Frontline also, is a bit expensive. $60 for 3 months! My question is, would it be bad to use a flea/tick collar or flea/tick spray when he goes outside? I also just got a free sample of Minksheen and it says it has repellant in it... does it actually work? Or should I just stick with Frontline? The problem is, it seems vets push and push for Frontline and Advantix, but don't teach you about other options for our dogs, so I'm clueless as to what I should do. |
I know you can get Frontline on e-bay for much less than vets charge. I have heard flea collars don't really work and I had a horrible experience with one getting stuck in a dogs mouth and made her sick. Also, some on line stores charge less for Frontline. Vets charge so much - makes me mad!
