They have been besieged by fleas and the topical stuffs a waste of money as it isn't working at all. My vet wants to try comfortis....my gut tells me NO. I don't know what to try next. I get my yard/house sprayed, bathe them with a special shampoo coz they have skin issues and dawn irritates them something fierce, have and continue to get all bedding washed. Still the lil buggers persist! So...I realize there is a lot of issues at once so Ill narrow it down;
1. how do I prevent tummy issues all together (they are on Purina one, which has worked for over 2 years)
2. how do I get rid of the pests without harming my fur babies?
Any suggestions welcome.
We never had any luck with yard sprays, but have used flea and tick granules with great success. No harm has come to my furbies, either. Have used it for years. Good luck.
