Why your pet needs All-in-One Flea Remedy
There's nothing quite like a flea infestation to strain the harmony of your household. Fleas make our pets feel miserable, and a miserable pet can make all of our lives unhappy! But too often in the past the solution has been to apply dangerous chemicals that aren't healthy for our pets, or for our environment. Fortunately, Only Natural Pet Store has a comprehensive line of natural products that work in tandem (see Complementary Approaches below) to help keep your pets and your household safely free from these stubborn parasites.

Suggested Use
ZONE 1 - On Your Pet
How to apply to a dog or catLightly work the material into the hair of the animal, using a comb or brush, paying strict attention to the scalp. Dust animal's ear with care. Individual ticks observed on the animal should be dusted thoroughly.
How much and how often to useAs a general guide, use approximately: 1-2 teaspoons for an average size cat1-6 tablespoons for a dog, depending on size
Do not reapply product for 30 days.
Please Note
Consult a veterinarian before using this product on debilitated, aged, preganant, nursing animals or animals on medication. If signs of sensitivity occur, bathe your pet with a mild soap and rinse with large amounts of water. If signs continue, consult a veterinarian immediately.
ZONE 2 - In Your Home
How to apply to carpetingFirst vacuum the carpet thoroughly and make sure it is dry. If fleas are already present, be sure to discard the vacuum cleaner bag immediately after vacuuming, or else sprinkle and vacuum up approximately 2 tablespoons of All-In-One powder to kill fleas, larvae and eggs in the bag. Sprinkle a light coating of All-In-One Flea Remedy over an area and using a broom or carpet rake, work it as deeply into the carpet pile as possible until it does not show. Hold the bottle low and shake gently when applying to minimize the dust created (see caution below). Use a broom to sweep up excess visible in surrounding non-carpeted areas.
Leave the powder in place for 3 days and then do a light vacuuming to pull out the dead fleas. It is important that powder deep in the pile remains in place for several weeks so that larvae hatching from eggs and new adults coming out of cocoons during this time will be killed as well. If you must vacuum thoroughly within the first 3 weeks after applying, re-apply 3 weeks after the date of first application, and again let the powder sit for 3 days and then vacuum.
One bottle of Only Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy treats approximately 500 square feet of carpet. In parts of the country with flea problems, repeat the application during flea season every one or two months as needed. Be sure to do one application early, just before the season starts.
How to apply to furniture or beddingSprinkle a light coating and work it into cracks and crevices, then vacuum or sweep away excess visible powder. Be sure to apply under small area rugs, bedding, and furniture, as this is where the eggs and larvae will accumulate.
How to apply to flooring and baseboardsSprinkle lightly and work into cracks and crevices with a broom, then sweep up excess visible powder.
How much and how often to useUse about 2 T (tablespoons) for every 10 feet of area. You may need to re-apply, depending on the severity of your flea infestation:
ZONE 3 - In Your Yard and Outdoor Pet Areas
To apply in your yard or gardenSprinkle Only Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy in outdoor areas where your pet spends time. Use approximately one bottle per 250 square feet of yard. In areas close to the house try to get it into cracks and crevices. The powder can be mixed with water and applied using a sprayer - use approximately two tablespoons per gallon of water. Fleas like shady, sandy, and moist areas, so be sure to remove yard debris, and keep grass mowed short in shady spots. Re-apply every 2-3 weeks in target areas if flea infestation is severe, or if you live in an area with a long flea season.
For wet applicationOnly Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy can be mixed with water at the rate of 2 ounces per quart of water. To aid in powder suspension, add one teaspoon of a mild detergent and agitate the sprayer while applying.
Other PestsOnly Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy is also effective against ticks, cockroaches, ants, bedbugs, carpet beetles, centipedes, crickets, earwigs, grasshoppers, millipedes, slugs, and silverfish.
As with any fine powder, overexposure may cause respiratory discomfort, so remove pets and small children to other areas when applying in the home or yard, and avoid inhaling the dust during application. It is a good idea to wear a mask if you are applying it over a large area and billows of dust may be created. If you have a compromised respiratory system, consider having a friend or family member apply the powder at a time when you are out of the house.
Diatomaceous earth is a drying agent, and may cause moderate eye irritation, so avoid contact with the eyes. Flush liberally with water if contact with the eyes occurs.
Only Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy is non-toxic and safe for your pet and family members. It will not harm pets if they lick their fur. Ingestion of or skin contact with Only Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy will not harm pets or people. It is safe to allow children, cats, dogs, and other pets to sit, lie, crawl, and play in areas that have been treated after excess visible powder has been swept up or removed.

