Goin' to the country I am taking Monkey and Maddie with me for a visit to Alabama! Monkey has already been once before. He loved it. There's just one problem...fleas! I brought him back to L.A. with tons of fleas! My grandmother lives in the deep country. I want to let the babies play, but I also want to protect them from fleas and ticks. Is it just as simple as starting them on a flea control now before they even go? I've never had to use any sort of flea control with them. |
Have you used Frontline or Advantage before? You need a prescription from the vet, but it works pretty well. To be super safe, you may want to check for fleas every night when they come in. Monkey and Maddie should have a lot of fun at your grandma's! :) |
I know, they're going to have tons of fun! I will definitely have a flea comb handy at all times ;) |
Revolution Have you tried this? I have had my boys on it since they were 12 weeks old and 2.5 pounds. It not only protects against fleas, but ticks, mites, mange and heatworm all in one dose and is a little less in cost than Frontline or Advantage. Never seen a flea or anything else on my boys. Also use it on my 20 pound Siamese cat who is outside most of the time, never a flea. It is great! |
My mom lives in Alabama and she says the mosquitos are horrible there this year. Since they can cause heartworms, if your babies are going to be outside playing alot you might want to ask your vet about preventative for them too. Have fun in the country! |
