I do agree. I don't really like using K9 Advantix on Jackson but it's the only thing that seems to work around here. Last summer, on Frontline Plus, he got sooo many ticks while on it, and actually got Lyme disease. On the K9Advantix, there have been none to my knowledge. It's never caused a reaction in him but I still don't feel *totally* comfortable using it, but sort of have no choice. Ticks are really heavy in Maryland and we live on farmland, with 90 acres behind us, where deer are ALL the time! I'm looking into other options currently, might TRY the Frontline again and see if it works better this summer.
