Can sulfur in pet food really keep fleas and ticks away?

I was told that putting sulfur in pet food kills fleas and ticks and prevents them from biting an animal for a whole year and its nontoxic to the animals. Or spreading sulfur on the ground kills all fleas and ticks. Is this true?

    Sulfur will likely kill the pet, which will keep the fleas away since they require a live body to get blood from.

    Please just ask your vet, the meds to keep fleas and ticks off is not expensive.
