HHOSS Wonder Woman
Spotted some of the evil little blighters on Juno the other week; we bathed both dogs in flea shampoo, gave them their flea treatment early (Advocate I think) washed the bedding, sprayed the house and office, and thought we had it under control. Suzie definitely was better, but Juno continued scratching, especially around her nipples, so I did a nipple inspection and she had some dried blood where she's been scratching so much, also a little around her lady parts where she must have been chewing. Mr JB took her to the vet, who pronounced that she still has fleas, persistent things. He has given us some Bravecto, some steroid cream for the sore bits, and instructions to wash bedding again but he said that the spray can cause irritation, so not to use that.
When Mr JB was out with them yesterday, he was talking to a fellow dog walker who said she is a vet, and she uses the serestro flea collars instead which work for both fleas and ticks, and last for a few months apparently.
So my question for the HHO AAD community is...are they any good? I presume there's no point getting one now until next spring as hopefully the winter weather will kill them all off shortly.
Also, any other ideas for easing Juno's scratching as it hasn't stopped yet!
