Facts about Flea Medicine & Bite Relief OintmentsDuring May & June 2009, I noticed San Diego has had a bad flea problem. While it can be tempting to use commercial
flea treatments, many of these are loaded with chemicals which can be harmful to your pet & your family. The are so
harmful in fact that the employees of the manufacturer must wear PROTECTIVE CLOTHING & RESPIRATORS.
Furthermore, many pet parents are reporting these types of treatments ARE NOT WORKING at all or for only a few weeks
vs. the month as stated on the package. It is my belief that fleas are becoming immune to these types of treatments and
we need to try something new. For more flea treatments options that are safe for you & your pet, please read our May &
July newsletters.
Already, had a flea bite that is "bugging" your pet? HOLD ON before you go reaching for traditional flea bite relief
ointment or medicine. Some contain steroids which could suppress your pets immune system and causes problems such
as liver damage, obesity or heart attack. A natural bite relief product you can use is Coconut Oil. If they lick it no problem, many holistic vets recommend coconut oil for its many health benefits.
