Smoking Fanatic
I buy Brewers Yeast with Garlic tablets from " Cal Vet Supply" . They come in a jar of 5000 at an affordable price. I have a Labrador that weighs 80 pounds so I give him 8 tablets twice a day with his dog food. Garlic keeps fleas away and the brewers yeast gives him a healthy shiny coat. Never had a problem with fleas but my neighbors do. If you decide to try this method I have no idea as to how long it will take for the tablets to take effect but I would say it is well worth doing it. You feed 2 tablets for every 10 pounds of body weight and double up on them in the hot summer month's. I made a bunch of shish kabobs once that had a LOT of large sliced garlic in them. Needless to say we had leftovers for my lunch for a week. We went catfishing at night on the river and the mosquito's were thick but I didn't need any repellant ! They wouldn't even buzz near my ears because of the garlic smell that I was secreting from my pores ! So I learned what garlic can do other than keeping vampires away.
