Do NOT use chemicals on a pregnat bitch. Bath her in Dawn. Dry her thoroughly and apply food grade DE on her (do this outdoors and try not to make a powder cloud) , her bedding and around the baseboards of her room. You can also apply outdoors but if it rains, you must reapply. Barb Hively - PA DNA. It's what makes a white, a German Shepherd -----Original Message----- From: Bill Sinclair <sincagsd@xxxxxxx> To: showgsd-l <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Fri, Sep 7, 2012 9:31 am Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Fleas - Yikes Well this is the 1st time in a very long time that I have had fleas and the worst one is my pregnant cavalier. The other dogs are on a preventative and I do have her some what isolated. It started when Frontline Plus and then Advantix both did not respond to the treatment on her. Didn't think about it much until I realized I wouldn't be using any chemicals on her in her condition. One vet I questioned said I can use Frontline after she gives birth. Another vet said to use Frontline on her now. What should I do. Right now I am using a flea comb and frequent baths.
