| Frontline problems? We have been using Frontline plus, but Mr. Skip has fleas all of the sudden. We searched the internet and have seen a lot of people saying Frontline isn't working any more. Anyone have any info or input? |

| I've heard that in some areas, fleas are building up immunity to Frontline. However, it's always worked well for us - no fleas or ticks. We use Frontline Plus every month, and will continue to do so as long as it works for us. If it's not working for you, I'd ask your vet for a recommendation.

| This year has been bad. I use k9 advantix and have seen fleas on my strictly indoor dog.

| my vet told me back in 2005 immunity does develop and you have to change brands.

| Levi was on Frontline when he got Lymes disease. Since then we have used advantix and both dogs have done well on it.
