How to Treat Flea Bites in Dogs

broken image

Getting rid of the flea "community" once they have plagued your pet and the entire household is admittedly difficult, although not impossible, undertaking. Fleas are parasites that will suck a lot of blood out of your pet if it goes unnoticed, and it generally can bring about skin itching as well as minor irritations in your beloved furry canine friend. The problem is that some dogs are hypersensitive to flea saliva and this will cause a barrage of skin scratching and itching spree on your dog, even with just one flea bite.

If you become proactive about it, you will learn how to address flea infestation and this will help protect your dog from unnecessary irritation, discomfort, itching, as well as distress. One of the top ways you can do to prevent a flea infestation in your dog is to use a topical medication that contains an adulticide (a component that kills adult fleas) and IGR (or insect growth regulators) to destroy larvae and eggs.
