Preparing For Flea Treatment

For Your Pet

• We would suggest washing your pets with a good flea treatment
• You should start your pets on a flea program from the vet or pet store. We do recommend using something like Advantage, Frontline etc. If your pets are already on a program, we suggest you alternate between flea treatments every 2-3 months as this prevents the fleas building up immunity to the one product.

Internally

• We recommend that you vacuum daily until the day of your scheduled appointment.
• Remove goods stored on the floor inside the house and place them up off the floor.

Externally

• Mow the lawn short and soak with water a day before treatment.
• Make sure that the ground is clear of any stored items.
