How often do you bathe her? While these flea preventatives are water-resistant, they will lose their effects with each bath. I know when I put Lacy's preventative on, at first it works great but it never lasts a whole month because I bathe her every week. i was reapplying every three weeks this summer and that seemed to help. Also, make sure you put the preventative on like the day after you bathe and wait as long as you can before bathing again (so I bath Lacy, put the preventative on the next day, and the 6 days later bathe her again since I bathe every week). You can use a capstar pill if you see fleas later on in the month. It kills fleas within 30 minutes and lasts for 24 hours.
