Sentinel is just Interceptor with Program. It is a good drug. The Program (for fleas) just makes it so they can't reproduce though. It doesn't kill them. |
Thank you. The vet told my dh that lepto is very common in our area. I didn't research it, b/c I just assumed that the cons outweighed the pros. Guess I better research it a bit more. She also said the we could catch it also.
Sentinel sounds ok. I'm just so leary of any drugs going into my baby.
But since she's outside alot & we live in the good 'ol south which is horrible for fleas, she will need something. Oh, decisions...
