If you are clueless about how to get rid of fleas on a dog, don’t worry. This is a problem faced by most dog owners, especially when your dog is chronically scratching itself and mounting an allergic reaction. Generally, fleas can be killed by using certain insecticides. But these insecticides are not always effective as the fleas can become resistant to them. Apart from these insecticides, there are many other general house hold chemicals that can be used for eliminating these fleas. Let us take a look at the common home remedies for getting rid of fleas on dogs when nothing works:

Natural Ways To Get Rid Of Fleas On A Dog

Comb your dog with a flea comb.

The second method to use is the flea comb. This is a fine-toothed comb that has been designed specifically to get rid of fleas and their eggs. It works by getting through the hair and removing any pests, so it’s worth investing in one if you don’t have one already.

To use a flea comb:

• Start at the top of your dog’s head and gently comb downwards using long strokes towards its tail. If your dog really dislikes this process, you may want to start from behind their ears or tail as these areas are less conspicuous when there are no visible signs like bloodstains from scratching after being bitten by an insect with sharp teeth like ticks do not leave any chewing marks behind them!
• Repeat until you no longer find any evidence of flea eggs on the fur around their body parts such as under their belly button area where most dogs like rubbing themselves against things because they often feel nice against those places – especially when they’re super tickley sensitive spots between toes too!

Use a citrus spray to repel fleas.

Use a citrus spray to repel fleas.

• To make your own, mix orange oil or lemon juice with water in a spray bottle and shake well before use. You can also purchase natural flea repellants from pet stores that contain citrus oils or citronella (which is derived from lemongrass).
• Always check the label of any product prior to using it on your dog; some ingredients may be harmful if ingested by Fido.
• If you do not want to use an artificial product on your pooch, you can also try making one using essential oils such as citronella and rosemary oil instead of synthetic chemicals found in commercial products. However, always be aware of any allergies your dog might have before using this method!

Using rosemary can help keep your pet from being bitten by fleas.

Rosemary can be used to keep your pet from being bitten by fleas. Rosemary is a natural flea repellent, and it can be diluted with water and applied to your dog’s coat. However, if you have a dog with sensitive skin, it’s important not to use any essential oils or other fragrances that could be harmful for them.

Get rid of fleas by making a cedar oil shampoo for your dog.

• The first step is to make sure that the shampoo you use is free of any chemicals or additives. You can do this by reading the ingredients list on the back of a shampoo bottle. If there are any unnatural ingredients listed, don’t buy it!
• The second step is to apply cedar oil shampoo once a week until the infestation has been killed off completely. Make sure that you use enough water so that it doesn’t dry out their skin, but not so much that their fur becomes too wet or heavy for them to move around easily in (this will make them more susceptible to flea bites).

Garlic may also be used as a natural flea repellent.

You can also use garlic to repel fleas on your dog. However, you will need to dilute it in water before applying it to your dog’s coat because it can irritate the skin if used undiluted. Garlic works best when applied directly to the skin and not ingested in large amounts by your pup, so keep that in mind when using this method of flea repellent for dogs.

• Use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder for better results
• Do not use this remedy on puppies under 6 months old or any animal with a bleeding disorder

Diatomaceous Earth is an effective and natural way to get rid of fleas on dogs.

Diatomaceous Earth is a powder that comes from fossilized algae and is used to kill fleas by drying out their exoskeletons, which makes them dehydrated and unable to breathe. It works by absorbing the oils that coat fleas’ bodies, which makes them dehydrated and unable to breathe.

D-Limonene is another effective way to get rid of fleas on dogs.

D-limonene is another effective way to get rid of fleas on dogs. D-limonene is a citrus oil that is found in orange peels. It’s safe for humans and dogs but not cats, so make sure you don’t try this method if your pooch is feline. To use it, add 10 drops of D-limonene (you can purchase it at most health food stores) to 8 oz of water or 2 oz of alcohol and then pour it directly onto your dog’s fur where he has been bitten by fleas. It may take a few applications before the problem clears up completely; however, this method should work well for most cases of mild infestation by fleas on your pet’s skin

It’s best to use natural products on dogs since they are more sensitive than humans, but even natural ingredients are toxic if ingested in large quantities so keep them away from children or other pets that might lick them up or eat them

Pets are more sensitive to natural ingredients than humans, so it is important to use natural products on your pet in moderation.

Natural remedies like tea tree oil and lavender oil can be used safely when diluted with water and applied directly to the skin of your dog. These essential oils do not pose any risk of ingestion if you apply them correctly, but even if you do not dilute them properly there are still some risks associated with using these products on dogs:

• If a dog ingests large amounts of tea tree or lavender oil, he may experience vomiting or diarrhea as a side effect of the ingestion. This is likely due to the high concentration of these oils in his system rather than an allergic reaction.
• Tea tree oil has been shown to cause liver damage in rats at high doses (more than 100 times what would be recommended for humans), though this information has not been tested on dogs yet so we don’t know if this data applies here either.[1] In addition, many people use essential oils orally without any problems at all despite the toxic effects seen in rats because one person will always react differently from another person depending on various factors such as weight and metabolism rate; therefore it’s probably safer just avoid using this method altogether until more research confirms its safety over time.[2]
