Yes the small tubes that you apply to a dogs back work but you have to make sure that you only get the one that fits your dogs weight. They have a type of poison in them that is safe only for certain size dogs. If you are not sure weight yourself first without your dog the weight yourself with it and subtract to find it's weight. It is safe to use if you are careful but if you are not you can kill an animal. If you have a puppy make sure you read the label before you purchase anything. Some soaps and medicines can not be used on puppies so read before you buy. Most flea shampoo's are dangerous for puppies. Good luck and please love your dog.

No, you need to use a treatment supplied by a vet - and please understand if you sea a flea on an animal that is only a female feeding, the majority of the flea population is actually in the animals beading. Therefore it is no use just treating the animal you have to treat you house and the animals beading too.....a vacuum cleaner is the best defence against fleas - hoover and clean daily and wash/replace the animals beading regularly.

Where does allergics come from I don't understand because my friend got allergic from my friend's 5 dachshunds but she is not allergic to my dachshund dog Please answer me soon.?
This is strange, but it might not be the dogs themselves. Is she allergic to any other dogs besides those five? It could be what shampoo/ conditioner they are washed in. Or the flea/tick dip used on them, and if none is used maybe they have on flea/tick collars. There is something they have that your dog doesn't. It could even be the carpet freshener used in their beding. I think this calls for some investigative work to find out what she is really reacting to. I don't think it is the dogs, but you can run a test for that, unless she has terrible, and violent reactions, then don't!
