Allergic to Fleas

My bengal was highly allergic to fleas. He had ripped all the fur off of his tall, long body that he could reach. He looks like an abandoned, neglected alley cat.

 

My vet and I tried all kinds of steroids, etc. to help his fur return to no use. Revolution did not work on Leo. I switched to Advantage Multi and decided to put 99% Aloe Vera gel on his almost furless body. Everytime Leo walked by me I was putting more Aloe Vera on him. He growled and hissed at me, but since I drink Aloe Vera Juice everday for the last nine years since I was diagnosed with Chrons and it has saved my life, I knew that this would help his skin heal, plus keep any fleas off and when Leo tried to lick it off it would help him internally too! Well it's been 2 years and Leo's fur is awesome, no fleas, no scabs and he does not try to rip any fur out anymore! I had people make comments that he looks neglected and abused before and they couldn't believe the difference! But please note, it needs to be 98-100% pure Aloe Vera Gel (any brand), not a lotion that has other ingredients in it!! I'm sure this would work for any animal with fur! I still use flea control also.
