That doesn't work here in the deep south, Bob, and when I asked my vet about
it, she told me she never heard of it.  The only conclusions I can draw from
this is that what works for you doesn't work for me because of our living
areas and down here whatever fleas are in the yard where the dogs are, are
killed off by the freezing temperatures we have been experiencing.  The
Capstar tablets I give them will kill whatever fleas are on their bodies for
up to 48 hours and the tablets are inexpensive and begin working inside of 30
minutes.
