Fleas. They make pets' lives miserable, and humans begin to itch just at the thought of them. Vets are often asked what pill, drop, dip, collar, or shampoo works the best to get rid of these persistent parasites. The answer is that there is no single method or insecticide that will completely eradicate (or at least control) a flea problem.

Fleas thrive in warm, moist environments. The main food for fleas is blood from host animals. Host animals are mainly cats, dogs, humans and birds. Flea saliva, like other biting skin parasites, contains an ingredient that softens, or "digests" the host's skin for easier penetration and feeding. The saliva of fleas is irritating and allergenic -- the cause of all the itching and scratching.

The flea life cycle is fairly complex, and understanding the various stages will make it easier to get rid of them. There are four main stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The total flea life cycle can range from a couple weeks to several months, depending on environmental conditions.

ADULT: The adult flea is very flat side to side. The adult female flea can lay up to 50 eggs per day. That is 500-600 eggs over several months!

EGG: The eggs are not sticky and they usually fall off of the animal into the carpet, bedding, floorboards, and soil. When the flea egg hatches varies -- anywhere from two days to a few weeks.

LARVA: The larval stage actually has three developmental stages within this stage. Larvae are about 1/4" long and the stages lasts about 5 to 18 days then the larva spins a silken cocoon and pupates.

PUPA: The pupa is the last stage before adult. The adult flea can emerge from the cocoon as early as 3 to 5 days, or it can stay in the cocoon for a year or more, waiting for the right time to emerge.

The entire life cycle is quite variable, as evidenced by the variability in each life stage progression. As mentioned above, the cycle can be as short as two weeks or as long as two years. That is why it is so important to remain vigilant, even when a flea problem is thought to be under control!

One thing many people don't realize is that fleas in particular are a multi-point problem. It isn't as simple as killing the parasites on the pet and getting rid of the problem. Fleas actually spend just a small portion of their time on the pet -- they live in carpets and the environment and hop on your pet for a meal. Environmental control is just as (or more) important as flea control on your pet!

We got a flea problem…Now what do we do?

*Regular grooming and checking for parasites is essential to stay on top of problems with parasites. Giving your dog a bath in flea & Tick shampoo is a great first step.

*Flea and Tick collars worn around the pet’s neck is a great preventative measure along with a flea control treatment such as frontline plus flea medication.

*Bedding: Cedar filled bedding is a natural flea deterrent.

*Flea traps: Used inside the home to attract fleas and trap them inside.

*Foggers: They are used to kill any pests inside the home. Make sure you fog your home while you and your pets are away.

*Lawn Spray: Kills any fleas and ticks in your yard and is none toxic for your pets.

This is all just basic steps that can be taken to prevent flea and tick infestation into your home and on your pets. Using one of these methods will help control the flea problem but to completely eliminate the fleas a more vigorous approach is needed. Once your flea problem is under control the need to exterminate will be less of a hassle.

If you are like me and look forward to taking your dog on outings. No matter how much you love your dog, no one wants to have dog hair and mud all over the backseat of the car. The one thing I do not look forward to is the muddy paw prints on the back seat or mounds of sand left over from a day at the beach. This dog car hammock will eliminate all that for you. It offers a universal fit and is also constructed from waterproof material. This dog car hammock is made of anti-microbial fabric that repels dirt and moisture. The features include a utility bag for your dog’s leash, toys and water. The dog car hammock comes in many different colors and sizes. It totally covers the rear seat and is very attractive. It is very easy to put it, remove when not in use and to clean.

Here are a few tip when traveling with your pet:

* Take your pet on frequent, short trips to get them use to riding in your vehicle.

* Avoid feeding your pet several hours before traveling.

* Cover the upholstery and carpet of your car with newspapers or a car pet cover.

* Use window shades if the sun is too bright for your dog’s comfort.

* Be sure to regulate the temperature in your car.

* Always take a water bowl and plenty of clean water for your dog.

* Try and stop every few hours when traveling long distances to allow your dog time to stretch, burn off energy and to use the bathroom.

Using a dog car hammock will keep your trips safer and make your pet a lot more comfortable during the trip.

Most pet owners are always spending money on a new mesh dog gate every few months. The reason for this is the mesh pressure dog gate that they buy will get destroyed by their sneaky little pet. The mesh gates usually get chewed through in no time or the animal finds a way to squeeze through the openings. And as always these gates are poorly made. After researching many different gates for both my toddler and dog I decided to try this new gate by North States that is getting rave reviews.

This gate is like the old –style wooden gates with a notched bar, a metal bracket and a wooden arm that comes down to lock the gate in place. Once it’s locked down this gate is VERY secure. Instead of the plastic mesh it is clear plastic with only a vertical bar running through the middle. This gate is defiantly designed to prevent kids or pets from climbing over it.

Here is the description gave for this gate:

• Made in the USA of highly durable materials
• Pressure mounted and can easily be installed even without the use of any hardware
• Fits openings 26" thru 42" wide and is 32" high
• Ideal for bottom of the stairs or between rooms

Overall this gate is one of the most solid gates I have ever tried. It is not wobbly like a lot of the other gates that I have seen. The height is a great plus as well. The extra height makes all the difference if you have a high jumper. This pressure dog gate is well worth the money and it’s very inexpensive as well. A lot of people have used these for their small pets, such as ferrets or rabbits and have had great results. I love this gate and am so glad I tried this before I gave up.
