Pennyroyal, the herb is supposed to but it's hard to find...My vet says anything that lathers will kill the fleas, even your own shampoo, but it's got to be a continuous thing...due to the eggs hatching. PS...If you've never seen a flea egg, they're a black tiny dot like like this "." small dot & hard. If you find one pick it up on a white paper & squash it with something until it bursts....you will see blood.

I don't even leave the dish soap on for 5 minutes and it works. Start at the head first so the fleas do not invade the dog's eyes and ears. It's the only thing I use.
