I no longer use frontline or any flea/tick product on my dogs.
It is basically a pesticide your putting on them.
I wonder about cancer etc... in their future from it.
I grew up with 2 dogs one lived til she was 16 and the other 18.
We never used any pesticides on them.
My vet and I talked about it, and he agreed it's nasty stuff.
He said he only does an application to his own dogs if they get fleas.
My dogs don't typically stay outside real long~
Tessa did had a couple ticks last year, we just removed them.
If your area has deer ticks obviously it is probably necessary.
