Why do dogs have fleas?

Causes of fleas on dogs:

1. There is no regular deworming. Dogs need to be dewormed regularly for their health. Puppies need to be dewormed for the first time when they are about 25-30 days old, and then once a month until they are half a year old. From the time the dog is half a year old, deworming is scheduled every three months. Dogs are very susceptible to fleas if they are not dewormed regularly.

2. Drill grass and mud. Dogs can get fleas when they play on grass, mud, or come into contact with other small animals. In summer, the parasites in the grass and mud become more active, and dogs are very susceptible to infection when they travel through the grass. Even if dogs stay at home, they may be infected with parasites. People will also act as carriers, bringing parasites and their eggs home through clothes and shoes, and indirectly infect dogs.

3. Not bathing regularly. Dogs also need to bathe regularly in order to keep their bodies clean. If the dog has not bathed for a long time to clean, it is very easy to hide parasites. It is best for dogs to take a bath once a week or two. Use dog-specific shampoo to help keep the dog's skin healthy.

How to get rid of fleas on dogs:

1. Use flea powder to remove it. Sprinkle the flea powder evenly on the dog's hair. This method should be used continuously for 3 to 7 days, and the flea powder is a little toxic to dogs.

2. Wear a flea repellent collar, but this is easy to relapse. Fleas will run to the surrounding environment under the action of the collar's drug, and it will come back when the dog's collar is removed, so you can use the collar while in the surrounding environment. Sprinkle flea powder, and avoid the dog from entering the sprayed environment, and the dog's items can also be washed and dried during this period.

3. Use red medicine soap or sulfur soap to bathe the dog. When bathing, give the dog foam with sulfur soap, let the foam stay on the dog's hair for 10~15 minutes, then rinse the foam with clean water, dry the hair and use it Comb the dead fleas with a fine-toothed comb.
