I've never used Advantix and don't know anything about it.
I have used Frontline Plus for years with great success. Frontline Plus does kill ticks, regular Frontline does not. I believe it's the most widely used product on the market. If you decide to use Frontline Plus, you should know that the smallest dose available is for dogs UP TO 22 pounds. Since Sadie is much smaller than that, I'd suggest you apply only 1/3 to 1/2 of the applicator contents each treatment. Refrigerate what's left and use it on her next treatment. This is more economical and helps prevent giving too much at once. My vet recommended this method years ago and I've since noticed many YT'rs do the same thing.
