i use asontol soap for my dog... kulay blue ang box niya....
if the fleas are not that worst, regular bathing will do.
once a week is gud enaf.....

but if its really worst, i'v tried this b4 its a solution that
smells like kerosin. i jst dont knw the name of it.
the owner of da  dog wer i bought my dog gave that to me,
the mixture was mixed by their vet and they just gave me some.

it was really effective coz after wiping it to my dog, the fleas
just fell off his hair..... but u must not let ur dog lick hiself
coz the solution can make ur dog dizzy....

i'v got a black lab pala... ;)

i use doggies choice (local product) for my dogs. effective naman siya for me, natutuyo ang mga parasite at kusang nalalaglag.

i don't use asuntol (bayer) for it contains a highly poisonous chemical and these product is once banned from the market years back.

braveheart, are you referring to the mixture that was being sold by vets which is white in color and smells like a mixture of kerosene and napthalene balls? i once used the solution for my dogs and it works, pero delikado.

btw, i have one male shit-zu, one female rotweiller, one female belgian mastif and my everdearest askal.

thank you for this board nga pala.

rite ma'am joane, its a white mixture...
my vet told not to let the dog lick it.
so, after wiping the solution to my dog, i walk my dog
until he'll be dry.... thats wat my vet suggest.

banned pala ang asuntol... haven't known dat....
is it still safe to use ma'am joane? i'v been using asuntol for 2 yrs now. ???

as far as i know, asuntol (bayer) was made for carabaos and cows intentionally. but local company here in PI made some modification on the product and recommends it to dogs. better ask your vet to be sure. just like what your vet said regarding the mixture, meron din nakalagay sa wrapper ng asuntol "POISONING IS A RESULT OF CARELESS HANDLING....."

meron namang nabibiling antidote para sa malalason na asuntol, mahirap lang hanapin.

take care of your pet....

carbamate is one of the products of "doggies choice". maganda yang product na iyan, ntutuyot ang mga fleas and ticks, kahit gaano pa kakapal ang coat ng aso. ang mahalaga, matiyaga tayong magilinis ng kapaligiran nila.

kung meron namang malilipatang lugar, best. for sure nasa mga crack o singit ng pader naninirahan ang mga parasites na iyan. diyan mo gamitin ang "ASUNTOL", sa surroundings nila, pero HINDI sa kanila mismo. try using it a bit concentrated, sabay linis na din ng paligid. wala ka namang alagang askal? madalas, askal ang nagdadala nito, esp galang aso. check mo din ang garden, pwede rin sa halaman yun.

NOPE, use asuntol flea powder instead, read the instruction and follow it carefully.

good luck
