Fleas & ticks We just got Frontline for our little boy for preventive purposes and literally the next day after applying it he got a tick! :-( Anyone has suggestions as far as what is better? Frontline or K-9 Advantix? We are thinking if we should switch to K-9 instead. |
Please be really careful using any stuff on a little dog. I am hearing that the Frontline doesn't work for some dogs. I am still looking for the safest stuff to use on my guys. I hate using any of these poisons. Little dogs are very sensitive. Did you read the post where a girl's dog died using Triflexis? That scares me. Research before using. Today I had to tell a couple not to buy that Hartz or Sergeants stuff at Walmart. Really bad. Why do they sell this stuff that makes dogs sick? I am very cautious with my precious Yorkies. |
Frontline absolutely does not work for ticks where I live so I use Advantix but you will have to wait a month before you can try the Advantix. |
I live in deer tick land and for 13 years frontline has worked. Revolution doesn't cover the deer tick and advantix just is too much in my opinion. Good luck! |

We use K9 Advantix as needed. Only about 3x a year in the warmer months. Seems to be all we need. Ticks can be pretty crazy here! But last year, I gave him one dose of Advantix in June and we never saw anymore ticks all summer so I never applied anymore. And he's outside all the time! |
