Message-ID: <1291@mtgzz.UUCP> Date: Mon, 21-Oct-85 20:46:57 EDT Article-I.D.: mtgzz.1291 Posted: Mon Oct 21 20:46:57 1985 Date-Received: Tue, 22-Oct-85 06:19:06 EDT Organization: AT&T Information Systems Labs, Holmdel NJ Lines: 17 Our friends own a Bedlington Terrier. She's basically an inside dog, but she does go out to play for about an hour a day. And she picks up fleas. Lots of the little buggers. They've tried flea baths, flea powder and flea collars. So far, no luck. As my friend says "It seems that the little scumbags have no respect for the products we're using." Is there a solution? Had anyone found a way to keep fleas from sucking our doggies dry? And what's worse, I've got flea bites from the fleas that she left in my apartment after dog-sitting her for a week! Talk about itch. Please respond by mail if possible (I know sometimes that's not that easy with the weird mail paths). I'll summarize to the net concerning this terrible canine (and feline and sapian!) crisis. Sharon Badian ihnp4!mtgzz!seb
