| Comfortis? Anyone use this for fleas and if so has it worked? Frontline Plus and the likes are not working for us anymore.... Went to the vet and they recommended this to us since we dont seem to have a tick problem... but I wanted to research it first... |

| This is Zoe's second month on Comfortis. First month, I didn't really notice any side effects; but this month, I "think" I am. I gave it to Zoe on April 2nd and now she is drooling and swallowing constantly. I read the insert and a side effect is excessive salivation. I'm going to see how long she has this reaction and make a decision if I should keep her on it. Zoe has never had fleas or ticks, so this is just a preventative for her. So far, so good as far as that goes right now. Good luck on your decision!

| Elaine, Don't you worry! I am such an overprotective mommy. I plan on calling the Vet first thing in the morning. The good thing about this is it is only a once a month pill so I don't have to worry about continuing to give it to her. I will talk to the vet and see what he has to say about changing her meds or alternative treatments. That's really interesting about the Dawn dishwashing liquid. I was up most of the night worrying about her and googling information. All I can find for her symptoms was the Comfortis. If you have any other ideas, please let me know. Other than the drooling and smacking, she is her normal self. She is only 5 months old and she is my first yorkie, so I appreciate any information/suggestions. Thanks!
