Dog fleas; Siphonaptera Treatment: The objective of treatment is to break the flea life cycle by treating the home, the pets, and the outside environment with insecticide. Home foggers and flea collars are not always effective. Birds and fish must be protected during spraying. If home treatments are ineffective, professional extermination may be needed. An over-the-counter 1% hydrocortisone cream can help relieve itching. Expectations (prognosis): advertisement Once fleas are established, eliminating them requires persistence. The problem will continue until the fleas are eliminated. Complications: Scratching can lead to a secondary skin infection. Calling your health care provider: Apply home treatment and call your health care provider if there are signs of complications.
