| K 9 advantix Our vet recommend using K9-Advantix for Moose. We just used it last summer When he was under 10 lbs. Now he is 14 lbs and I have to go up to the next weight box. Mimi is 8 lbs. and she would need the under 10 lbs.... Holy Cow that will be $123.00 plus tax. Someone told me to just buy the box for 11 to 20 lbs and split the tube between both of them, but put more on Moose than Mimi. Has any one done this? I am not sure if I feel comfortable doing this. I asked my Vets office today and they said they won't advise me on that. What do you all think??

| I would ask the vet first. I myself wouldn't do it. I just bought all the flea meds for my 6 and luckily my vet was having a good deal on them. I still spent over $400 for the year for them, and that's excluding the smallest one as she won't be out in the yard playing with the others |

| Are you having a problem with ticks? If not, why not use regular Advantage? Otherwise you could use Frontline and evidently there is spray available that not many people know about. It's a big bottle and you use so many squirts for their weight. Ladymom gets it I think.

I did ask my vet tech, and she said they won't advise me whether to do that or not!

| Well, actually 5. I have a german shepherd and golden retriever(and the meds are more expensive for them), then 4 inside dogs, but, the smallest one(my biewer) is only 9 mos. and 2 lbs. I won't put anything on her yet. I had given her sentinel twice. The first time she got acting strange and the 2nd time, as soon as she had it she threw up all over |
