This product works very well and leaves your animal smelling fresh and clean for a couple of weeks. I've read several reviews and it seems people don't get that when your dog or cat have fleas, it's a multi treatment process: not a 1-wash and you're done. Additionally, you need to get rid of your animals bedding, get new bedding. You need to make sure your house is not infested in the areas where they frequent the most. If you don't do the above, every time you shampoo your pet, they will go back to those areas where they were laying before you washed them and they will get reinfested. When my cat had fleas years ago, that's when I got introduced to this shampoo. I actually washed my cat in the dawn dishwashing liquid first and I leave my cat in that dishwashing liquid submerged in the water darn near up to her eyeballs for at least fifteen minutes. I'm constantly combing her while she's submerged in the soapy water to get the fleas, tics, and eggs off of her. They will typically sink to the bottom of the water because the soap is so heavy on their bodies it weighs them down and they sink to the bottom. They can't swim up and jump out of it because of the weight of the soap. I then will rinse her a lot, refill renter the sink with Adams soapy shampoo darn near up to her neck again, after that Dawn bath, for about another15 minutes. Please be sure you are doing frequent combing out of their fur while they are submerged in the water to get the fleas, tics and eggs off. I'm doing this back to back. Then, because My cat had a section of the basement infested with the fleas, I literally set up a desk lamp that had a wide base (to place a weight on it so it wouldn't tip over), with a bendable neck and had it facing the floor. I would then place a wide short bowl of water with really soapy dishwashing liquid in it, under the light, and leave it there overnight. I'd do this every single day, all day and night, until the fleas wouldn't jump in the water anymore. Id also wear a pair of white sports socks up to my knees every single time you go in the area where the dog or cat may have invested. If you no longer see them jumping on your socks after you clean everything up you're good. Here were the steps I took to get rid of a flea infestation in my basement and on my cat. NOTE: i found out someone that I let stay in my house for a week visited someone's house, while they were visiting me, whose cat/ house was flea infested. 🤬 1. Literally gave my cat a double 30 minute bath. 15 minute soak in dawn blue dishwashing liquid while constantly coming with a fleet comb while your pet is still in the water. This will help to remove/loosen the fleas, tics, and eggs into the soapy water where they will pretty much sink to the bottom of the tub. 2. after bathing your pet do not put them back in the same place where the investigation was. You will need to place your cat in a infestation is eradicated. 3. Throw away your cat's stuff and buy all new stuff. 4. Buy the flea and tick pills that are hard. Grind them up and put them in your cat's food. When the ticks and fleas bite your pet, ingest their blood, and they die. This really helped to clear my cat's body of fleas as well. 5. Buy the food grade diotamatious earth and one of those little tiny accordion looking things that you put the powder in. As you squeeze it in the areas where the fleas were, the powder blows out nicely dispersed. It blows the powdery substance out far and wide in the area. 6. Every time you vacuum, make sure you suck in some diotamacious earth inside of your vacuum FIRST. Then vacuum everywhere like crazy a lot! Diotamatious Earth will kill them on the spot. It sticks into their bodies like shards of glass. Vacuum daily with this process until your issues have resolved and fleas gone. 7. PLEASE DO THE DESK-LAMP-SOAPY-BOWL AND LIGHT PROCESS ON THE FLOOR DAILY UNTIL YOU DO NOT SEE THEM JUMPING INTO THE BOWL ANYMORE. YOU WILL DUMP THIS WATER DAILY AND REDO YOU NO LONGER SEE PLEASE AND THE BOWL THE NEXT DAY. 8. IF YOU HAVE ANY SORT OF INFESTATION, EVEN A SMALL AMOUNT, WEAR TALL WHITE SPORTS SOCKS EVERY TIME YOU ENTER THE AREA THAT YOU'RE PET FREQUENTS REGULARLY. FLEAS WILL JUMP ON YOUR CLOTHES, AND YOU WILL TAKE THEM EVERY OTHER PLACE IN YOUR HOUSE WHERE YOU WALK. YOU CAN VACUUM THE FLEAS OFF OF YOUR SOCKS AS YOU LEAVE THE AREA. PLACE THOSE SOCKS IN SOAPY WATER FOR AT LEAST FIFTEEN MINUTES, SCRUB THEM, RINSE THEM OUT, LET THEM DRY, AND REUSE. SORRY IF I FORGOT ANYTHING. I TRULY HOPE. THIS HELPS ANYONE.

