A cedar dog bed is often a first choice for someone wanting a fresh smelling dog bed or in an effort to repel fleas. Managing fleas takes a major, across-the-board effort once they are in your home. Talking to your vet is the best first step.

You can also give any bed you have a cedar scent with Cedarwood Oil Spray . Lightly spray the inside of the bed and allow to dry entirely before letting your dog curl up. Less is more here so start with one spritz and let it settle out a bit. Or you can soak a cotton ball or two and put that inside the bed. Do not spray it directly on any pet.
