Where Are The Fleas?? Can't Post

I've read the topic titled 'Dog Fleas!' and it says to use Front-Line something. How good is it? My Hazel wore her flea collar((RM23.. grr)) for 3 months and still scratch and scratch. I've picked out small specks of black from her fur but still scratch Unimpressed. Is Front-Line good and how deep in her fur are the fleas? Her fur is short like a Lab's. I bath her every week with this shampoo called 'Troy'. Not sure if it is working. She get doggie smell the next day. Not so bad, Nutro Lamb and Rice helping. The shampoo smells like a car wash. Urgh.. But her fur is softer since eating Nutro for around 1 1/2 months. Oh yah, another question: I only bought a brush for her and those things to help pick out the fur, sort of a spikey thing. Must I buy a comb?

Another question hit me..: I'm bringing her to the Paws For a Day, Paws For a Cause Park Event. Will the other dogs present set more fleas on her?

The comb is like human one except for dogs ((No diff?)). Spikey is this sort of thing you use to brush horses... Troy good? I use the Puppy Coat but ain't working! Fido sounds ok, my cat used Fido cat soap.

Haha, I've brought her to the Park before for an event by Alpo/ProPlan, Maybank, Fun With The Sun and SPCA. She didn't seem to be scratching even after interacting with a few American Cockers, a Golden Retriever and some others. Just worried.

Well,

dogs like comunicating wif other dogs so they dont feel like scratching... Your dog is distracted by the other dogs so she wouldnt scratch. Even Sidney...He's distracted by walking so he wouldnt stop on hot floor and scratchSmile.

No just scratch until fur fly everywhere.

I went to search at Pet Safari yesterday. Said they sell it at their vet's. But the vet closed 10 mins earlier! Me was angry. But I got a cheap new leash for Hazel. She chew old one into bits. The metal one scared will get electric shock when walking in the rain/going 2 rain Blush.
