 Grrr... TICKS!  Jackson has had TWO ticks on him so far in the last 2 1/2 weeks. He is on  Frontline Plus but is due for this month as of tomorrow. I give the flea & tick on the 15th of every month. Obviously, Frontline doesn't seem to be working well with us. I do have one more tube/applicator left for Frontline and am not sure if I should just use it and see if it continues to happen this month or just purchase something new. I'm considering k9 advantix. He is on Iverhart Plus for heartworm, which I give him on the 1st of every month. Is there ANY thing you would suggest that I can buy without a prescription? Jackson is 7 months old and weighs a little over 13 pounds. He's never had any sort of reaction to the Frontline or anything.  |  
 
 do you use the whole tube of frontline or do you split it in half?  frontline does not repel ticks. it kills them but doesn't keep them from jumping on.  |

 Thanks for the info - didn't know this about Frontline! Is there any medicine that is better at repelling them? They're such gross little things.  |

 i agree, i hate bugs so much. you should see me at the grooming shop when i find one. i squeal and make someone else remove them LOL i think i must overcome this fear :rolleyes: anyhoo, i think advantix repels ticks fleas, and mosquitoes. you can try this as well. i'd ONLY get these products from your vet tho because there have been counterfeit products sold at petstores. Also, if something does happen to your pet from these medications the pharm company will not do anything about it unless it was purchased from a veterinarian.  |  
 
 good info thanks,  we just found a tick tonite, actually duke found it and just stared at it until i went to look at it. it wasn't on him which explains why because he is on frontline plus.  |
