Types of flea shampoos and their virtues

Flea shampoos can be divided into 2 types:

  • Detergents for preventive purposes. They are composed of nutrients and natural, plant extracts, essential oils to repel insects.
  • Zoo shampoos for the destruction of fleas contain insecticidal substances, the formula of which depends on the manufacturer.
