Our kittens were eaten up with fleas and I called the vet, he said give them a bath in DAWN dish soap, that it kills fleas dead, but isn't toxic to small animals. Give your puppy a weekly bath. You will see the dead fleas in the bath water, rinse him or her well..it works, trust me.

Unless your puppy is very dirty, don't wash him until he is eight weeks old. And wait for at least ten days after a surgery. Be very careful of the water because dogs can't stand water as warm as humans do.
