Fleas are a common but annoying pest that owners of dogs, cats, and other animals commonly have to deal with. There are many different flea treatments available. However, most of the products on the market contain potentially dangerous chemicals. The best method for getting rid of fleas is to use natural, pesticide free techniques. In this article we’ll be taking a look at how to get rid of fleas naturally with vinegar, diatomaceous earth and other home remedies. By using these alternatives you can help relieve your pet’s suffering, kill fleas in your home and get on the road to recovery.

Natural Ways To Kill Fleas In House

Advantage II Flea Control

Advantage II Flea Control is a topical flea treatment for dogs and cats. It kills fleas in all stages of life, including the egg and larvae stages, which makes it faster-acting than many other brands. Advantage II also repels ticks and prevents infestations of biting lice on your pet.

Advantage II Flea Control can be used on dogs over 7 weeks of age, and should not be applied to cats or rabbits.

Fleabusters

Fleabusters is a powder that comes from the active ingredient borax. The product claims to kill fleas on contact and keep them away for up to a year. It is designed to be used on carpets, rugs, and upholstery and can also be used on wood or tile floors with some precautions.

Once the powder has been applied, it should be vacuumed up after it has dried completely in order to remove any excess residue which may build up over time.

Borax

Borax is a natural mineral that can be found in most grocery stores, but watch out: not all borax products are created equally. A good rule of thumb is to avoid brands with the word “Arm & Hammer” in their name. Instead, choose a product that says “20 Mule Team Borax” or “20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster” on the label.

After applying borax to any suspected flea-infested areas, leave it there for 24 hours before vacuuming up the powder with a vacuum cleaner equipped with an attachment designed to pick up fine dirt particles (such as one that uses HEPA filters). Repeat as necessary until you no longer see adult fleas or larvae crawling around your house. Be careful when using borax around pets; some dogs and cats may like the taste of this insecticide and end up ingesting it accidentally if they lick their fur after being bathed in it! Also keep small children away from any opened containers of borax because ingesting large amounts could be dangerous for little ones.

You can purchase 20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster for about $7 per box at most supermarkets or big box stores like Target or Walmart—and remember: don’t buy anything labeled “Arm & Hammer”!

Dawn Dish Soap

• Soak your pet in a solution of Dawn dish soap and water.
• Use it to wash your pet with a sponge or cloth.
• Do not use Dawn dish soap on cats, as it can be toxic to them!

Natural Remedies For Dogs

Baking soda, salt and rosemary

This is a simple yet effective way to kill fleas on dogs. First, you will need to mix baking soda with water until it forms a paste then spread the mixture over your dog’s body and coat them thoroughly. Make sure that the solution covers all areas including between the toes, around their ears and under their armpits. This solution works by dehydrating fleas as they cannot withstand dry conditions which are created by this mixture.

To make things easier for yourself in future, we recommend that you use an old toothbrush so that you can apply the mixture directly onto your furry friend’s fur without risking getting any in your eyes or mouth! Once this has been done leave it on for about 15 minutes before washing off with warm water followed by shampooing them down for good measure (this will ensure any remaining fleas are washed away).

Natural Flea Killer

As with any pest control method, it’s important to keep in mind that natural flea killers take time. You may have to comb daily for a few weeks before the population dies down completely.

If you’re using your own hair as bait for the fleas, be aware that this can get messy—but it will also ensure that any new fleas are caught in the act of biting! To maximize their effectiveness, place some water in a bowl and use an old comb with hairs missing on one side to rub against those remaining on both sides of your scalp (or wherever else you might want to apply them). This makes it easier for dead bugs and eggs to fall off into the water where they can’t crawl back onto you later. While they’re still trapped in soapy solution, toss these little guys outside when done—don’t leave them around where they’ll just start reproducing again!

Once you know where the fleas are, you can begin to treat them.

Once you know where the fleas are, you can begin to treat them. If you’re concerned about your pet, ask your veterinarian for advice on using a natural flea treatment such as diatomaceous earth in their environment.

• Carpeting: Fleas can live for months in your carpet before emerging to bite new hosts and lay eggs. Vacuum carpets thoroughly every few weeks to remove visible fleas and eggs; toss the bag after each use so that no reinfestation occurs from eggs left behind by previous vacuuming sessions.
• Pet bedding: Fleas will often hide within blankets or old towels used by pets as a nesting site—it’s important not only to wash these items regularly but also make sure they’re dry before reusing them again (fleas thrive when moisture is present).
