How to completely eliminate fleas on cats

Eliminating fleas on cats requires the use of relevant external parasite control drugs, such as those containing non-proprietary ingredients like permethrin and selenium sulfide. At the same time, it is necessary to develop the habit of regular deworming. In addition, since fleas will lay eggs in the environment, it is essential to clean and insecticide the environment to prevent flea eggs from hatching into adults and re-infecting the cat.

To completely eliminate fleas on cats, generally speaking, it is necessary to choose appropriate deworming methods according to the severity of the cat's flea infection. The specific methods are as follows:

If there are few fleas on the cat, or only a few fleas are found here and there, it is recommended to use external drop drugs containing non-proprietary or selenium sulfide components. The drug can be directly dropped on the cat's neck, head, and other areas, and the hair should be parted to allow the drug to directly contact the cat's skin. If there are many fleas on the cat, or if a large amount of flea feces can be found on the cat, it is recommended to use external spray drugs containing non-proprietary components. The drug can be sprayed on the cat's head, neck, armpits, groin, and back areas. However, according to the cat's weight, reasonably use the above drugs to avoid overdose. In addition, to further enhance the drug's efficacy, you can wrap the pet urine pad around the cat's body for 3 to 5 minutes to increase the drug's flea-killing effect.

No matter what type of pest control method is used, subsequent nursing work must be done, such as developing a habit of regular deworming and environmental insecticide treatment. Under normal circumstances, young cats are recommended to undergo external deworming every 1 to 2 months, and adult cats can undergo external deworming every 2 to 3 months. At the same time, it is necessary to clean the areas where the cat often activities and regularly insecticide.
