Philosophy on Bug- and/or Spider-Killing

Before you spend the 90 bucks on comfortis - my two dogs are on it and they still have fleas - not as bad as before, but they aren't eliminated.

Im taking a deep breath here. The money we have been spending of flea stuff has really been adding up. But as I look over at my dog, I can visably SEE the damn things crawling on him.

This may sound crazy, but find an Amway distributor in your area and buy a bottle of LOC. It's very mild, organic stuff and I've used it safely even on rescued newborns puppies and kittens.

You'll pretty much have to wash everything...and the animals daily for awhile, because it's not a pesticide. It's an organic cleaner...and a serious wetting agent...so it breaks down the little air bubble that fleas put around them to survive a bath. Basically, you're gonna drown the little buggers.

It's a pain, but it's safe, and it works...and it's not poison. (And no, I'm not an Amway distributor

)
