Can baby shampoo kill fleas? (question 2!)?

i posted again because i wanted more opinions....





I heard that it would work!


Because I read about it somewhere and thats why I bought it.





What if I use Frontline AND baby shampoo together, will it work?


I also put garlic in my dog's food and im looking for apple cider vinegar!Can baby shampoo kill fleas? (question 2!)?
Okay I said no the first time and that still stands for eggs. But it will kill adult fleas.





Here are some other ideas!

Baby shampoo (or any shampoo) will kill the fleas that are on the dog or cat at the moment of the bath. The problem is that for every flea you can find on your pet at any one time, there are at least 10 fleas in the pet's environment (in your house, your yard, etc.). Shampoo won't leave any pesticidal residue to kill this other 90% of the fleas when they hop back on your pet. Frontline should do the job, but it doesn't work instantly for the same reason-- not all the fleas are on your animal at the same time.
No baby shampoo will not kill fleas.





Many commerical products made specifically to kill fleas, don't kill flea...........because fleas have become ammune to them, which is why things like flea collars are a waste of money.





If your dog has fleas, use Frontline to get rid of them.





If you want to protect your dog from getting fleas, then give your dog x2 brewers Yeast tablets daily ( and together with the garlic you already give) these will protect it getting fleas, ticks and worms. Then you don't have to use chemical products on your dog again.





Don't forget to treat your house, soft furnishings, carpets etc and the dog bed.





Not sure what your obsession is about baby shampoo.............
from my past experience: baby shampoo will not work to kill fleas, but dawn dish soap will, its temporary but the front line will do in the fleas the rest of the way anyways.





My vet says: If you are going to use frontline do it when the fur is dirty, do not do it when freshly washed because the chemicals in it bond with the natural oils in the hair, if the oils are washed out it will wear off fast and not be as effective. If you just washed your pet wait a few days before applying frontline or advantage. Or apply it when they are dirty wait a couple days for it to soak in then wash them.








Also important:


Vacuum your house thouroughly a few times, flea larva live in carpets so to help get rid of the flea issue you need to vacuum a lot.
No it will not. Dawn will, however if you are having a flea problem you need to treat your home and your dog. No you can not use the shampoo together with the frontline.





I would however stop with the garlic, just a note garlic can be toxic to dogs and can cause anemia.





Bathe your dog, make shure to treat your home wash all bedding, topical products like advantage and frontline work with the natural oils in your dog if the dog is wet it will not work if you add this to the shampoo what the point your just washing it off.





Baby shampoo will not kill fleas, you will have a clean dog with fleas,
Listen, get your dog a dog flea and tick shampoo and wash him correctly. You can't wash a dog for several days after you apply the frontline so that obviously won't work now will it? And stop giving your dog garlic as it's toxic to dogs over a period of time, and what's the apple cider vinegar for? Stop trying to self medicate your dog!
Frontline will work without the shampoo. Why are you worried about shampooing the dog if you have put Frontline on him/her? If you want more opinions wait for a different time of day, so different people will be on here answering questions. If you leave baby shampoo on the dog for 10-15 minutes you will suffocate the fleas so it will work.
baby shampoo does not kill fleas. ALl you will succeed in doing is drying out your dog's skin and coat and possibly causing more irritations.





The frontline ALONE will work.








Garlic does not work effectivly. Your dog would have to eat so much that he reeks of garlic.. I mean it literally has to be seeping thru his pores.. that amount of garlic would be TOXIC for your dog... you'd kill your dog before it gets that far.





Vinegar is not going to kill fleas either.. good luck getting your dog to eat that too.
no baby s will not work and mixing it is defeating the purpose frontline is supposed to kill the fleas by getting into the blood stream through the skin and the fleas bit the skin to suck the blood bye bye fleas read the instructions on the frontline packaging and baby shampoo will not kill fleas its nice for their skin but don't wash doggy to much like our own hair strip the natural oils out and that not good for the dog at all garlic and apple cider ? no idea
i have a lot of experience with this


my mom is a dog groomer and we also own 8 dogs


i hope ur not washing ur dog with frontline


cuz ur supposed to out it on the back of there necks so they dont get it off and it will pretect them fully


dont feed ur dog this it will only make him sick


and dont use the baby shampoo its not good for the dogs skin


u can also buy flea and tic spray. and spray this over the dogs bed ur couches [the dog] and if he goes in ur back yard


also if ur able to pull them off burn them and make sure its full burned so it dies [dont burn them on ur dog]


good luck hope i helped =]
I doubt that baby shampoo can kill fleas because fleas require some sort of special medication to be removed from your dog's fur.





Here's a link that can give you more information regard proper flea medication. hope this helps!

Just go to your vet or call him for crying out loud and get something that isn't toxic and harmful to your pet.





Your vet will give you something that actually works! GEEZ! Is that so hard.





Forget all this other garbage. It doesn't work!!!!!
Why don't you just get a flea shampoo and be done with it? With a flea shampoo, you'll be sure to rid your dog of the fleas AND the eggs.
yes but go to a pet store and but some antie flea shampoo it really helps!
nOPE NOPE NOPE if you use dish soap it will tho D; thats what i use you cover your dog in dish soap. look for the tics put a lil more of dish soap weree every tic is and they should die