I’ve been battling a horrible flea infestation for over a month now. I bathe my cat and dog every other day with Dawn dish soap and their regular shampoos (Wahl for my dog and Furminator for my cat) and even took them to the groomers for a flea bath. I applied topical medication on each of them (Frontline for my dog and Advantage II for my cat). I’ve vacuumed, mopped, sprayed insecticide and IGR, and laundered everything almost daily, but it seems as though I’ve been fighting a losing battle. Despite everything, I would still find dozens of fleas on their bodies (immediately after their baths), and my poor pets are scratching themselves raw. I’m sure all the baths and chemicals are drying out their skin too (they certainly are for my hands!). I have to say this shampoo was a nice relief for my pets. I soaped up my pets for 5 minutes with Dawn dish soap and rinsed. Then I repeated with the Adams shampoo (5 minute lather and rinse thoroughly). The shampoo had a really nice lather. I followed directions and only used 3 tablespoons of shampoo for my 15lb dog and 2 tablespoons for my cat. I thought the volume of shampoo would not be enough but the shampoo was so thick, that it was more than sufficient. Fleas floated away with the rinse. The smell has a soft, powder scent which reminds me of the scent of the groomer’s regular shampoo. After rinsing, there was almost a greasy residue on their fur, which I’m sure is soothing for their dry skin. ***UPDATE (3 weeks later): I’ve been solely using this shampoo now, and I have been regularly giving my pets weekly baths (with a 5-minute soak). A month has passed, so I reapplied the same brand of topical anti-flea/tick medicine. My dog has had the topical on for about 1 week and my cat for only 48hours. I just gave them a third bath with the Adams shampoo and I only found about 5-6 fleas on each of them. Every week I bathe my pets, the water runs red from all the flea dirt on them, but this time the water was clear! There has been minimal itching and scratching during the week, so I know the shampoo is helping. An added benefit is that their coats look so much healthier and softer. My white dog’s coat is bright and white. The powder smell lasts through the week too, so they continue smelling nice, well past the bath. I cut down vacuuming and laundering their bedding to 1x/week because the cleaning has been overwhelming. The temperature has dropped this week to below freezing and the gas heat has been on. I know humidity impacts the growth of fleas, so I’m not sure if one particular thing or the combination of everything has been making the difference, but what matters is that the flea count is dwindling...finally! I would highly recommend this shampoo, but I suggest using gloves because it can be very drying on the hands. Very few products are both cat and dog friendly too, so that is an added benefit when you have both. ***UPDATE (4 months later): So fleas are officially gone! I believe they've been gone since late December/early January. After the last update, I gradually reduced the baths to every other week and kept my pets updated on their monthly flea/tick medication. As I said before, I'm not sure what exactly did the trick but I believe this shampoo was a major contributor to the solution! I actually stocked up on this shampoo because my husband and I love it so much! ***UPDATE (7 months later): It’s been well past the scourge of fleas in our home (THANK GOODNESS), but I just wanted to rave about this product some more. I bathed my my long-haired Persian cat with this shampoo recently and he still smells great- weeks later! Also, I love how it conditions his fur. I didn’t even use conditioner and his fur is full, soft, and mat free!

This product is very effective and easy to use. The scent is pleasant, and it helps to soothe our cat’s skin and reduce scratching from fleas. It kills the fleas within minutes and keeps them away for a few weeks.

I worked for vets when I was young adult! We used this all the time! Worked good and best part is ur dog smells great for like a frn WK after u use it!!! Cleans great makes dog smell great!!

AND MAKE SURE TO NEVERRRR EVERRR USE THE DOG ONE ON ANY CATS!!!! U CAN KILL THE CAT BY DOING SO!! DOG ONE IS MADE FOR DOGS ONLY!!

Helped to treat fleas, did not stop fleas , had to give more than one treatment

I have a small dog (around 13 lbs) and I bought this 12 oz. item back on 7/4/2024. I only use a small amount as directed and this bottle has lasted me well over a year and a half!!! I’m still using it to this day! The product works great! I am so happy with this purchase and I highly recommend it to anyone who’s looking for a good flea & tick dog shampoo!

Pics are of eggs and dead larvae/pupae still being shed 3 days after bathing our 7lb cat. She spent several hours in this spot overnight, then I brushed the debris into a small pile. White bits are eggs, dark bits are pupae/larvae 🤢 And pics of cats post-bath finally able to relax and not be so itchy! I had been using over-the-counter Frontline Plus on our two indoor/outdoor cats and it was apparently not effective AT ALL. While waiting for our vet appt to get an Rx for a better flea med, I bought this and bathed both cats. I let them soak in the soapy water to drown the adult fleas as well. Holy moly! You do need to follow the directions and let the shampoo sit on them for five minutes to kill the adult fleas, and you do need to rinse it EXTREMELY thoroughly. My forearms were definitely a tad itchy where shampoo got on them so I would NOT recommend for pets with sensitive skin! Although as soon as I rinsed my arms they were fine. After the bath, half-dead fleas were literally falling off the cats onto the tile floor. It was so satisfying and gross! Once dry, they've continued to shed HUGE amounts of eggs and dead larvae/pupae for DAYS - also gross and extremely satisfying! Needless to say, I am vacuuming like crazy and laundering everything in our house on the sanitize cycles of our washer & dryer. No one in the family was getting bit and there weren't many signs of an infestation so I had no idea how bad it was! Also doing a round of dewormer - although my cats aren't showing signs of worms, with the number of eggs and larvae I'm seeing it seems impossible they wouldn't have them. So glad I decided to do the bath!
