We're about 5 days shy of it being time to apply another round of Advantyx. I went ahead and put the flea stuff on her figuring that since she's had 3 baths since the last treatment it's probably wore off. I'm just wondering if applying another dose 5 days short of the month being up was ok? Any thoughts? |

no one wants to be in. Fleas SUCK. (no pun intended)
What I've learned in few months is even though the products
swear they work - I'm not too sure how true that is ....& holy cr*p - paying 100 bucks a pop for treatment SUCKS. I can't get over how expensive it is to combat fleas.
My girls have
never had them but when I moved into an apartment - we are now officially battling them too.
It seems they're really bad this year - The bites are a sure sign and the scratching is too - you don't have to actually see the 'flea dirt' (I never did) and only saw ONE flea also - but where there's one - there's always more.
Did I mention it sucks ?
Good luck.
