/* ---------- "ultrasonic gadgets to repel fleas..." ---------- */
Has anyone had any experience with the new wave of electronic
gadgets, both collars and units, which are supposed to rid your
dog and/or house of fleas? I hate to use any chemical on my dog
but so far, all my attempts at flea removal have not been successful.
Thanks in advance.

"Consumer's Digest" gives them a big goose-egg.

Try either the orange-peel based shampoos or perhaps the Avon 
(Skin-so-soft) method.  If you eat a lot of oranges, put the peels 
in the blender.

It worked for us (5 outside dogs) when nothing else would.


Good Luck.
