Because why? Flea meds/treatments are not prohibitively expensive. Besides it seems questionable at best (cruel at worst) to bathe a creature which licks itself to stay clean in fucking SPICES.

It's turmeric, not chili powder.

But yeah, it's still dumb unless the turmeric is a lot cheaper than proper flea medicine.

I will say the good flea medicine is actually fairly expensive
