In-expensive Route:
A better solution to this problem might be to look into purchasing monthly applications of Frontline, this may be cheaper and more effective than most shampoos if your keeping the Frontline applied each month.
Effective Route:
There is a fairly new product that is also if not better; Vectra 3D covers a wide variety of other parasites and what not besides just Fleas, and I recommend and our veterinary practice has now converted too completely. Vectra 3D, contact your local hospital on more information or to get a prescription or read more here:

If your pet has a decent amount of fleas, chances are your home may be a hotspot for fleas as-well and may want to be investigated so that the fleas do not return to your pet when the dosage wears.
