Killing Fleas

Alternatively, squeeze it firmly between the thumb and index finger using your fingernail on its rear end to kill it.

The dog should be treated by means of a powder or an aerosol intended for this purpose.

Be careful when applying these potentially toxic preparations, always read the directions carefully beforehand, especially if you buy brands available through pet shops, because not all are safe for young dogs.

Most puppies can be safely washed with a flea shampoo from the age of 12 weeks onward.

Do not let the puppy get a chill. If possible use a hair drier on its lowest setting, but never on a dog with skin problems.
