Wormers & Flea Treatment

[Dyllymoo]

Can anyone recommend any that I can buy online?

I'm loathed to call the vets as the local one I took him to when I first got him and he had a minor eye infection were extortionate!

Advantage for fleas and Drontal for worms

Drontal for worms, Frontline for fleas and such. We also use Indorex spray for the house to kill off any eggs.

Thanks both.... I've ordered some now (just tagged it on to a Viovet order I had for J's supplements)

Advocate from the vet for fleas (also includes some form of wormer for some types of worm) then last time I got a spot on from the vet for tape worm as trying to get the enormous pill, the makers of which began with a D but I can't remember the full name, down him despite multiple attempts wasn't happening. There's also milbemax from the vet for worms which my mum's vet gives her. When they were kittens the vet gave me strong hold for fleas.

Just have to use the right timings as they need to be given about 2 weeks apart when the tape wormer is due to avoid them over lapping as Advocate contains some wormer treatment too

Do not touch Bob Martin its awful stuff and doesn't work, I've heard some awful stories about it too

What do you think about flea collars?

What do you think about flea collars?

In my opinion if they are treated regularly, with vet prescribed flea treatment (monthly) they shouldn't need one...

I buy Drontal and Frontline or equivalent for the yard cat. However I found even the vet prescribed Advocate stopped working for my own so I changed to Bravecto. It’s expensive but lasts 3 months. I don’t tend to treat in the winter as they tend to be ok until hunting season starts again. I also use Milbemax wormer.
