A lot of people seem to suggest garlic..?. ((but I have read on some sites that garlic can be toxic to cats..??.)), others seem to suggest the B vits can help (like brewers yeast)...anyway, does anyone know, or can anyone help ?!!

Garlic or a little Brewers Yeast (for dogs). Yes Garlic is toxic for cats. Neem oil is supplosed to work and we are just testing a Neem oil shampoo on our cats at the moment. If use use just the oil it should be used in very small quantities and well diluted.
Some people recommend dyna-mite for dogs
