I used to be a pet groomer for a career. Honestly just in case anyone needs to know; you can use any pet safe shampoo to get rid of fleas. you just need to make sure to leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes. and make sure to wait at least 2 weeks before you give them another one. It may dry their skin out. Just some little tips. hope it may help someone! thanks for the helpful info. and God Bless!

I have found that orange peels work great for fleas on dogs and lemon peels on cats. I peel 2 or 3 oranges (lemons), place the peelings in a large Dutch Oven pan. Cover with water and let boil for about 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off heat, place lid on pot and let sit overnight. Next day, take peelings out, give your dog or cat a bath with the mixture. Make sure your pet gets good and wet. It is best if you do not completely towel dry your pet, but let it dry on your pet. When pet is completely dry, toss on a new flea collar and you are flea free the rest of the summer. I live in rural Okla. and this has helped me fight the fleas. I feed the left over oranges and lemons to the pigs. Have also wiped the orange water on my horses too.

Pure white vinegar will kill fleas on animals, too. We rescued a puppy with a horrible infestation. Soaked the little booger and the fleas died just about on contact. It also helps get rid of potential skin infections.
