| I have been using Frontline Plus (which is how I voted in the poll) but I HATE IT! It totally sucks. It is making his hair change color on his back and it's growing in all thick and black. Ugh, I am going to change brands as of this month, but I haven't decided whether to switch to Advantix or Sentinel? Which one combines the heartworm treatment?

Someone had said that they have similar products at Petsmart, but I have never tried them. (Did you pull the tick out? If so, and there is a bump, you need to make sure that the head of the tick is not still embedded in your dogs skin.) Take care, Missy | |

| I use eucalyptus oil mixed into the shampoo to wash my pup with and some oil mixed with water to spray his bedding and the whole house. It leaves everything smelling fresh and clean.

| I use this: http://missyt.shopshurepets.com/Prod...d=7801&cid=103. It is called Paramount Lemon Sunscreen/Bug Spray. I sell this, so that is how I found it. I have found that one bottle lasts the entire summer and I used it for my Mastiff and 2 toy poodles. Someone had said that they have similar products at Petsmart, but I have never tried them.

| This may be a stupid question, but where do you get these items???? I'm still having a problem with fleas & am now scared of Frontline, so I'm looking for something else to use.

| Well, I found rosemary oil @ Walgreens that also has lavender oil in it. I don't know if this is what i need or not, but at this point I don't think it can hurt. It's actually for hair/scalp. People, of course, but I think it'll be ok. Guess I'll try it out & see if it works.