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Only Natural Pet All-in-One Flea Remedy:
The day I got this in the mail I applied it on my 45 # mixed long haired dog . The instructions said within 2 days there would be relief! WOW ! The very next day my dog stopped scratching . The residue from the powder was worth the not scratching ! I left this on for 3 days and then I gave my dog a bath! I looked through his fur and scalp and NO fleas! I just recently used the powder on my cat and it worked just as well ! This does what it says and I will continue to purchase this from you! THANK you

Works very well on our cat.

I put this on my cat once a month and he's an indoor/outdoor cat. We've not had any fleas. I recommend this wholeheartedly.

About Me New Pet Owner
This is a good product to use especially for people that want to stay clear from the toxicity of commercial Spot Ons.
By chunky monkey
from Baldwin Park, Ca
I applied this powder on our very furry kitty and although it took a while for the fleas to disappear it does seem to do the job, not sure how long the effects last, however. I sprinkled powder on her usual lounging areas, rugs and outdoors as added protection. What I was not expecting was how wonderfully effective it worked on ants!! Any ant trails indoor or outdoor were completely obliterated by this magic powder I loved how well it eliminated all the ants without having to spray the usual smelly and toxic ant spray and how well it kept our kitchen bug free. I would highly recommend this product for ants and fleas.

Great for stopping indoor/ outdoor fleas
By Molly's mom
from Georgetown, KY
I use this product on pet bedding, on carpets, mats and even directly on my cats. We have feral cats, so I put this near their bedding and where they hang out. It's a great no chemical/natural way to get rid of fleas. I had read about this item and wondered if it really works and it does. It smells good as well.

A Lifesaver
By Liquorish
from Kiethville, La.
We took in a pregnant stray. She was wild at first. We built a pen for them so they would be safe. When the kittens were born, I noticed fleas. I used the computer to chat with someone from this store, and they recommended putting this on the mother and the kittens. Just a pinch or two, worked in real good. And I also used it on the pen floor (it was carpeted). What a life saver. Mother and babies were safe from toxic flea remedies and from fleas. I also washed their bedding every day. I absolutely love this store. (By the way, all 6 are sassy and BIG. They are now 4 years old) Liquorish

Safe and effective
By happy they're gone!
from Massachusetts
It doesn't kill them all immediately. I had to spread it throughout the house and on the pets a few times before they were completely gone, but it does work, and it kills the fleas without harming you or your pets.

Great at eliminating fleas
By Cat Lover in PA
from New Freedom, PA
My two indoor cats had fleas in November and December of 2012. I would comb them, at least 3 times a day, with a flea comb. After combing, I would apply this product to them. Our flea infestion was not that severe. The next day when I would comb one of them, I would find dead fleas on them. This product works! It is so safe that putting it directly on your pet will do no harm. :)

Not helpful so far
By Sarah
from Georgia
I have used this on my two cats and their bedding for about a month. I don't know where they are getting new fleas, but there hasn't been a reduction. I used it on the furniture too but the powder just seemed to rub off. I found live fleas on my cats less than an hour after applying the powder.

Drill is part of the military, they do a lot of sharp walking with rifles, flags or just like that, so Drilly is when you wake up in the morning and that you feel like you need to drill, not especially because you like it, but it is because you are too use to it. You also feel drilly when you wake up in the morning and you have dreamed about drill during your night.
-Oh, I feel drilly this morning!

