HI, I haven't been on in several years because Elmo has been doing well. We manage his liver problems with LD and milk thistle. Thank God this help. Problem is we moved to a new area where there are a lot of stary cats. Stay cats equals fleas. I have never had to use Frontline on him and now need to make a decision. Fleas or possible side effects from Frontline. The manufactures say it is safe for a dog with a liver problem. My Vet passed the buck and said if they say it is safe then ok. The vet also told me a rabies shot was safe and it ended up costing me $400. plus pain and suffering for my little boy. Any suggestions about the use of Frontline on dogs witih liver problelms would be appreciated.

Thanks, Elmosmom
