With the weather getting hotter, I'm looking to get flea & tick prevention. I used the one Banfield gave me but I don't feel too comfortable using their product now. (I've bought different heartworm meds for various reasons) But I will say I didn't have any issues with First Shield product or at least none that I'm aware of.

Now.. my question is which would be better? Collar or those meds you apply on the body? What are the pros and cons? I'd appreciate any thoughts you guys can share. Thanks!!!!
