Keep Fleas Away from Your Pet
In addition to proper food, frequent
grooming is essential to keep fleas away from your pet. Shampooing with a
mild organic lotion soap will kill many fleas by drowning. Afterwards, a
lemon rinse will tone the cleansed skin, leaving a residual citrus odor
that will help repel fleas for awhile.
To
make such a rinse, slice one whole lemon and drop the slices (peel and
all) into a pint of very hot water. Allow the lemon water to steep
overnight, then remove the pulp by filtering or straining. Sponge the
lemon rinse onto your pet's skin and allow it to air-dry (don't towel).
This treatment is nontoxic and can be repeated daily until the skin
condition improves. |
