Hello everyone.

I really would love to know if anyone has any information to backup if beaphar small animal spot on kills fleas?

And does the Bob Martin small animal spot on kill fleas and ticks etc...?

I would just like a bit more information about the project and if they do what they claim to do.

If not what other treatments would you recommend if I needed to treat for these things.

Hi!

Guinea pigs don't have species specific fleas and therefore don't usually suffer from them for more than very shortly as fleas from other species cannot survive on them and will abandon them again quickly.

Beaphar is not the best, and Bob Martin products are worse than useless as they cause a lot of unnecessary suffering.
Please be aware that broad spectrum flea powders often contain substances that are toxic and potentially fatal to guinea pigs. A first hand case is in the flea link below.
What you really should do and what you need to treat guinea pig specific parasites with is in the parasites link.
