Dog with Fleas

Hello,

My dog has fleas. Luckily, they seem contained to him and not all over the house. I am quarantining him to kitchen and bathed him today and will daily, and multiple combs w flea comb per day. Also will set up a flea trap. Anything else?
Do they go to a particular area of the body like ears and underarms? My dog seems a little under the weather so perhaps he was vulnerable and that's why he got fleas? Also, I was having trouble finding the "Fleas Be Gone" ebook on the site. I looked under Resources and Library tab, but didn't see it. Can you direct me? Thank you.

Hey Jen!

I'm sorry to hear about your pup's fleas.:confused:🐞

Yes, lots of ideas in a bunch of recent posts here on the forum (use the search field upper right of this page). One of the tips is to read Dr. Christina's book (@aruna can you guide Jen to it?).

Exactly! Wherever it's warm and moist. They also seem to like to hangout around the tail base.

Thanks! Yes - tail base is irritated. Thanks for responding. I read all the other flea posts.
