Question
i want to know at what age can i bath my dogs puppies as they are covered in fleas.they are only 1 week old and live out side and i can't stand looking at all the fleas.please help.

Answer
Hi melissa. At this age, the best you can do is bring them inside, and bath them with warm water and Dawn dish washing liquid. Just make sure you rinse them off really well, and a good tip: pick fleas off while you have them under running water. use your kitchen sink if you can, it works the best. Just make sure you don't get the water or soap on their faces. Treat mom as well.
