I don't treat Gracie for ticks because we don't go in the infested areas. I use Advantage II and I have used that brand for years without any problem.
There is a thing called Diatomaceous Earth that is an all natural product. It's a very interesting product in that it can be given internally and it works externally as well. It is a powder so you have to be careful it is not inhaled just like any other powder. I have heard that it is great for treating your house and yard for bugs of all kinds. People even take it internally but I'm not sure why. You can read up on it on the internet. As an external product you have to apply it to your pet every couple days. It is also fairly inexpensive. |
