About 3 weeks ago a neighbor brought their dog over to play in the yard with my dog. The next day, he called back to say he found fleas on his dog, so I should check mine. I looked through and couldn't find anything. I bought some flea shampoo anyway and bathed him. 3 weeks later and my dog starts itching himself. I check and find he has fleas on him. I quickly bathed him again, and got some Advantage flea control. I also got some flea carpet powder and dusted the entire house. I am so freaked out by these little bugs, I have never dealt with fleas before (this is my 3rd dog I have ever had). It has only been a day since I found them, and I still see a few on his body. I am worried that the medicine isn't working. I am also freaked out that they are on me. It seems like my head itches, but I can't see anything on me. I have washed the dogs bed, toys, and also my sheets. Am I overreacting? Is it too early to be rid of them? I know that their eggs can lay dormint for a long time. =(
