A flea problem on your pet means a flea problem in your home. Understanding the flea life cycle and methods for its control can be a daunting task. We will gladly assist you in this process. We can provide you with safe, effective flea prevention and if necessary, flea treatment.

Fleas can cause problems for pets ranging from mild skin issues to life-threatening (such as severe anemia in our juvenile patients). Not only can these parasites cause severe itching, irritation, and allergies, but they can also transmit tapeworms and other diseases. Fleas can infest dogs, cats, ferrets, mice, and rats. And fleas don’t just stay on pets; they can bite people, too.

See the flea article in the Pet Health Library of our site for more information online. For your specific family’s needs, call us to find out how to eliminate and control fleas or to start your pet on a preventive today.
