#1 Flea Killing Fort Worth Veterinarian Warns: ’Look Here, Look There, There are Blood Sucking Fleas Everywhere!’

Blood sucking fleas are the problem as another hot summer approaches Fort Worth. A-Animal Clinic & Boarding Kennel has found a solution for these “blood sucking little rascals” by educating pet owners on what to do to prevent fleas from causing more serious health problems for their pets.

Fort Worth, Texas: A-Animal Clinic & Boarding (http://www.a-animal.com/boarding.html) has officially put the Fort Worth flea mob on notice: “Your time is up! We are here to protect our furry friends and kick ya’ll out of the Great State of Texas!”

“Our doctors and technicians educate every pet owner that walks in our Veterinary clinic by asking them to take our flea education survey,” says Dr. Karen Spikes, owner of A-Animal Clinic & Boarding. "Educating the community on preventative measures is priority and will increase the awareness plus lessen the health damages fleas cause when left out of control. Our mission is to protect pets and families from the diseases fleas carry. We’re giving away 3, 1 year supply of Comfortis flea tablets. Anyone can come by our office, fill out a 4 question survey, and they will be entered for a chance to win.”