Kimimaro (君麻呂, Kimimaro) was a member of the Kaguya clan and the fifth member and leader of the then-named Sound Five (音隠れの忍五人衆, Otogakure no Shinobi Gonin Shū, Literally meaning: Hidden Sound Shinobi Five People), and a loyal follower of Orochimaru. After he fell ill, the group was renamed the "Sound Four".
Kimimaro was the only survivor of the Kaguya clan, a family of battle-loving barbarians. Being a rare possessor of the clan's Shikotsumyaku kekkei genkai, Kimimaro's father feared his son's abilities and had him locked up in a cage unless needed for battle. The Kaguya clan was wiped out when they attacked Kirigakure, seemingly for no reason other than desire to kill. Having underestimated their opponents' defences, they were slaughtered, with Kimimaro the sole survivor. Wandering soon after, Kimimaro was eventually found by Orochimaru, and recruited as one of his most loyal ninja.[3][4]
Under Orochimaru, Kimimaro found purpose in his life as he desired to ensure the continuation of his master's dreams and ambitions. Though Orochimaru took him under his wing to be one of his future hosts, Kimimaro did not mind such a fate if it meant being of aid to his master. Soon after, Kimimaro met Jūgo, a berserker whom Kimimaro felt a kindred spirit with. Kimimaro's friendship with Jūgo led to the events that resulted with him branded by the Cursed Seal that Orochimaru developed from his research on Jūgo, whom Kimimaro talked into being experimented on in hopes that it would help him. With his new-found powers, Kimimaro defeated all four members of the Sound Four single-handed to be inducted into the renamed Sound Five. However, before his appearance in the story line, Kimimaro became afflicted by an unknown disease that destroyed what remaining worth he was to Orochimaru. Kabuto Yakushi attempted to cure Kimimaro, but to no avail due to Kimimaro's unique structure and lack of medical information on his clan.
Unlike the rest of his clan, Kimimaro didn't have a particular interest in fighting or killing and saw his abilities only as a means to be of use to others. He was a calm and quiet individual who would dedicate himself to whatever mission was at hand. As a child, he was more gentle despite his natural talent for combat and unique abilities which made him the strongest of his clan, as seen from him not wanting to hurt others he had no involvement with, and his interest in flowers. His gentleness is also reinforced by how empathetic and kind he was to Jūgo, being one of the few people able to keep Jūgo from losing control over himself.
After meeting Orochimaru, Kimimaro developed a strong devotion towards him, bordering on religious zeal or considering him a father figure (the manga suggesting the former, and the anime suggesting the latter), seeing Orochimaru's apparent kindness as a reason from him to exist under the notion that serving Orochimaru in anyway is the only purpose he has. Though Kimimaro's relationship with Orochimaru was similar to Haku's relationship with Zabuza, the only difference was that Orochimaru ultimately lost interest in him when he became of no use to him. Regardless, finding a new way to assert his existence, Kimimaro's dedication to Orochimaru was so great that he both willed his body to fight and proved to be an extremely dangerous opponent for the likes of Naruto Uzumaki, Rock Lee and Gaara. Gaara compared the eyes of Kimimaro to those of Sasuke Uchiha's, the eyes of those who only sought to prove their own existence, nothing more. Even after being reincarnated by Kabuto, Kimimaro retained his loyalty to Orochimaru and intended to carry out Kabuto's orders. Gaara commented on Kimimaro to be hasty and a extreme distaste for weak opponents, or "trash" ninja as he put it. As a result, he would kill any he considered "trash" ninja, regardless if they were friend or foe as was with the case of Tayuya for her group's failure to deliver Sasuke in time.
Despite his verbal disrespect of his opponents and over underestimating of their abilities, Kimimaro differs from his four colleagues in two ways: The first having a sense of honour in battle, as demonstrated when he halts to allow Rock Lee time to take his "medicine". Another difference is that he rarely showed any emotion other than surprise, except in moments relating to his ideals as seen when Gaara's insulting of his faith in Orochimaru caused him to become enraged before his death or when Kimimaro cried silently when he lost his usefulness to Orochimaru.
Kimimaro was characterised by his pale skin, vivid green eyes, masculine facial features, two dots on his forehead which all the members of his clan possessed, and shoulder-length white hair, which he wore divided down the middle on his head (distinguished by an atypical 'zigzag' hair parting) with two separate partings on either side of his face. As a child, Kimimaro's hair is longer, which is tied in a loose pony-tail near the middle of his back, though the initial style was very similar to his later one.
