If you see one flea on your dog, than there is a good chance that there are several more that will soon follow. Adult fleas will start producing eggs within 24-48 of landing onto your pet. With the ability to produce between 40 -50 eggs per day, flea can rapidly get out of control. It is critical to protect your animals from fleas because they can potentially cause other health concerns like skin irritation, allergies, and tapeworms. Fleas also can transfer many diseases like Lyme and even have potential for epidemics like the bubonic plague. Rather small and unnoticeable, these creatures carry a rather large scare for our furry friends and humanity. Ticks are just as bad, if not worse. Ticks will actually bury theirselves into the skin. Most people do not remove the entire body and will continue to get ill and possible infections. Granted most dogs just get skin irritation, however it could very easily transition to something bigger and more costly.
