My vets sell prat-tic that killed them straight away i was gutted when kaiser got them last year just make sure u spray your home too as the eggs can live in there bed and carpets even ur bed if they sleep on it so make sure u wash them. Try to avoid supermarket flea stuff it doesnt work

Soon as I got Blue first thing I did was get some frontline.
I tried loads of brands with my cats and the one that impressed me was frontline so I got the same for my staffy.
I got mine off internet, allot cheaper than buying it from the vets.

I got mine off the vet because they had a 'buy 2 get 2 free' offer on. Next time, though, I'll get it online.

I would also suggest flea bombs for your house as the eggs can get into the carpets etc. None of my staffies have ever had fleas, nor has my borjack Mia but i still use frontline to be on the safe side.
