Hi Katy neighbors! I'm a dog mom & I took my lil female to the groomer. I freaked out because I mentioned to the groomer the she has bedn scratching excessively for about a week. The groomer took my pup back to bathe & style with a cute cut. They called saying her bath resulted in them discovering she has fleas. Unfortunately we are a three dog household, so we determined all the dogs have fleas. Now we are treating the dogs and spraying everywhere, including the backyard. It this flea thing happening to other Katy families? We see the products are selling fast to treat the backyard, etc. Thoughts & comments please.

Fleas are most active during the warmer months. Get flea preventative from your Veternarian to put on your dogs monthly. (Flea collars are useless in Texas weather. ) If you are having difficulty finding sprays, etc, you can ask your Vet which products he/she recommends. Treat inside your home first, then treat your yard. Fleas cause Parasites and other health issues.

no flea thing here. we give our dogs monthly flea pills from our vet. we also have regular pest control come and take care of our yard. easier to prevent than to get rid of, in my honest opinion.

@sheila98west : So sorry, I meant to write Parasites, NOT Heartworms. Mosquitoes cause Heartworms. I should have proofread my response.
Sorry for the confusion. I will correct my response.
