I’ll try to keep it short but I can go on…
We had a new puppy and the first day we had her we could tell she was itching loads but didn’t think too much of it as she was up to date with flea treatment
Day 2: I combed her with a flea comb and found a flea 😱 I spent the rest of the day obsessively googling and fretting that my house was now going to become flea ridden
Day 3: hot washed all bedding, bathed the puppy (just tea tree pet shampoo) sprayed the whole house with frontline spray for homes. Had a panic attack and mini breakdown
Day 4: questioned my life decisions, feelings of regret followed by guilt.
Called the vet who prescribed a flea treatment, this one lasts for 12 weeks.
Washing, washing, washing, more fretful stressing and googling.
Please can someone reassure me that everything should be ok. Believe me I’ve read some horror stories.
Surely pets can get fleas and peoples houses don’t turn into flea ridden pits.
If you can’t tell, I’m an anxious person, I go from 0-1000 very quickly. Please tell me this is common and everything I’ve done should nip it in the bud.
