Thanks guys!
Crystal, yep, I am putting it on his shoulder blades. It just always seems like SOOO much, lol.
I am just going to stick with the 11-20lb dose. Anyone know the difference between the Advantix and the Advantix II?

Jackson had Lymes last year. His symptom was limping on his back leg so he experienced joint pain. It was taken care of really easily with a 30 day antibiotic and 7 days of pain meds. He was back to himself within a day of meds, actually. I think I was lucky since I caught it so early. He tested negative for lymes this year thankfully and I have been keeping up with the flea/tick meds.
I'm probably going to order from entirelypets, or see what Petsmart's prices are like.
