I was just given a 11 week old puppy that is covered head to toe in flea bites. There are old scabs and new bites that are swollen and itchy. I have never seen anything like this before there are thousands of bites how can i relieve the puppies pain until the vet office opens on Monday?

    One of the things you can do for flea bites it bathe your dog to keep it clean and avoid a secondary infection. This you do with cold water since it will alleviate the inflammation and the itching while the hot or warm water will do the exact opposite. You can also apply aloe Vera juice to the skin to soothe it as well as enhance healing.

      Poor little thing. You can get flea shampoo at the store in the pet aisle. Be sure to read the directions very carefully, and be careful not to get the soap in the eyes. Place cotton balls in the ears, because the fleas will try to hide in there. Hope this helps, good luck.
