| First time flea help! So chewy has fleas ( it really grosses me out! I went to the pet store and bought the tabs that work real quick to kill the ons that are alive. just wondering how often i would give those to him. It says u can do it at east once a day but should i do it everyday for the 6 days i have worth? When he first took the pill he stopped scratching completly and i literally could see 2 dead fleas that had fallen off when i picked him up, but he is itchy again? how long does one pill work? it tells me that they start working with in four hours but does not say if it only lasts that long. i need some advice!

| I'm not positive on that one....my new pup has fleas too or so I think. I look and look and can't see anything through all of the long black hair. But he keeps chasing his bottom and dragging it like it is really irritating him. So I went to the vet and got drontal....one dosage is supposed to get rid of them....the tape worm part anyway and they gave him a dose of frontline to get rid of the fleas if he has them. The drontal was $27 for 1/4 of a regular tablet....I asked them if the entire tablet cost $100 they said no. Total BS to me that they charge the same for a huge dog as they do for a 2 lb pup. Let me know what works for you I'd like to know for future reference.
