And anything that goes on their backs is a waste of money since bathing literally removes it. We also spray our immediate yard. My Yorkie, Chihuahua and puppies never go outside so they have to be picking up the fleas on the inside. I'm guessing my indoor/outdoor dogs are bringing them in. It's not like my house is infested but even 1 flea grosses me out.

Just part of living in Texas I guess???
Wouldn't do Sentry...

Advantage and Trifexis are adulticides only. Not going to do anything to stop the life cycle. Frontline Plus does, but there are reports of lack of effect in some areas.

How about Sentinel and Advantage or Frontline? Advantix 2? Although with Advantix 2 I wouldn't use it unless you have ticks. The permethrin in is isn't the greatest for pups.
