treating flea infestation is exceptionally easy. There are various anti-flea medications available in the market. Nevertheless, treating your dog with synthetic medications may cause destructive side effects such as dry skin, inflammation, vomiting and diarrhea and liver damage. To avoid these destructive side effects, it is better to use natural methods.
Home remedies in treating dog fleas are getting popular these days due to large number of destructive side effects of synthetic anti-flea medications that has been reported. Pet owners are now looking for natural ways to eradicate their dog's fleas because of safety issues. Moreover, these natural dog medications are not only safe but very effective as well in getting rid of the infestations. Some of these natural medications are:
Natural essential oils - This is one of the most popular natural flea medications. Some samples of natural essential oils are tea tree oil, peppermint oil, lavender oil, neem oil, eucalyptus oil, citronella and cedar wood oil. These essential oils are natural pest repellant and they are very effective in treating dog's fleas and ticks as well.
For a more active management, rub the dog's coat with natural oils gradually. Others like it better to combine these essential oils to dog's wash. Some dog owners prefer to spray these essential oils to their dog's choker.
Juices and Spices - Lemon juice and Aloe Vera juice are very helpful in treating fleas and ticks. Try combining one of these juices to cayenne pepper, a common household spices. The combination is an effective flea-killing aerosol. Moreover, 1 cup of aloe Vera juice mixed with 1 drop of any essential oils is also helpful in killing ticks and fleas.
Diatomaceous earth - The Diatomaceous earth is a popular natural sedimentary rock. It is also known for its insecticide properties. It is effective in treating ticks and fleas without leaving damaging side effects to dogs. Ticks and fleas eat diatomaceous earth, but little did they know, it will cause them to dehydrate and ultimately die. Diatomaceous earth can be directly rubbed against the dog's coat or it can be pulverized and be used as natural flea powder.
Flea comb - This is very powerful in getting rid of dog's fleas. Use it as a regular comb and dip it into a frothy water to dislodge the fleas. Some dog owners instead of dipping the comb into frothy water, they use juice and spice sprays like those mentioned before.
Dogs generally suffer from flea infestation. Good news, it is treatable and preventable. On the other hand, be careful when using synthetic medications because they contain ingredients that are damaging to dog. Instead, use natural treatments and home remedies to eradicate fleas safely and effectively.
