| Does anyone use Revolution? Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on these types of medicines. Delilah gets the Revolution for puppies/kittens once a month and the day I use it on her she seems to not feel very good. I just wonder if the benefits out weight the bad. Any thoughts? Anything better to use? |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I use Revolution on all 3 of mine. I use about 3/4 of the tube just to not overdo it. I have not had any problems, but I think I recall some people on here having some issues.

| My parents use Revolution on their yorkie. He had an allergic reaction to a flea product they bought at Petsmart called Biospot and found that this one is okay for him so they've been sticking with it.

| We use Revolution on our two and haven't had any problems with it. I'm sorry you've had a problem with it.

| I've used Revolution twice on Bitsy and she hasn't had a problem with it. She had her first dose at 9 weeks (Sept 1st), then again at 13 weeks (Oct 1st) and she hasn't had a problem with it. |

| Well Delilah hasn't really had problems, just kinda acts a bit droopy the day I use it. I was just thinking about long term use....you know how delicate our babies are. Just wondered if long term use could have bad effects on their liver. Guess I am wondering if there is something out there that is not so strong. Also, seems that the flea killing aspect does not quite last from dose to dose.

| We've had terrific success with Revolution. I order from vetshoponline for the lowest price and my last order was free shipping too. |

| I use it on all four of mine with no problems. So far it works for us, it takes care of the fleas and ticks.

| We use it also and have had no problems at all, besides them going crazy after I put it on They are so silly! But we live in south FL and have never had ONE flea, so that's saying something. I like that it's all in one, and we don't have to try to get a heartworm med into them as well. I wish that we could go all organic and use the natural remedies that some on here have had great success with. I am not chancing an infestation because where we live it's horrible if one flea makes it into the house or onto your baby

| I don't use Revolution. Right now I am using Interceptor for heartworm and nothing for fleas but I do have Frontline here just in case. I have heard good things about Revolution. If your dog acts strange when you give it, I wouldn't give it.

| I used Revolution on Murfee for 3 and 1/2 years and had no problems and didn't have any flea problems. When we moved to the country about 6 months ago my vet changed him to Frontline plus because she said it covered more buggies. Physically he has had no problems but we do have fleas. I am going to switch back to Revolution. |
