Ingredients

About 20 fresh mint sprigs, plant stalk and all

1 cup water

2 tsp vanilla extract

½ cup Johnson’s Baby Shampoo

Directions

place the mint and water into a cooking pot

bring to a rolling boil.

Add the vanilla and incorporate thoroughly

(the vanilla relaxes the ‘sting’ of the mint against poor pet’s raw or tender skin)

allow to cool

add the Johnson’s baby shampoo and stir until soapy bubbles form

strain into a dish

wash your pet with this

try to leave it on your pet for five minutes

rinse off gently with tepid water and pat the pet dry

Note:

This shampoo is safe for both cats and dogs

This is great! My pooch has some fleas, and the store-bought stuff seems to do nothing.
I'm making this up today

Our cats won't like the bath, but they'll be minty fresh!

My cat has fleas, and luckily she loves the water. So it shouldn't be too hard to give her this bath. Thanks

OH!!! Thank you so much for this recipe! Thank you 5 times!!! (I have 5 cats. lol) I am gonna try this one for sure. I hate all those store bought ones...they are usually expensive and they don't work half the time. Besides, they can actually poison your pet if you use them too much. As far as the "appetizer" and "side dish"... maybe you should have labled it desert. After all, its a sweet ending to fleas! lol

Just an added note, Elaine.
I tried this on my poochie, and since then, he has been sleeping like a little baby! No itching and jumping, biting at the damn fleas!
Thanks a million! Great stuff that is :)
I'd give you another five if I could, but since we are only allowed to vote once :(
Oh well -- an honorary five then!

PS:'Thank-you' barks from Sniffer! :)

Can't wait to try this out on my 2 dogs. Wonder if I could use it on my guinea pig and rabbits?
