My Alyssa has terrible allergies. We spent much money and time at the vets. She scratched constantly. We were on Frontline Plus and Interceptor.
I put on magnifying glasses and inspected her for fleas. I could not find any. She was miserable and whined and scratched and bit her skiin until she was removing spots of her fur. Finally I changed her food to a non corn and wheat food. I did the same with her treats. Every month when I would put on Frontline Plus she would be miserable and whine and cry. I felt like I was hurting her. I stopped using anything. Then we went back to the vet for our rabies shot and I discussed the problem. She suggested Comfortis. Alyssa loved the tablet which is beef flavored.I only got l tablet to see how she did on it. It has worked wonderfully. No more scratching or whining or biting her fur. It is time to go back and buy a 6 months supply. The vet did say if she should get fleas that we could use a capstar and get rid of them. So far no fleas and no itching and no uncomfort. We are on Interceptor for heartworm. I have one dog on Comfortis and two on Sentinel. They all get Interceptor. I have been pleased. It is so sad to have a furbaby suffering from the application of flea prevention and not be able to do something to help. Comfortis has worked wonders for Alyssa.
