| Advantix and Tick Collar - Fall is here! Hello - Quick Question - since we are almost into October, I am wondering when, if at all, can cease the Advantix and the Tick Collar. I had my baby get a shot to protect him from Lyme as well, only b/c I live in an area that has a vast amount of deer ticks. So, with that said, when could i discontinue the collar and the tick treatment? Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thank you very much! Kellie Oscar's mommy |

| My 3 yorkies are on Advantix all year long. I did ask the vet if I could stop in Nov. - Jan, and he did not recommend it. He said the best protection is to keep them on it all year. I must say, I have never seen a flea or tick on any of my babies. |
