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.
Same thing happened with Levi....As Brit knows, we were using frontline as well when Levi came down with Lyme disease. I think it depends on where you live, I know we have alot of it on Cape Cod But the Advantix seems to work the best for Levi and I just started Lily on it also. Would love to be able to use nothing....but I know nothing else I have tried do it for the ticks.
