Anyone who has tried Neem oil or other essential oils for fleas on dogs? Please help. Does it kill fleas or simply reject them. I heard that Neem oil is fleas lay their eggs.
I used a spray of neem oil and wash made by Naturals Ark for years on my dogs and never had fleas. Of course there other essential oils in both, but they work and are safe. But they are a repellent,
No, it will not make them stop laying eggs. It might postpone, but not as well as a flea prevention as Frontline will.
If you do want to try one home remedy Make sure you always dilute essential oils before applying them on skin. At full power, they can be very toxic to dogs.
