Besides apple cider vinegar treatment, I would also recommend making a spray of Lavendar. Get a small spray bottle, and fill with warm water. Add two drops of lavender oil and shake well. Simply spray a small amount on your dogs coat to help deter fleas from living there. You can spray this mixture on them a couple times a day if needed. Be sure to avoid spraying it in their eyes.Replied By Shawna (Bakersfield, Ca) on 01/07/2012
I started washing my dog with Lavender baby shampoo and rinsing her in diluted ACV 3 days ago and she has completely stopped scratching. Her fleas were so bad she has open sores all over from scratching. I put a little bit of it in her drinking water but know my kitten won't drink it so today I started misting them both with the diluted ACV. It cured the problem quickly so hopefully it will keep them away as we haven't noticed any around the house yet. Good luck to everyone searching for solutions, it's nice to see so many people who want to use only natural products!Replied By Amanda (West Virginia ) on 10/18/2015
So I've seem to pick up a flea army in our home!!! Driving me my kids and our pets insane!! The cat is losing hair and none of us is getting sleep. I tried flea bombs three times!!! It is not helping. My mom helped me find vinegar as a solution. So I've been placing it in a spray bottle and spraying on everything. Rugs furniture and floors directly. I thought it was helping but today we got home and 100s jumped on our legs!! I've also been bathing pets obsessively. Washing all blankets and sheets pillows and keeping all laundry done! Am I doing something wrong?! ?! How long does this take?! I'm going on two months with this problem and can not afford professional help right now!! Please any advice!!!Replied By Jacqueline (Texas) on 06/09/2016
You didn't mention spraying your pets. You must spray them if you want results. Also, you said "vinegar" but it needs to be "Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar" to spray on your pets. The same thing in their water. And Vaccum!Replied By Anne (West Lothian) on 12/17/2016
Was it the Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother? And always dilute it before putting on your cat/dog.Replied By Bonny (Ellsworth Ks) on 07/24/2017
Does it have to be raw organic apple cider vinegar or can it be just the apple cider vinegar and still work?Replied By Suseeq (Sydney, Australia) on 07/24/2017
listerine the brown one 50/50 water in spray bottle, brewers yeast internally and garlic work well together you can rub brewers yeast into coat. Fleas hate yeast
