Get rid of your pet’s fleas by using Dawn dish soap and table salt.

Fleas can be a bothersome issue for people with pets, but you don’t have to spend a lot of money on treatments to eliminate them. Here is an easy and affordable way to get rid of fleas using Dawn dish soap and table salt.

Materials Needed:

• Dawn dish soap (original blue formula works best)
• Table salt
• Warm water
• A flea comb
• Towel

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Bath:
   Fill a bathtub or basin with warm water, ensuring it’s a comfortable temperature for your pet.
2. Apply Dawn Dish Soap:
   Gently lather your pet’s coat with Dawn dish soap, making sure to cover all areas, especially around the neck, tail, and underbelly where fleas tend to hide.
3. Let It Sit:
   Allow the soap to sit for about 5-10 minutes to effectively suffocate the fleas.
4. Rinse Thoroughly:
   Rinse your pet completely with warm water to remove all the soap and dead fleas.
5. Apply Table Salt:
   Sprinkle table salt over carpets, pet bedding, and other areas where fleas might be present. Let it sit for a few hours or overnight, then vacuum thoroughly to remove flea eggs and larvae.
6. Comb and Dry:
   Use a flea comb to remove any remaining fleas from your pet’s fur. Towel dry or blow-dry as needed.

Tips:

• Repeat this process every few days until the flea infestation is fully under control.
• Wash pet bedding and vacuum floors regularly to prevent reinfestation.