Under the wing of Orochimaru, Kimimaro wore a specialised version of the traditional Oto-nin ensemble, consisting of a light lavender, loose-fitting, long-sleeved, zip-up shirt, black pants cut off around mid-calf, bandages wrapped around his ankles, traditional shinobi sandals, and a purple, rope-like belt tied in an inverted bow around his waist. He also wore two red, tube-like hair ornaments; one on either side of his head, securing two locks of his silvery-white hair. He did not wear a Sound headband, despite his extreme loyalty to Orochimaru. His Cursed Seal of Earth is applied at the base of his throat, where it is a circular pattern of three curved lines.
Kimimaro was referred to by Orochimaru as the most powerful member of the Kaguya clan, having "abilities that even his war-loving clan feared". Because of this, he was locked away in a cage for most of his life, only released occasionally when needed to fight other clans. His fighting abilities far outclassed all the members of the Sound Four combined, and his mastery of the Cursed Seal even impressed Jūgo, who is the source of the Cursed Seal.[5] In fact, Kimimaro is the only person before Sasuke who could control Jūgo without exerting any efforts. The fact that he could fight Naruto, Lee, and Gaara while dying of disease, and never actually being defeated by them, indicates he was an extremely powerful combatant at his peak. Indeed, even near death, his mere presence was enough to frighten the normally-arrogant Tayuya, as well as retaining a high level of stamina, which he showed in his battles with Naruto Uzumaki, Rock Lee, and Gaara, battling all three one after the other without collapsing. In the anime, he could summon a wall of white smoke, which was powerful enough to push back several enemies.[6]
Kimimaro's abilities came from his kekkei genkai, Shikotsumyaku, which allowed the user to manipulate their own skeletal structure as a means of combat. Specifically, it allowed Kimimaro to manipulate his osteoblast and osteoclast cells, which are responsible for building or breaking down bone tissue. This ability gave him absolute control over the concentration of calcium within his bones, allowing him to control the density or malleability of them. Kimimaro also stated that his bones were stronger than tempered steel. Kimimaro used this ability to wield his bones as weapons in battle, and could use them in the form of taijutsu attacks (which he called dances) to give him a variety of abilities, as well as grant him a near-invincible defence, able to withstand most of the impact from even a chakra-enhanced blade. He can also grow an entire forest of gigantic bone blades. Orochimaru has stated that this was the ultimate taijutsu ability, which is held in high regard, and the main reason why Orochimaru desired Kimimaro to be his next vessel.
However as a downside, a user of the Shikotsumyaku abilities, such as Kimimaro has a different bodily structure than others, as Kabuto Yakushi claimed that there had been too little information on his body to give any medical treatment for his terminal illness.[7]
Physical Prowess
Kimimaro's abilities made him well suited for close-range combat fighting, demonstrating tremendous taijutsu skills combined with equally impressive speed, agility, and dexterity. He was able to defeat several hundred of Naruto's Nine-Tails-enhanced shadow clones effortlessly, at the same time not allowing himself to be struck. Kimimaro combined his Shikotsumyaku and taijutsu capabilities to form many deadly "dances". Rock Lee, a taijutsu virtuoso, has claimed that nothing was wasted in Kimimaro's movement, and that he was a taijutsu master. Kimimaro also possessed immense strength, enough to pull himself out of Gaara's chakra-infused sand, which is normally difficult, if not impossible, due to its sturdiness.
Kimimaro also had a very strong determination and endurance, as when his failing body would be impossible to physically move, he managed to force it through sheer will, and still proved to be a deadly opponent.
Cursed Seal
Like many others of Orochimaru's closest followers, Kimimaro was given a cursed seal, which granted him tremendous power. He bore the Cursed Seal of Earth, which is said to be equal in power to the Cursed Seal of Heaven, and both Seals are said to be the strongest amongst the ones used by Orochimaru. When in his Level 2 form, Kimimaro's appearance was similar to that of a dinosaur, with dark grey skin, six large bone spines protruding out of his back, and a long bone-spiked tail. Jūgo stated that Kimimaro had great enough skill with the Cursed Seal that he could do a partial transformation. Furthermore, Kimimaro's fighting style changed after entering his Level 2 state; he became much slower, but his physical strength increased to the point of smashing through Gaara's sand defences with a simple tackle, and his skin became thicker and harder, making it impossible even for Gaara's sand to penetrate it.

