🚨 Let’s Talk Fleas 🚨
We’ve noticed an increase in flea cases coming through the salon over the past week, so we wanted to give everyone a heads up!
Fleas seem to be a bit more active at the moment, and it’s important to stay vigilant to keep your pups (and your homes!) protected. Regular flea prevention is key, even as the seasons start to change.
Keep an eye out for signs like excessive scratching, biting at the skin, or small black specks in the coat. If you’re unsure, we’re always happy to check prior to your appointment (Please visit us a few days before, so that we can get on top of them before your visit) 😊
⚠️ Important: If your dog has fleas, please take care of this before your visit.
Fleas in the salon can have a big impact on our business, as it requires a full clean-down, flea treatment of the space, and hot washing of all towels and bedding.
Because of this, any dogs found with fleas during their appointment will incur an additional fee. This covers a full flea shampoo treatment, as well as full flea bomb and the extra cleaning measures required to keep all of our clients safe.
🏡 At Home Care Tip:
When treating your dog for fleas, it’s just as important to treat their environment too. We recommend giving your home a thorough vacuum, Hot washing all pet bedding, and using a flea bomb (can be purchased from the supermarket or bunnings) to help eliminate any fleas still in the environment.
We appreciate your understanding and help in keeping the salon a clean, safe space for everyone 🐾✨
