Hi i noticed you say you have no money to purchase the medication you need for your pet,well the only advise i can give is use a flea/nit comb and try to remove as many fleas as poss and maybe try to borrow some money to buy some needed medication as you will become infested if you don't get on top of it soon.
I to have yorkies and its a nightmare especially if they are long haired like mine.
When you purchase the medication get it from your vets as i find most pet shop remedies do not work,you will end up paying out twice if you go on this route.
Hope this helps you and good luck with sorting it.

You need to vacuum really well and wash the dog. Then go get some BORAX laundry detergent. Sprinkle it all over the floors and leave it for about a week. It will dry up any eggs or fleas left in the carpet. Vacuum after the week time period. You should get some frontline for the dog because any flea that bites him will die. Fleas can't live long with out a host so to poison them using the frontline on the dog is the best way. Good luck.

Get some flea control from your local pet store or vet. You don't want to have your dogs miserable. It is a good thing you found before your dogs were infested!

Go to the store and buy some Capstar. Vets carry it. Then you will need to clean their beds and the places where they like to lay. Get some Frontine Plus or something similar and that should take care your problem! Good luck!

Go to a pet store or vet and try Biospot. Advantage. or Frontline. Don't use Hartz. It doesn't work and can cause health problems for the dogs.

Flea bath. Don't use flea collars. They can cuse alot of problems, or even death.
Can you get Advantage? They sell it at Petco, and other pet stores.

we love Frontline Plus... we live on a farm with a huge colony of feral cats... we frontline our dogs monthly and never have fleas

look in the laundry room, if you have any Downy fabric softener, wet your dog wash them using Downy, rinse well, it will kill every flea it contacts.
good luck
