Lauren Candlish I’m not to sure on how you can stop/treat this but I hope your dogs are ok. The only thing I can suggest after everything you have already tried is, after a big soapy bath, use a flea comb and then put on a spray. I think that combination could definitely make the situation better. I’m assuming you have more than one dog because you said dogs? If that’s the case I think you should have a separate comb for each one so as not to spread fleas and also bath separately if not already. (Also clean the bath after bathing one and then bath the other) if you are still dealing with the fleas perhaps take them to the vet and make sure it is fleas your dealing with. If you manage to rid one of fleas make sure to keep it away from the other dog/s that have fleas so it doesn’t pick them up again. You may already do this stuff and so sorry because then this advice is useless. I hope you manage to get rid of them safely and that your dogs are ok.
Hope this helps 🙂 sorry if it doesn’t 🙁 -
Jamie Mayhew A situation of severe fleas can be tough to completely eliminate. If you have already tried treating your dogs and house but are still suffering you may need to go to the extreme- my suggestion is time consuming, but has worked for me in the past:
Fleas have a cycle and without destroying every stage of the cycle they will just continue to breed and jump straight back on your dogs.
1. Fleas travel so I would treat your whole house (use a good house flea treatment as some can just slow down the process instead of actually killing the fleas- Johnson’s has always worked really well for me). Leave the spray to work for 12 hours without your dogs in the house, otherwise like i said the cycle will carry on.
2. While your house is being treated bathe your dogs- use flea shampoo, but most importantly do not just shower your dogs, after you have shampooed and washed them, fill the bath/ container up to their neck and let them soak for half an hour to an hour ( fleas are difficult to kill but they will drown after this amount of time). Your dogs may not like a long, soaking bath but if it relieves them of the fleas they will feel much mire comfortable.
3. Once your dogs are out of the bath, fully dried and brushed thoroughly, treat them with flea treatment (again some brands do not work as well as others- frontline is vet recommended, and works very well).
4. Let your dog back into the house after 12 hours.
Good luck

Jamie Mayhew It looks like ring worm, which can be transmitted from dog to human (and other species of animals). The vet could best diagnose the skin condition.

B. Lakonpa It is not recommended to ever put a rabbit in water. If your rabbit is dirty, gently wipe it with a warm damp cloth

Marshmallow The Rabbit Well, it’s not recommended to give rabbits baths as they can get put into shock by it. However, you can put them in a sink, fill it up to roughly 2.5 inches and put your rabbit in. Bathe them. When you’re done with that, instantly put a towel over you rabbit and try to dry it. Hair dryers and fans can work if they’re put in low.
Hi, I Need Some Tips On My Situation With My Bunny So It Would Be…
Hi, I need some tips on my situation with my bunny so it would be great if you wouldn’t mind helping me out. My bunny is an adult medium male Brown HollandLop, I had had him since he was very little. I decided to have him free ranged around my garden both day and night because he would be very aggressive and stressed out if I caged him even though his cage is very big ( 3 meters long, 2 meters tall and 2 meters wide). I have never seen any other predators except stray cats, I wouldn’t worry about the cats that much because my rabbits are great friends with my dog and he would scare away the cats and at night my bunny would choose to go sleep in my garage which is right next to one of my families room so if anything bad happens we would hear it. I don’t know if this is safe but he seems very happy to be free ranged and have this cage open so he can go in for pellets and veggies. Please give me your opinion on what I should do with my situation.

Anonymous your area is completely without birds of prey? that’s surprising. and you can’t count on predators behaving around prey. your dog is also a predator. he may be trained to leave the rabbit alone, but that doesn’t mean you should leave them together unsupervised.
is your rabbit not used to being handled? are you rough when putting him in the cage?

Chawfaar Bowornwattanangkoon My rabbit is totally used to being handled but after I have him run around during the day he would have a really hard time going back in. And I live in Thailand so there are no foxes etc. My dog isn’t really a concern to me because he have been with my rabbit since they are very little but I do supervise my dog while he is outside with the bunny. I rabbit is very bonded to me so if I go outside to would come to me.

B. Lakonpa I let my rabbits run around the yard but only when I can supervise them. Your rabbit might end up wandering too far or a predator could find him, even though he doesn’t want to go in the cage, it’s whats best for his safety. How big is your cage?
My Kitten Gracie Has Been Acting Up. She Has Randomly Started Peeing On The Beds…
My kitten Gracie has been acting up. She has randomly started peeing on the beds in my house. She still used the liter box sometimes but still pees on the beds. This all started after a vacation we went on about a month ago.
