As summer transitions into fall, fleas have no problem making themselves at home in your house! Fleas are bothersome and can cause your cat or dog to scratch excessively. This can lead them to develop allergies and when allowed to go untreated can leave you with a lot of discomfort and sleepless nights. For these reasons, it’s important to treat your home for fleas as soon as you notice there’s an infestation. You again? You poor thing. You’ve already done everything you can to get rid of your fleas but your efforts were to no avail. I bet you’re desperate by now. That’s why I’m here — to help you out. Even though the first things that come to mind when it comes to treating flea infestations are doctors and drugs, don’t lose hope yet! There are plenty of ways to get rid of fleas without having to use treatments that are harsh on your body and wallet. Home remedies for fleas are much more effective when compared to commercial products. There is no comparison because the one thing missing from these commercial products (besides a lot of chemicals) is that it doesn’t kill the eggs. Fleas can lay up to 50 eggs a day, so unless you treat your pets and home with something that will kill the eggs, you’ll be dealing with fleas again in a month or less. I am often asked about flea treatments for dogs & cats by readers, who are desperate to find alternatives to flea collars, flea powders and monthly pet meds. I’ve listed below a handful of the best home remedies for fleas which have worked well for us over the years. Some involve a little forethought & preparation – whilst others can easily be added to your daily grooming routine to control fleas naturally.

Best Home Remedies For Fleas

Introduction

Fleas are a real problem for pet owners. Fleas can cause allergic reactions in pets and even carry diseases like tapeworm. Not to mention that fleas are just annoying! If you notice your pet scratching all the time and see some tiny, dark brown bugs on their fur, they probably have fleas. There are a lot of products on the market to help you get rid of fleas, but some home remedies can do the trick and save you money at the same time.

Best Home Remedies For Fleas

Fleas can be a real pain for your pets and for you. If you find fleas on your pet, there are ways to get rid of them yourself.

• Kill the fleas by bathing them with regular shampoo in the tub or sink. The water should be warm but not hot – if it’s too hot, it will cause injury to their skin. You may want to put some towels down in case one of your pets tries to jump out of the water!
• Wash all bedding with hot water and detergent until all traces of dog hair are gone from your home – this way you’re sure that no more fleas will come back inside again later on when they might otherwise have been hiding among these items instead of being killed off during treatment time!

Fleas are tiny insects that live on the bodies of pets, such as cats, dogs and rabbits. They feed on the blood of their hosts by biting them repeatedly.

If you have fleas in your home, your pet can become irritated with all that scratching and biting. You may already know about this problem if you see your dog or cat scratching itself often. If not treated quickly enough, flea bites can cause anemia (a condition where there is not enough red blood cells in the body). Fleas also carry tapeworms that can infect people and other pets; they also carry other diseases like plague!

Flea allergy dermatitis is a skin reaction to allergens found within flea saliva or feces which causes intense itching around your pet’s skin folds (behind its ears), sneezing and watery eyes. This allergic reaction can be severe enough to make it difficult for your pet to sleep comfortably at night due to constant itching which leads many people to use over-the-counter medicines such as antihistamines like Benadryl but these medications usually don’t work well against these types of allergies so we’ll focus instead on natural remedies like apple cider vinegar which has been proven effective against most types of allergic reactions including those caused by parasites such as ticks (which aren’t technically insects)

Conclusion

These home remedies will help you to get rid of fleas. And they require few supplies, no special skills and it’s a fraction of the cost. It’s also environmentally friendly because you’re not adding chemicals to your home or pets.
