Flea Free Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How does FLEA FREE work?
A. When FLEA FREE is added to your pet’s food or drinking water, it goes to work internally producing an enzyme which shields the protein that the female needs to lay her eggs. If she can’t find what she needs, she jumps off, without biting, in search of another host to feed on. If she doesn’t draw blood within 20 to 22 hours she will die thus interrupting the productive cycle.
Q. Does Flea Free really work?
A. We do not claim that Flea Free works on all animals just as medications do not work on all individuals, however we found that 99.3% of animals tested had favorable results. This is why we are confident in offering a 100% money back guarantee. Either Flea Free works or it’s free.
Q. Is Flea Free safe?
A. Yes! FLEA FREE products are all natural. They do not contain any poisons, chemicals, preservatives, artificial colorings, or flavorings. Flea Free products do contain garlic, vinegar, citrus, & beneficial herbs, all essential for the health of your pet.
Q. I have heard that garlic is not safe to give to pets. Is this true or is it a myth?
A. The ingredient in garlic that can be harmful is the allicin. Too much of it can lead to a type of anemia. The garlic used in the Flea Free products is air-dried garlic, which contains the least amount of allicin. Raw garlic has a high amount of allicin, so is raw garlic that can cause problems if used in excess.
The small amount of Flea Free used in the drinking water or food is so slight that there is no cause for any concern.
Garlic has been used for centuries as an insect repellent and has been known for its healing properties. You may use this product with total confidence.

Even when pets are free of fleas or have been treated, it’s a good idea to use an insect spray when walking through a wooded or untreated infested area.

One spray will last two to three hours and can be used as often as needed for protection.

This will kill the fleas or ticks that are presently on the animal. Also kills head lice.

Two possible reasons are:
1. You have purchased too small of a bottle for the amount of animals you are trying to treat and run out of the product before all of the fleas and ticks are gone. On average this takes 3 days up to three weeks to get rid of the fleas and the other blood-sucking insects.
Pure white animals sometimes take a little longer.
2. You are not giving the proper amount EVERY DAY until the fleas and ticks are gone.
