Still searching for an effective flea treatment *sigh*

[misterjinglejay]

What does everyone think of Advantage as an effective product for dogs and cats, please?

Promeris is better..but you MUST treat the whole area with something like RIP spray to stop the breeding cycle.

I can ony recommend what I use, might not be for everyone, I do the house twice a year with INDOREX houselhold spray and I frontline (spray) NOT spot on's large bottle every 6 months or when ever I remember, and inbetween I stronghold (spot on's). I have a choice of any treatment from work and find these work best for me.
I have actually never had problems with fleas, I have 9 dogs, 4 cats and boarding dogs coming and going all the time.

Advocate doesn't do ticks...... At least the one my vet sells me doesn't. I've just double checked.

 

[shadowboy]

oh really? I cant remember it does loads of stuff. Worms, mites, ear mites etc. Just assumed ticks were included.

Advantix does ticks, fleas and sandflies.

Advocate fleas and a variety if worms (not tapeworm) but does do lungworm.
