Fleas can be a pesky problem for pet owners, but you don’t necessarily need expensive treatments to get rid of them. Here’s a simple and cost-effective DIY flea treatment using Dawn dish soap and table salt:
Ingredients:
- Dawn dish soap (blue variety)
- Table salt
Instructions:
1. Prepare a Bath: Fill a bathtub or basin with warm water. Make sure the water level is enough to comfortably submerge your pet.
2. Wet Your Pet: Place your pet in the water and thoroughly wet their fur. This helps create a barrier that prevents fleas from escaping to the head area.
3. Apply Dawn Dish Soap: Take a small amount of Dawn dish soap (blue kind) and lather it in your hands. Gently massage the lather onto your pet’s fur, ensuring it reaches all areas, including underbelly and legs. The soap suffocates and immobilizes the fleas.
4. Let It Sit: Let the soap sit on your pet’s fur for a few minutes. This gives the soap time to work on the fleas.
