Design Tip: Flea B Gone Shampoo | Evermine Blog
I’m always looking for homemade gifts I can give to people for their dogs. This all-natural shampoo is packed with essential oils that fleas hate, but the castile soap is kind to fur. It has a fresh scent and it leaves fur glossy and flea-free. I use it on my own pooch and happily make up a bunch of extras to give to friends and family.
