Gene, weren't you the one that said the Bayer T&S & Frontline Plus didn't work for you? If you try this and it works, let us know, I'd be interested in seeing how it does compared to those.

Mo Beagler,
I found that the Adams Flea and Tick shampoo works really good at getting rid of them initially and it seemed to keep them off for a while. When I washed the dogs with that stuff they seemed to come off in droves. You can find this stuff at Wal Mart it is a neon blue bottle about pint size. If you have lots of dogs will want to get your self 2 bottles.

I have never found a shampoo work as good as this stuff did. Once I got them dried off then I applied the Frontline plus and didn't seem to have any more problems with the coodies.

Is that horse wipe stuff useable on human skin? When I was younger my parents had a feed store which sold purina products that had a horse fly whipe stuff that worked really good at repelling creepy crawleys, you just put it on a towel and wiped down with it just like you would wipe down a horse.
