You can give a puppy or dog of any age a bath. Just make sure the water is lukewarm and you use a gentle shampoo. Also steer clear of any topical flea treatment, as there have been many deaths associated with such. Over the counter flea collars don't work, as well as, flea powders. Adams flea spray does work, and can now be bought at places like Walmart. Alternative flea treatments which are safe but effective include, boilng lemons in a double boiler, peels and all, and then transferring the liquid to a spray bottle.
Apply to your dog and massage thoroughly into the skin. This should last for a month, but would need to be reapplied if the dog were given another bath.. Another alternative flea treatment would be to crush up a clove of garlic, I give this to my dogs daily, and also give brewer's yeast, which you can find in pill form at places like Applecrate. It is about $5 a bottle for 200 pills. Try giving your small dog a garlic clove every other day. Oh, by the way, once you've bathed your puppy, blow dry with a hair dryer. This is invaluable in the winter, so get her/him used to the sound and feel of it as soon as possible. Certainly hope this helps you out. Good luck!

How many times a month should a pit bull puppy be shower?
if its under 6 weeks its not that good to bathe it but it wont hurt it and if it is under 6 weeks you should only bathe it when necessary. If its 8 weeks or older you should bathe it every 2 to 4 unless necessary to do before that. If you bathe a dog to much you can get rid of there natural 'scent' (the scent helps the dogs to identify each other) I bathe my dogs every 10 days and that keeps them smelling good. If the dog is indoors all day and is only outside for like an hour the whole week you don't need to bathe it so often. My dogs are outside more than 6 hours a day (if the weather is good) so therefore i need to wash them more often.
