| Does anyone use Revolution? Does anyone use Revolution? I have been using Revolution on Bubba and Cricket. It's for both heartworm and fleas and ticks prevention. My sister recently went to her vet and he didn't carry it and did not recommend it. I don't know why and thought I would ask here. |

| I use to use Frontline and Heartgard, but my two little ones took forever to eat the Heartgard. Switched them all over to Revolution. My Vet sells both, prefers Frontline and Heartgard, but since I'm not around ticks and such, said Revolution would be fine.

| I use Sentinel because I wanted something in a pill form, as I think the topical stuff smells gross. It also does not cover ticks, just heartworm (and a few other worms) as well as flea eggs.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I started using Revolution on my 2 last week. I have been afraid to put anything on Cali for fear of a reaction. So I used one tube between the 2 of them even though it's for 5 lbs and under and Maya is 12 lbs. But I wantd to make sure neither of them had a reaction. Neither did. Next month I will use a tube on each.

| My vet doesn't recommend Revolution, either. When it first came out, he did carry it but noticed that dogs who were on it still had fleas/ticks. Since we have a year-round flea/tick problem and seriously prolific bugs here in Texas, he told me he doesn't think Revolution is strong enough for our dogs because it tries to do too much. I use K-9 Advantix and Sentinel. Julie |

| I have used Revolution for a long time on all mine and I like it just fine. I like the thought that it covers fleas, ticks, ear mites, heartworm and so on. I would guess it's up to each individule as to what they use. |

| I use Revolution on all on my 12 pack. Live in the South and have no trouble with ticks or fleas or worms. I have used Revolution for several years. I like it because it covers a multitude of parasites. Beats having to buy two different products to cover everything. As long as it works and the kidz are not allergic to it, guess I'll continue using it. See no reason to fix it if it's not broken.

| I use Revolution on Illy and it seems to be working just fine. My vet highly recommended it. I haven't had any problems with tics or fleas and she it outside a lot.

| I use revolution on my cats but use frontline plus on the dogs, my vet doesn't sell it for dogs, but sells it for cats I like to use revolution on the dogs, but a couple of people I know said they still got ticks & fleas..I guess it has to do with where you live, the weather, and your vet...
