Hey guys! i went buy some flea medicine and freaked out when it ended up being 60 bucks i find that extremely high! i use advantage. Sooo i was just wandering What do you use and how much do you pay for it ? Thanks

Potter · 12-22-2006, 07:02 PM

I use Advantage too. Its Can$14.50 for one plus taxes about Can15+. So for 4 tubes its like Can$60.How many do you get for that price?

GracieLou · 12-22-2006, 07:08 PM

4 tubes

Potter · 12-22-2006, 07:22 PM

I guess that is the price then. I got mine from the vet though.

GracieLou · 12-22-2006, 07:47 PM

Anyone else

yorkieaddict · 12-22-2006, 07:52 PM

I am using Sentinel which is for fleas, heartworms, roundworms etc. It is about $80 for 12 pills. Use once a month. Now I have 4 dogs so ughhhh! I do not want to do the math...

rscaggs · 12-22-2006, 09:04 PM

I use advantage on my two dogs and one cat and I get it from the vet, my total every month is $61.00

Shelby&Seymour · 12-23-2006, 01:43 AM

Yep, that sounds about right 4 for 80 bucks. BUT..... I use 1 tube and SPLIT it between my 2 furkids. So I actually have 8 applications. I have never had any issues with doing it this way. My vet said that it shouldn't be a problem.

I use REVOLUTION and pay 112$ for a year's supply (once a month application) 27-28$ for a 3 month box times 4 times a year! No prescription needed if ordering from Canada or Australia ... itz a vial application ... not a pill!

I buy from an Australian place. My vet recommended it, cuz it is cheaper than what she charges.
Frontline Plus 1 to 23 Lbs (0 to 10 kg) small dog 6 months US$43.97

And I split the application between the two dogs.

And I used the generic heartguard from that site at $20 for six months.

They also carry revolution, but I don't know enough about the product. What do ya'all think of it? Is it liquid or pill?

Revolution for small Dogs 5.1-10kg (11-22lbs) 6 month pack US$62.82 Revolution for toy dogs 2.6-5kg (6-11lbs) 6 month pack US$58.89
Revolution for pups & kittens 0-2.5kg (0-5.5lbs) 3 month pack US$28.66

I buy my Frontline Plus at the feed store. It's like $35.00 for the four tubes. I may check into the pet megastore site previously posted.
