| What brand of flea preventative/medication do you use? I'm jusr curious... I haven't used anything on Ellie in awhile. She doesn't really get fleas to often. I think I would go the Dawn dish soap route next time and hope to never use an actually preventative again. But for those who need to use them, what one do you use?

| I used Frontline for years, but it stopped working for me this past summer and I had a big problem with fleas. I switched to Advantix (not Advantage - not waterproof) and have stuck with it ever since. |

Therapy Dog Donating Member | We've been on the Revolution for puppies/kitties that treats fleas and heartworm and I love it....no reaction and not one flea..but then again I'm a freak about this so we get our yard treated too.

Someone I know used one of the flea products listed above once on her dog and the dog had an itching and restless reaction to it. The company said give her a bath in Dawn and put vitamin E on her.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | It's been months since I've used any flea preventative on Ruby. I did use Revolution and would go back to it, if this summer they start getting fleas.
