      Keep your pet clean with an herbal pet shampoo that contains eucalyptus oil.

    • 2

      Comb and brush your pet daily with a flea comb to remove any fleas that may linger. Brush your pet to remove any flea debris.

    • 3

      Keep your pet indoors as much as possible, especially during the height of flea season.

    • 4

      Purchase an herbal flea collar for your pet. Never use flea collars on young kittens or puppies. Follow the instructions carefully.

    • 5

      Vacuum daily, including furniture, the car or anywhere else your pet spends time.

    • 6

      Wash your pet's bedding in hot water at least once a week. Wash your own bedding as well if your pet gets comfortable on your bed.

    • 7

      Sprinkle salt on your carpets, leave it overnight, then vacuum thoroughly.

      Add garlic and brewer's yeast to your pet's diet; fleas hate the taste and won't find your pet as appetizing.
