Is A More Natural Diet Better For Your Dog?

I have an 8 week old kitten and she has a massive amount of fleas (we live in the country). She had them right from the day we got her! She is too young for any of the flea remedies that I have seen. We are calling the vey on Monday, but what can we do until then?

I just dropped my 2 dogs off at the groomer and while I was in line, I heard another customer say something like she thought her dog had fleas….The groomer then started talking about putting some flea preventitive on the dog.
