It’s the height of flea season. During the transition from Summer to Fall, fleas become more prevalent. They are trying to get indoors to escape the cold months ahead. I see the most flea infestation from August- November. Even if your dog stays inside they can hitch a ride on you or your family and get inside. Once they are indoors it can be a challenge to eradicate them.
Last year was the worst season I have seen in my 17 years of being in the industry. Keep an eye on your pets.
Signs your pet may have fleas.
If you notice a lot of black flakes on your dog, this is most likely flea poop.
Itchy and biting. Especially on the hind end, belly, groin and armpit areas.
Red spots that may look like a “rash”. These could be flea bites that caused an allergic response.
Please note I do not flea dip and cannot take dogs that have fleas. Although I clean thoroughly, this can potentially put other dogs at risk of getting fleas.
If your dog is found to have fleas there will be a minimum of an additional $50.00 cleaning fee. Your dog may be returned to you unfinished depending on the severity of the infestation.
If you find your pet does have fleas consult your vet on the proper treatment and preventative.
