There are better ways of preventing fleas. Good baths help, especially with flea repellant soaps. The flea repellant can be natural herbs. Keeping dog beds clean helps.
I am always suspicious of easy chemical treatments. There has to be a down side to something that kills fleas so thoroughly for so long. Some animals can handle it, but there are always going to be some who are poisoned. There are always going to be some children who are poisoned as well. Of course people want easy treatments no matter what the risks.
Why do they take so long to pull these things off the market when they know they are unsafe?
