  1. How old are the pups? old enough to get bathed?

    I would first CLEAN.Clean all the carpets/floors,couches,beds everything that fleas/flea eggs can be hidden in.I would also spray the perimeter of the yard.(careful to keep all pets inside until it dries/careful not to let them l**k at it.they probably won't)

    Then give the pups a bath with flea shampoo.Be sure to take care of the problem as a whole otherwise it's a vicious cycle!


  2. NO!

    Read the warning. It probably says something like 'hazardous to humans or pets.'

  3. I'd call a vet, to see what if anything would be safe. I wouldn't trust the lives of my dogs with strangers over the net.

    Edit- regardless of what the other poster said , flea treatments are usually chemicals. Please consult your vet before using anything.

  4. Go to the market and buy a couple of boxes of 20Mule Team Borax.  Vacuum your carpets really well, then sprinkle heavily 20 mule team borax all over and rub with a clean broom into the carpet.  Wait 48 hours and then vacuum again.  This smothers the fleas and eggs and is completely non toxic.  It's the same thing FleaBusters uses.  After you treat the carpeting, give the pups a bath and treat the mom's with advantage or frontline.  Will kill the fleas on mom, and ultimately on the pups and will not harm the pups.
