May GARAPATA aso ko!!!

[XTO]

^^^ used oil ba ika mo? alam ko epektib yan sa bahay ng anay pero pwede rin sa doggie siguro kaya lang masyado messy ang paglinis after lalo't hindi askals.

another natural method is yung dahon ng kakawate, diktik then rub it to dog's skin for 1 hour, laglag ang mga pesteng garapata. sa probinsya ito ang gawa pero kung andyan pa rin ang host madaling makakabalik. dapat yung host ang unahin

[Lucius]

wala ata sumuport sa suggestion ko? hhhhmmmmm.....

Hahaha medyo "dirty" work. Pwede siguro pag may boy or helper dun na lang ipagawa

[ab_initio]

sir sa mga gasoline station ung mga use oil nila paniguraduhan tangal ang garapata ng aso mo

wala ata sumuport sa suggestion ko? hhhhmmmmm.....

Sir agz, nabasa ko siya...kaya lang medyo messy..wawa naman si asogar. tapos, katawatawa ang hitsura niya. baka sabay ng pagkawala ng garapata niya sabay din magbago name ni dog.wehehehe

:rofl:

quack doc in the house? or alternative vet med in the house?

kidding aside, pwed cguro injection so the flea could take in the med when it sucks the blood...and kakawate sa pagligo.

btw, what's kakawate in English? bisaya here, Sir.

My dog has the same problem. Just this afternoon the vet came over to visit. Tomorrow he'll give my dog an anti flea spray. I think the name is frontline.

ok yang frontline, though what am I using is yung spot-on. for 3 months safe na sa flea yung dog mo for sure tapos maintenance na lang.

Where did you buy frontline? I've been looking for it everywhere. Mas mahal kasi pag sa vet binili.

[jatcos]

Pa-vet monalang para sigurado.they will inject anti flea/scabies and add monarin de-worm and anti leptospirosis. wipe out yan sigurado..then maintenance nalang ng spray as topical. Wagmo pabayaan lumaki garapata, once na naging butete sigurado manganganak na yun ng libolibo. Used oil -hndi ba toxic yun esp synthetic?
