I was under the impression that products like Frontline, etal contained IGIs (insect growth inhibiters). In other words, the flea bites the dog, lays eggs, they hatch into pupae (or whatever), but their growth only goes so far......it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to kill the eggs, and it only takes a couple to get the whole process going again. We got the fleas from a "rescue" dog that we tried to save.
We only had one experience with fleas.....and I don't want another! We ended up having to bomb the whole house and dip the dogs. I now give the dog a bath with flea shampoo after hunting and after a trip to the vets (we've picked up some from the waiting room there as well)