Part I
Chūnin Exam Arc
In the anime, Kimimaro was revealed to have participated in many of Orochimaru's schemes. He was seen to be responsible for killing the Kusagakure ninja so that Orochimaru would impersonate Shiore. At this point, he gave a bloody cough, but decided to ignore it. However, while participating in the assassination of the Fourth Kazekage and his bodyguards so that Orochimaru and the Sound Four could impersonate them, Kimimaro's disease fully manifests. He is sent back to Otogakure to be placed by Kabuto in intense medical care to keep him alive for as long as possible. Hearing that his failing health has made of no use to Orochimaru, Kimimaro began silently crying for losing his purpose.
Sasuke Retrieval Arc
When the Sound Four took too long in bringing Sasuke to Otogakure, Kabuto decided to wake Kimimaro and manipulate him into aiding them even if meant he would die. Regardless as he forced himself out of bed, Kimimaro resolved that bringing his replacement, Sasuke Uchiha, is the only purpose he can do for Orochimaru. Prior to leaving, Kimimaro went to see Jūgo one more time. Despite Jūgo's protest for his health, Kimimaro assured him that Sasuke is his legacy while thanking Jūgo for their friendship.
Arriving to find Tayuya and the casket holding Sasuke was in, Kimimaro threatened to kill her unless she kill some of the Konoha ninja, saying he only let her live because she had a duty to complete. He then left with the barrel, overpowering Naruto Uzumaki as Sasuke emerges from the coffin with Kimimaro covering his escape towards Otogakure. During the fight, revealing Orochimaru's intentions for Sasuke, Kimimaro was able to defeat Naruto when Rock Lee arrived and kicked him. Kimimaro saw Lee as a stronger opponent than Naruto.
When Kimimaro chased after Naruto when he started to go after Sasuke, Lee caught his bone, allowing Naruto to leave. Kimimaro proved to be more than a match for Lee at first, but after Lee started using the Drunken Fist he gained the upper hand, Kimimaro being unable to react to his unusual movements even after he had figured out what Lee was using. After Lee managed to land an attack on him, Kimimaro admitted he couldn't read his movements. He then activated the first stage of his cursed seal to overpower Lee. He then used his bones to cut Lee's face and knock him down.
When Lee started to sober up, Kimimaro gained the upper hand again and struck Lee down. Believing he had killed Lee, he started to go after Naruto, but Lee stood up again in time. He caught Lee's kick with his bones and almost killed him. Gaara arrived at that moment, saved Lee, and began fighting Kimimaro instead. Kimimaro then retracted his bones as he acknowledged Gaara as a stronger opponent, his sand being a strong defence. He guessed Gaara wasn't a close combat fighter, recognising the difficulty of bringing Gaara to close range. When Gaara started to attack him, Kimimaro tried to use his Ten-Finger Drilling Bullets while dodging Gaara's attacks. Noting that all of Gaara's techniques involved sand, he pointed out it was foolish for Gaara to fight somewhere where there wasn't sand. Gaara brought Kimimaro's attention above to distract him while he caught hold of Kimimaro by his feet, and proceeded to explain that as long as he had his sand, he could use it to make more.
Kimimaro was then trapped and crushed by Gaara's sand, but survived by creating a layer of bone under his skin. He then activated the first stage of the Cursed Seal of Earth and broke out. Kimimaro admitted that he had underestimated Gaara, but will not make the same mistake again. After surviving being buried by Gaara's tsunami of sand, Kimimaro tried to land a hit on Gaara, but his Armour of Sand blocked it. He then used his two-part dance to restrain and kill Gaara, but it couldn't break his ultimate defence.
After Gaara insulted Kimimaro's loyalty to Orochimaru, Kimimaro begins to lose his focus before being buried two hundred metres below the ground, where the pressure can crush even steel. Kimimaro, however, used the last one of his dances to turn the battlefield into a forest of bones, that Gaara and Lee barely escaped by hanging onto a small cloud of sand, with the former's chakra reserves depleted. Fuelled by his hatred of hearing Orochimaru insulted, Kimimaro emerged from one of the bones and prepared to rip the two to shreds. However, he finally succumbed to his illness just before he could kill Gaara and died where he stood. Gaara later came to the conclusion that none can defeat loneliness, even if it means to care for a person like Orochimaru.
Part II
Shinobi World War Arc
In preparation for the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kimimaro is reincarnated by Kabuto Yakushi to fight against the Allied Shinobi Forces. After being mobilised, he becomes part of the group that Chūkichi requests assistance from, alongside Chiyo and Hanzō. He later encounters the remnants of the Surprise Attack Division with this improvised team, where Deidara is imprisoned. Pursuing the retreating opposition retreats, Kimimaro contemplated how Orochimaru's chakra, via Kabuto, now flows within him while having resolve to complete his assigned goals.
When enemy reinforcements arrive from the Fifth Division to provide assistance, Kimimaro attacks them with his Shikotsumyaku, which manages to pierce even the samurai's chakra-infused blades. Fatally impaling several of these samurai by the following day, Kimimaro observes the arrival of Naruto's shadow clone, who notes that the outcome of this battle will be different than their last. Remarking that his appearance demonstrates that time had passed, he is then seemingly struck by Naruto's Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.
When Impure World Reincarnation was released, a shocked Kimimaro — who was still battling the Alliance's members — was enveloped in a light of sorts before his soul ascended from his deconstructing body to return to the afterlife.
Kimimaro's words to him that Sasuke, who bore a curse seal like himself, is his living legacy inspired Jūgo to follow Sasuke by joining his group and following Sasuke's orders without question.
Through Kabuto Yakushi reincarnated Kimimaro for the Fourth Shinobi War, he also assimilated Kimimaro's DNA along with the rest of the Sound Five. By using Sakon and Ukon's kekkei genkai, Kabuto can manifest a construct of Kimimaro with access to his Shikotsumyaku kekkei genkai.[8]

