so what to do??????
i hope everything works out for you.

Lisa, I will never let a vet talk me into flea medicine again. Silk had fleas (all mine have had fleas this summer) and was treated with K-9 Advantage when the others were. He first recommended Advantage but becausee wwe also have had ticks he changed it to the other. I asked over and over about the danger. he knew she was pregnant. The time it was applied was about the time the puppies were developing. her little boy was horribly deformed but had a heartbeat right up until she went into labor. I would just about bet money it was the flea medicine.
