yes baking soda is safe, as is talcum powder or baby powder. Both substances are good home remedies for killing fleas on your pet ... the powders will smother the fleas. When applying either powder, apply to the animals head first, which will prevent fleas from running towards the head as the powder is applied elsewhere.

Can baking soda kill fleas on puppies and dogs?
From what I have read and heard you have to use equal parts of baking soda, and iodized salt. This combination is supposed to dehydrate and kill fleas and eggs hatchlings. Hey the way I see it baking soda is cheap, and so is salt compared to most flea products, so why not try it? You also must treat your pets, and again from what I have read and heard Dawn dish liquid is a great cleanser to use to bath pets and kill fleas. Also, I read something about liquid garlic, feeding it to the pets in their daily meals. Fleas appearently don't like the smell and won't get on the pets. Hope this helps!!! Good luck!!!
