My 9 month old puppy has fleas. I was wondering what is the best product to use to get rid of the fleas??? He still plays and is his usual self with some itching and growling at places he cant itch. I also have a cat and have checked him but found nothing on the cat. Anyone help me please. Thank you all

Go to the vet and get some Advantage or Frontline.
I haven't even seen a flea in almost ten years with Advantage.

I agree to ONLY go to the vet for treatment. Do not buy over the counter flea medication.

Fleas will get to your cat if you wait too long to rid the ones on the puppy. The vet will give you the right treatment.

I use BioSpot (from Foster/Smith). We like it - works well. Others use Advantage or Frontline. You might not have found any on the cat...yet, but if the dog has them, the cat will too. And they are in your house. So you have to treat the pets AND the house to clear all fleas out.
