For the past few years we have used Ortho Max on our yard and Frontline Plus on our pets. We use Advantage on our cat. For the past few months we've had fleas anyway so when I was at the vet this week I asked them their opinion. They said the fleas in our area have built up a resistance to the products we use. As far as I know Frontline is the only flea product considered "safe" for pregnant and nursing dogs.
What products do you guys use?
I'm thinking of Diatomaceous Earth and Comfortis but that still doesn't answer the problem of pregnant and nursing dogs. Any opinions?
