<p>Are any <strong>natural</strong> insect repellents effective against fleas?</p>

<p>Although very effective, DEET products are controversial and many people have shied away from their use in favor of natural products with <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/B00AAA9DS0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">herbs</a>, <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/B00A65IZPQ" rel="nofollow noreferrer">lemongrass</a>, and <a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/B004N59OFU" rel="nofollow noreferrer">eucalyptus</a>.</p>

<p>Are any DEET-free insect repellents effective against fleas?</p>

<p>Clearly related to <a href="https://outdoors.stackexchange.com/questions/9426/are-deet-based-insect-repellents-effective-against-fleas">this question</a> but not a duplicate (in fact, the exact opposite). I'm asking about natural alternatives.</p>
