| Very Interesting Info. I just got back from the vet, Tayolr has an apparent allergic reaction to flea bites. I searched that girl all over and didn't find one flea or even flea dirt. SO the bumps I found I thought had to be from something else. Well don't cha know I found a flea on her, while I was waiting for the Dr to come. AHAHAHH... I guess it was flea bite afterall. Anyway, the information that I never heard before was, if your dog has a rash in the "underwear" area it is from flea's, even if you don't see them. They call it an Underwear rash because if a dog was to wear a pair of underwear that would be the area it would cover. A rash or bumbs anywhere else is from something else, like food or plants. Very Interesting huh? |

| Maggie has a severe flea bite allergy too and they can pick those little monsters up everywhere. The only thing that helps Maggie is Comfortis. All 4 of my babies are on Comfortis since August last year and we are really happy with it.... |

| My vet mentioned it but said it was very expensive? Can you only get it from a vet? |
