Pets and Their Pests

The problem with having so many pets is keeping up with flea control.  Because Joey goes out he usually brings little visitors in (Fleas) which he then kindly passes onto the rest of the pets.  I have spent a lot of money over the years on flea treatments and find the fleas seem to be immune to these remedies recently.  The groomer who I take Marley too recently suggested Garlic tablets as the fleas hate the taste when they bite and then jump off and die.  The tablets take around a month to work so I will update you on Marley's itchiness over the coming weeks.  If anybody has any other tips for ridding pets of pests please leave me a comment - anything is worth a try!

    The flea drops I buy for my dog Lucy have always worked. I too was told about Garlic,but had to soak it in oil. It never worked. Do you get the garlic in tablet form for Joey.
