Warmer weather is here, and it's time to consider summer travel. For many pet owners, this means taking their furry friends along. But before hitting the road, ensuring your pet is flea-free is essential. Fleas are not just a nuisance but can carry diseases, affecting both pets and humans.
Start Early: Don't wait until the last minute to tackle flea prevention. Start at the beginning of the season so you have time to establish a regular flea treatment plan. Remember, early prevention is critical to a comfortable journey with your pet.
Consult Your Veterinarian: Different flea treatments work best for different pets. Talk to your vet to find the most suitable option. They can also guide you on proper usage.
Regular Checks & Awareness: Even with a flea treatment plan, regularly check your pet for fleas using a comb or looking for flea dirt (tiny black feces). Be aware of signs of infestation like excessive scratching, hair loss, and skin irritation.
