There is no feeling that can be compared to the one where you are greeted by your pet dog or cat once you get back home at the end of a day. There is a lot of love here and your pets do not expect anything from you but to be loved in return. These animals that stay with you can give you a very rewarding feeling whenever you are around them. However, as pet owners, you would need to be responsible and keep your furry friends clean, healthy, and in the best spirits. Your pets need to be clean and well maintained and this is where flea dips become important. 

There are different kinds of dips that are being used today to repel or kill fleas, ticks, lies, and gnats. There are many water based dips that can be used on dogs, cats, puppies, and even kittens that are around 12 weeks in age or older.  The best dips are usually pleasant smelling; this means that as pet owners, you would not be repelled when you are mixing the dips with the designated quantity of warm water and applying the same on your cats or dogs. 

When you are applying or spraying in the flea dips, you would need to make sure that all areas of the skin are covered. You can then allow your dogs or cats to dip dry. After you have handled the dips, you would need to wash thoroughly with soap and water. Do not use the dips on kittens and puppies that are less than 6 weeks of age. In such instances, you can talk to your veterinarian to know about alternative ways to treat the fleas and ticks. 

There are different types of flea and tick control products available in the market today which can be used for the effective treatment of nonspecific dermatological conditions in your pet cats and dogs. The best products come with a high level of safety and efficacy. As pet owners, you can consult your vets and use these flea dips after diluting them with water at 5 to 7 day intervals. 

The different types of dips and concentrates available today are really effective as far as treating your pet dogs and cats from ticks and fleas go. Make sure that the animals are not ingesting the dips that are being applied. You can restrict the movement of your pet by restraining them with collars to prevent any accidental ingestion. Make sure that the flea dips are being used topically and do not exceed the dosage mentioned in the packs for best results.
