| Thanks for posting it! I'm glad that I don't use those products any more... they are just too dangerous for our little ones. |

| your welcome, I have never use frontline plus or anything else on my two yorkies, but we do use it on the labs outside, but they stay in water during the summer and I have been doing it every other month instead of once a month. It's always something it seems these days.

YT Addict | I have to use frontline on my baby. The area in which I live is heavily populated with fleas and ticks.

YT Addict | I know. And when you hear things like this you feel guilty and even scared because you are using it it... but really what can you do? None of the natural stuff works for me. So, to be safer I only use half a tube of frontline on Emmett... It makes me feel safer at least.
