Anyone else having a flea problem?
This year has been very wet and hot. The fleas are eating us alive. Every time we walk outside they come in on our clothes, and on the dogs. The dogs are up to date with their flea medication, but that doesn't keep the fleas from hitching a ride into the house. Spraying our clothes with Off and the dogs with a citronella based fly repellant is getting really monotonous, time consuming and expensive.
I know all the ways to clear the house of fleas..... what we need is a safe way to control the fleas in the yard without harm to the chickens, dogs, and limited impact on the environment. I know this is a lot to ask from one product. It's about 4 acres so it's got to be economical.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
