Has any one used SKOOSH, or know any other good flea sprays?

[vicky2498]

Has anyone used SKOOSH to treat fleas in there home if so can you tell me how effective you think it is? If not does any one know of any other really good sprays thay kill the flea and its eggs. Also baring in mind that I have 1 year old so it has to be safe to use around children.

I have heard of Skoosh, but never used it, so cant comment. I used Acclaim once which I got from the vet. But you can buy it cheaper at the online veterinary sites.

...in their home...

[jules77]

Yes Lucy Thomas, I know in their home, which is what Acclaim is for (see attached link, underneath 'skoosh')

What on Earth are you talking about?

[woofgang]

I have used RIP from the vet twice now...the first time was because I brought home fleas from another house and I don't mean one or two...my uniform was black with them. :-0 One treatment did the trick. You spray the house and vacate for an hour as I recall.
We routinely treat our dogs with frontline so we didn't get reinfested

I think Lucy is on about the spelling of their, Vicky said there home. Not that it matters really, we all understood what she meant!

[lankeela]

Amazed Lucy Thomas did not pick up on the mis-spelling of baring. Sorry Vicky, wouldn't have pointed it out had it not been for the pedantic Ms Thomas missing it!

You can get 'flea bombs' that you set off in a closed room and leave for a while, ask at your pet shop.

Yep I realised later what she was talking about, as I didnt think anyone could be so petty........I thought Ms T thought I had misread the post and Vicky wanted a flea treatment for animals. Never mind.

[Lucy Thomas]

I didn't miss it. I gave her the benefit of the doubt that it was a typo.

[vicky2498]

OMG!!!!!!! i asked a question about my pet and got a spelling lesson instead. i never been able to spell lol all i need is people picking out all the mistakes thanks!

[jules77]
