Yes, it does. One of the local humane societies uses it as a cheap way to get rid of fleas, and I have used it for several years. The generic with the same active ingredient also works just as well. Try it and you will see the fleas washing off, and those that remain are stunned or dead.

Products designed for humans should never, ever be used on pets unless following specific veterinary instructions. I cannot emphasis this strongly enough!

A great many dogs suffer from skin problems owing just to being shampooed with preparations made for humans. Even the mildest baby shampoo will cause them to itch.

There are great and inexpensive dog shampoos on the market; if these are still too expensive for you, a daily session under a just-warm shower followed by a good towelling, especially in cold weather, will make a big difference.

Never use dog shampoos on cats, and vice versa.

If your dog is suffering badly from itching, take it to a veterinarian or animal clinic.

Are dog shampoo and human shampoo the same?

No, a dog shampoo is much gentler. If you would like to use human shampoo, a baby shampoo would be best in case it gets in the eyes. Also, human shampoo tends to have a higher pH level and is too strong for the dog, causing move harm than good. If you do decide to use human shampoo, be sure to rinse very thoroughly so that no residue is left that can cause irritation.


What Kinds of soap can you use to give a five week old puppy a bath?

Any soap specifically designed for puppies; your supermarket will stock dog shampoos. You mustn't use human-type soaps because the skin of furred animals such as dogs is very sensitive and soaps and shampoos designed for humans are too harsh and could cause skin irritation.
