Hi everyone, I have a question:
Poppy has been scratching like CRAZY all night and this morning I searched her all over, to find tiny, brown, moving specks in her fur.EEEWWW!
I took her to our vet and he washed her thoroughly in a white powder dissolved in water, but he said it would only kill the things on her and not the eggs. He said that she is too young yet to use a stronger medicine on her and that I will have to wait (she is 10 weeks old) But the poor baby is still scratching away...is it really not ok to use a flea repellent on a baby? I cant stand to see her suffering like this, it is driving us both mad!
We live in Beijing in China as we work for the foreign office, so my communication with the vet is not 100% as i dont speak Chinese!
Any help would be appreciated!
If it is allowed to use something like Frontline on a 10 week old puppy, I will ask my Mom to send me some!
Thanks!
