Hello all, this is my first post and I must say it looks like you have a great thing going on here. I hope to gain some knowledge and maybe give some advice along the way.
Here is the problem.
My sister has two indoor/outdoor dogs (1 german shepherd and 1 border caulie mix), three indoor cats.
Over the past year her dogs had gotten fleas and now the cats have fleas. It has gotten to the point that now the dogs have started losing their hair from itching so bad. They have also lost some weight, not much but a few lbs. You can tell that they are stressed but still play and eat.
She has gone back to the vet numerous times for help and he has given her everything under the sun to try and battle this problem. The dogs have been checked for mange and it was negative. They are on frontline, terminex has treated their yard for fleas, the cats are on frontline even though they do not go out. She had also tried some other kind of pill that was a flea preventative given to her by the vet but it didn't work.
At this point she's getting stressed out because the dogs are stressed. Any ideas on what to do?
