Flea & Tick Products
-
Most heartworm preventives do not protect against fleas or ticks - just the worm type parasites.
I've not encountered this requirement.
It seems to me if the kennel requires flea products then I would question taking my dog to that kennel. Are they doing a good job of cleaning up once fleas are discovered; do they isolate a dog if discovered to have fleas; are they notifying owners to keep their dog home until the owner resolves the problem; etc etc. -
My dogs are on monthly HW prevention but not on any monthly flea treatment.

This is Moxidectin. Also used in the horse paste wormer, Quest. I almost lost a horse due to an adverse reaction to this drug. I would not touch it again with a ten foot pole! Not worth the risk for the convenience…..

Has anybody tried an herbal collar? I don't give Spencer anything he doesn't have to have (and he already has to have plenty!). He's never had a flea issue, but the bugs and ticks are SO bad this year.

Herbal or natural does NOT mean safer. Since ther is rarely any double blind testing on "natural" products and no standardization of ingredients and no independent testing to see if claimed quantity of active ingredient is present, using these products is at least as dangerous as the effective pharmaceutical products.

I use frontline, almost everymonth, here we got super evil fleas and ticks.. duh!

OMG! what a dreadful but eye-opening story! thanks, Debra for that info. Good thing for informed consumers, I know we 'trust' our Vets, but this just makes one think about the importance of being informed about what goes into different drugs and thus into our beloved critters!
