I actually don't care much for sprays, in general - there are much better options for flea/tick control in dogs. My favorites are oral medications like Nexgard or Bravecto, but a Seresto collar or topical medication like K9 Advantix can also work well. If you really want to use a spray, I would suggest Frontline spray - it isn't always terribly effective for fleas, in my experience, but works well for ticks and should be safe. Many of the other over-the-counter sprays contain very harsh chemicals that can be dangerous, so I don't usually recommend them unless you have no other choices.

Unfortunately fleas only hop on the body of your pet when they want to feed, then they hop off again and stay in your pet's environment. So you need to treat all pets in the household as well as the environment (which contains the fleas, their eggs and larvae). Flea treatment: 1) Get some flea medication such as a Flea spray or a spot on from a pet shop or your veterinarian and apply monthly 2) get flea powder, put some in your vacuum cleaner bag and vacuum your house and furniture and also non-carpeted areas frequently to remove flea larvae and eggs which live off house dust., Dispose of the bag in the trash outside. Hot-wash all the pet's bedding, If you do this diligently for a few months you will get rid of the fleas. Flea products: Spot-ons: Advantage, Advantix (works against ticks also) Advantage Multi (Advocate in the UK) Frontline (ticks as well) Bravecto spot on (ticks as well) - for cats, in tablet form for dogs Revolution (stronghold in the UK) Tablets: comfortis (will only

I suggest you take Stormi to one of our VETCO clinics inside Petco to consult with the vet there. If the Seresto collar is not working he probably needs something stronger like one of the new oral flea pills (Bravecto, Nexgard or Simparica). ( vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/clinic-locations-and-schedules/?zip=70808 ) As for treating the house, I don't know what product you used but I suggest using Knockout Spray E.S. It is the only one I think really works. ( https://www.allivet.com/p-1389-knockout-es-area-treatment.aspx?SearchTerm=knockou+Auto ) If you have a yard I suggest you treat the yard too.
