Best Flea Treatment For Dogs

I'm mortified my 13 year old dog has never had fleas but definitely does now 😩. I bathed her on finding them which killed a lot and got Advocate from the vet on Monday. II've just had a look through her fur now and have found 3 live ones. I thought Advocate was supposed to kill them all and and anything that lands on her??!!
I'm hoovering twice a day and have been steaming my floors. I have a house rabbit who also has a few which I've treat too. Is there a better product on the market ?

You need to treat the house with Indorex. Fleas live in the environment, they love crevices like under skirting boards, between floorboards and in soft furnishing. So they will just hang out there and jump on your dog/rabbit when they are close enough.

The advocate will deal with them, but there will still be more in the environment, so you need to treat all your animals and the house. I usually try to avoid harsh chemicals, but I’ve never found anything that works as well on fleas as Indorex and the effects last for months as well.

^ This. Indorex for the house, Advocate for the pets.
