Tea Tree Oil for Fleas

To help your dog this summer, put 10 drops of tea tree oil into a bottle of baby shampoo before bathing, then mix. Bathe your dog using some of the soap, fleas and ticks hate the smell. It helped our dog who was allergic and had hot spots. We did some searching online about Tea Tree Oil and it's a good alternative to dandruff shampoo for humans as well. Everyone should be well informed on any ideas they try.

I got some tea tree oil at the health food store, it was expensive, but worked great. I also got some at Wally World (Wal-Mart) at a more reasonable price but it wasn't as strong.

RE: Tea Tree Oil for Fleas

"That is highly unlikely, tea tree oil almost always comes from Australia, and the Australian government has strict quality standards for it."

No, the reason it was cheaper was that it was probably a 20% solution in a carrier solution. The "cut" versions are less strength, cheaper, and much more quantity than 100% pure. Feel free to remove that foot from you mouth. :)

You can get tea tree oil at Wal-mart, but its not the good stuff from Aussie!
