So your dog has fleas. Here’s how to get rid of fleas on dogs quickly without a prescription.
Being a pet owner is expensive. And the more pets you have, the more expensive things get. Right now we three dogs – two English Bulldogs and a chihuahua.
Bulldogs are high maintenance and known for having health issues. Some based on their breed and build
We can’t afford going to the vet for every little thing. So we try to find ways to do things at home and save on our vet bills.
We learned that in Texas, the bugs don’t die in winter. You have to give tick and flea remedies year round.
How long do fleas live?
The lifespan of a flea is approximately 100 days without a blood meal. This means that even in cold climates, fleas and ticks can lay dormant for several months without hatching.
The good news is PetArmor Plus helps break the flea life cycle by killing flea eggs and flea larvae for up to 12 weeks. It also kills ticks that may spread Lyme disease and chewing lice.

When I found out my dog has fleas, it was the worst. Especially when my dog sleeps with me.
But don’t worry if your dog does get fleas or ticks. It’s not a pet parent fail.
Guess what? Getting rid of fleas doesn’t require a prescription to get vet-quality flea and tick medication. And it doesn’t have to cost a fortune.
Part of the reason I took the winter off from giving my dogs flea and tick medication was the price. Now I don’t have to worry about that.
The best way to get rid of fleas on dogs is with the PetArmor Plus flea treatment. And I’m super excited I can now grab it at PetSmart. This will make taking care of my bulldogs so much easier because I can get it while I’m buying my other pet supplies.
