add your comment »I think in this context I can help you and share my experience. Mix two cups fresh rosemary or peppermint,mix both flea repellents in five quarts of warm water. Steep the solution for 30 minutes. After it cools, dip your pet in the mixture.

It is always interesting to read about herbal and homeopathic therapies for animals. I hope that more research will be done for animals than on them.

My dogs and cat have their own Bachs flower remedies, one of my tortoises has a thyroid deficiency and is treated by a homoeopathic/herbalist vet/Dr. My vets are a firm supporters of complimentary therapies and even though you have to sneak your complimentary therapies into NHS hospitals, I was recently in a Munich hospital and not only did they support my using my own complimentary medicines but used then as well!
