I don't know if you can split Advantix. I have not used it. You could ask your vet. We tried Advantage once, a different product, and I ended up washing it off Teddy immediately. It must have been burning because he went crazy trying to scratch at it. |
Yeah I wonder if advantage is still a good product around here (Philadelphia) I have heard that fleas are becoming resistant to Frontline around here. I decided to go with advantix. I put it on him today. Bought the correct amount. I couldn't justify cutting corners financially with something that I wasn't sure how he'd react to yet. Problem though.... I put it on him but it seems to have gotten more on one side of his back than the other. Is this still OK? |
I've been wondering about this too. We live in apartments and the grass here seems to have fleas. :( I've been picking them out every day after taking him out to potty but I need something to help me keep them off him. Has anyone ever purchased the shampoo bars on etsy that say they are flea repellent? |

As far as it being on one side more than the other, its fine, the skin absorbs the oil into the body either way. |

Something natural that works for me I buy 4oz of clove oil. I put 1oz in a spray bottle and add 8 oz water put it on there body and fleas are dead. Nags and Mosquitos stay away too. Repeat 2 times a week. I even put it on me here in Florida too much Mosquitos. I love the smell too. I discovered this from my breeder as to my princess is allergic to frontline. |

flea busters for the house is the best, good for a year |
I figured I would make a list: Sentinel only does fleas and worms like heart worm and tape worm, hook worm, round worm Comfortis for fleas only Revolution protects against heartworm, fleas, American Dog ticks, ear mites, and Sarcoptic mange mites when used as directed. K9 Advantix II kills flea and ticks including deer Advantage is flea and lice Advantage II for fleas Capstar for fleas Frontline Plus flea and ticks including deer ticks Vectra is fleas only Vectra D is for fleas and ticks including deer ticks I hope this helps everyone out |
I have friends that use Vectra D. . . .it kills and Repels and kills fleas, ticks including deer ticks, mosquitoes, biting and sand flies, lice and mites (excluding mange mites). They have used all the rest and will never go back This is the site Vectra This is the product information http://www.vectrapet.com/Home/About-...ct-Information |
what about parastar that is what lola used last year and she had no reaction to it, which is always a concern but hardly anyone on YT mentions is, do you think it is any good |
the reviews on Vectra D don't seem to good, I also looked up Parastar, they were a little better but still not great, I bet it is the same with many of the other, ugggggh I hate making this decision, I agonize over it every year and I am on the way to the vet, think I will stick with Parastar but it bothers me that no one talks about it. I also give Lola the chewable heart guard which my vet does not seem to want to use anymore, but I don't want to switch since I have had good luck and this way I do heart worm on the first and flea and tick on the 15th Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Vectra 3D Flea Tick Mosquito Topical Treatment, Dogs 56-95 lbs (6 Doses) |
