Misty Bateman answered 9/1/2012 I Need A Home Remedy For Getting Fleas Off My Dog.I Can Not Afford Advantage Right Now PLEASE Is There Something In My House I Can Use? I have found that using regular Head & Shoulders shampoo works great on killing fleas, also the Head & Shoulders with conditioner in it leaves the dogs fur super soft and shiny. Not a long term fix but does the trick to give your pet some relief.
