How to keep fleas away from our skin?

I thought I’ll be the only one with such problem. After reading a lot I realized it’s not us but our furry friends that attract flies. So, Bruno and Nora are responsible for the fleas around me. Thus, I found ways to just keep them away from them. I’ve started spreading salt on my carpet, apparently the smell of salt is repelling. I’ve started adding essential oils like lavender or hibiscus in mine and their bath. They cannot resist that smell either. Fleas normally are also on my coats, probably because they have moist texture, so during my wash I add little bit of oil in water too.

I am glad I am not the only one with this problem. If you have a pet at home, this is a casual problem. Nora is always surrounded by fleas, especially when it’s quite moist outside. I read on a blog about this, it said that essential oils really help in keeping them away from our skin. I’ve made it a habit of adding few drops of hibiscus oil in Nora’s baths and also sprinkle some on my coat. But you can add a few drops of essential oils in your bath too.
