Can anyone tell me is it harmful to us when we wash our pets in flea shampoo or put flea products on our pets?

Read the instructions on the bottle of flea shampoo. Usually there will be warnings, or age/size guidelines. It can be dangerous to wash young kittens in flea shampoo.





Also, when using a spray product like frontline, usually there is an age recomendation, plus the product specifies the number of squirts per pound.





If you are not sure, there are safe alternatives, such as a flea comb. I defleaed my kittens using a flea comb and a plain water bath to drown the fleas as I was removing them. Putting animals in a bath usually forces the fleas to higher ground, and they will usaully move to the head or face. I would not recommend a flea comb for large animals, because it is time consuming.Can anyone tell me is it harmful to us when we wash our pets in flea shampoo or put flea products on our pets?
it can be harmful because it is a toxin developed to kill fleas but be safe for animals. it doesnt necessarily say its ok for humans.





it is reccommended to use gloves when washing your dog in any insecticide, and to wash your hands if some ';flea spot-on'; gets on our skin. It is advised that you do not touch the ';spot-on'; on your dog until it has been absorbed.]





while i'm sure the small amounts of the does wouldnt kill us, of course you would want to keep it away from children and the like. i think it would be a good idea for you to read the labels on flea products you are planning on using, or contact the company if you arent satisfied with the info the label provides.





another alternative is to get your local dog washer to use the flea shampoo instead. ';spot-ons'; are most effective if applied 24hrs after your dog (otherwise the damp fur can decrease the effectiveness)

I think you should use as little as possible. There are organic products out there, Aubrey organics has sprays. Eucalyptus oil in a bath helps, but doesn't get them all and then the tub needs to be cleaned good so its not slippery. On the other hand, fleas are a big problem. I think brewer yeast helps, I forget how you use it, so just do a search on it.





I know for human lice, newer products use those silicone products that are in hair conditioner. The lice cant stick, it makes them slide off. Maybe these conditioners could help with fleas.
well for evry single living thing on the world ask urself would i like that do u think U would like to have flea pruduvts on u i dont tihnk so ... tip tip fleas and tics absolutly hate ucalipise trees so if u live near those ur pet is garenteed no ticks or fleas .
I think its ok to use. If it was harmful to use any flea control product then they probly would not sell. Good luck.
all these products are supposed to be tested to be safe before they are put out on the market
its okay to use provided u wash your hands well after its use
