Naturals are probably best. I know ';Buddy Wash'; has a flea and tick shampoo, conditioner, AND ';spritzer'; that's great. It also is soap-free and uses things like mint and lavander to calm and relieve itches and irritated skin.

This unique flea-repelling formula which includes generous amounts of aloe vera and vitamin E to soothe dry or irritated skin is all-natural and is gentle enough.';What is the best thing to look at in dog flea shampoo?
It is best to use a topical preventative instead of harsh chemicals to rid yourself of parasites on your dog. If you must use a shampoo to rid them then I suggest contacting http://naturalgroomer.com/index.html I am a professional groomer. I use this product and find that it is not harsh as it is detergent free. Whatever product you do choose, remember to put a drop of mineral oil in each eye of your pet to keep from damaging the eyes.
Flea shampoos are money makers, they do not work, stick with Frontlone of Stronghold spot on.

if they make one that is tear-free I'd buy that one. I buy Frontline monthly treatment, it's expensive but it works good!
Not looking for a flea shampoo, period, would be a better idea since they don't work. None of them. Reason being that they're not preventative - they might wash the fleas off (but probably not the eggs or larvae) and they're not preventatives - the dog will be reinfested before the day is out.





Flea shampoos are old hat, they only still sell because plenty of people still don't know any better. In fact, no flea products from stores actually work - stores aren't allowed to sell the correct chemicals i.e the ones that actually work and are safe.





Please go to a vets to get some proper treatment i.e Frontline, Revolution, Advantage or Advocate.

Read them carefully - you want one that KILLS fleas....so many simply REPEL them.


Also, check for either a GSL (General Sales List) mark, showing it is a liscenced 'chemical' (Sort of!) or a Vm Number, to show it is a Verterinary Medicine.


And, ASK in your local pet shop...they will help you choose the most suitable one for your needs.