Director of Soccer Operations - Tom Soehn
Birthplace – Chicago, IL
Hometown - Chicago, IL
Citizenship - American
Years with Whitecaps FC – 2010-present (as director of soccer operations); 2011 (as acting head coach)
Acquired - 2010.1.19
Previous Club – D.C. United
Tommy Soehn, 45, brings extensive experience in Major League Soccer (MLS) as both a coach and a player, having been part of the league since its inception in 1996. A native of Chicago, Illinois, he joined Whitecaps FC in January 2010 as director of soccer operations to develop and manage the club's player scouting, identification, recruitment system and roster.
On May 30, 2011, Soehn returned to the coaching ranks when he replaced Teitur Thordarson as head coach for the remainder of the club's inaugural MLS season. Soehn returned to his duties as director of soccer operations at the end of the 2011 campaign after Martin Rennie formally succeeded Thordarson as Whitecaps FC head coach for the 2012 MLS season following the Scotsman's appointment on August 9, 2011.
Soehn brings nine years of MLS coaching experience to Whitecaps FC, including six seasons at MLS club D.C. United – the last three as head coach. From 2004 to 2006, he served as assistant coach to Peter Nowak at the Washington, D.C., outfit. During that time, United won both the 2004 MLS Cup title and the 2006 MLS Supporters' Shield as regular season champions. On December 21, 2006, Soehn succeeded Nowak as head coach and enjoyed a successful first season with United, with the club defending their MLS Supporters' Shield title in 2007. His second season in charge saw United win the 2008 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup title before he led the club into the group stages of the inaugural (2008-09) CONCACAF Champions League. As Lamar Hunt US Open Cup winners, United returned to the CONCACAF Champions League for the 2009-10 season and reached the group stages for a second straight year. As United head coach from 2007 to 2009, Soehn registered a 55W-48L-31D record in all competitions, including an overall MLS record of 36W-31L-25D.
Prior to joining D.C. United, Soehn served as assistant coach with hometown club Chicago Fire. He first assisted former United States national team head coach Bob Bradley during both the 2001 and 2002 seasons before serving in the same role for then Fire head coach Dave Sarachan in 2003.
Soehn's time in professional soccer also included a distinguished 13-year playing career as a defender/midfielder in both the indoor and outdoor game in North America. This included four seasons in MLS with Dallas Burn (now known as FC Dallas) and Chicago. After being selected in the second round (13th overall) of the MLS Inaugural Player Draft in February 1996, Soehn missed out on the league's first season of existence through injury before returning to action the next year, as Dallas won the 1997 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup title. In 1998, Soehn returned home to join expansion club Chicago following a midseason trade from Dallas. He then helped the Illinois-based outfit to a memorable first year of existence, as the Fire won both the MLS Cup and Lamar Hunt US Open Cup titles that year. That was followed by another Lamar Hunt US Open Cup title with Chicago in 2000.
Soehn's playing career also included a spell in the old Canadian Soccer League with Ottawa Intrepid and Hamilton Steelers in 1989 and 1990. He then played a further three seasons in the old American Professional Soccer League (APSL) with Colorado Foxes from 1992 to 1994. During his time with Colorado, the defender/midfielder won two APSL championship titles in 1992 and 1993. He also claimed the 1992 'Professional Cup' North American Club Championship with Colorado, with the Foxes defeating Whitecaps FC (known then as Vancouver 86ers) 5-3 on aggregate in the first round of the competition. Soehn also spent part of his career playing professional indoor soccer. This included spells with Wichita Wings in the Major Indoor Soccer League/Major Soccer League (1988 to 1992) and National Professional Soccer League (NPSL - 1993 to 1996), Denver Thunder (NPSL – 1992-93 season), and Las Vegas Dustdevils (Continental Indoor Soccer League – 1995 season).
Soehn and his wife Jean have four children.
