Why not just use flea and tick puppy shampoo?

teatree will make your puppy smell good, have shiney hair,, and still have fleas.
Get either frontline, OR.. use the dandruff shampoo..

use head and shoulders – it kills fleas – doesnt dry their skin out – and actually smells clean if you rinse the animal thoroughly -

Teatree oil can be just as toxic as any ‘chemical’.
Instead, you can safely use Dawn dish detergent, just don’t go above the shoulders with it. It’s safe, and will kill the fleas.

Dawn dish soap works better than anything else that I have tried to rid dogs and cats of fleas. You can buy the pretty scented kind and he will smell way better than head and shoulders, and be careful not to get soap in his eyes.

At 8 weeks you can use Frontline Plus or Advantage for fleas. They are safe and the most effective products out there. You don’t want the puppy to be bitten, develop allergies from flea bites or get tapeworms, so take it seriously.

Tea tree shampoo is ok on dogs (NOT on cats, it’s toxic to them) but I don’t think it will get rid of fleas. Dawn dish soap will for sure. So will Head and Shoulders. Just make sure to really rinse the dog off several times to get rid of all the soap.

NO teatree shampoo will only irritate your puppies skin and won’t get rid of any fleas. Go to your vet. They can give your pup a pill that will kill the fleas on it Then you need to clean the dogs bed, your place your car or anywhere else the doggie has been. Otherwise you will still have fleas. Good luck
