| flea medication Hi!!! My baby Beau is 7 months old. I found a flea today but it was not on him when I found it. I am worried that it was on him at one point. I just purchased K9 Advantix 2 for small breeds 4-10 pounds. Beau is over 6 pounds. Has anyone ever tried this product and if so, what are your opinions about it? My husband and I just want to make sure our boy will be okay with this treatment!! |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I don't use flea treatment in AZ, but wanted to bump this for you so you get a response. Anyone tried this?

| I use Advantix II for Bentley and my Boxer. Advantix II is for both fleas and ticks and since using it I haven't found one tick or flea. That is my experience with it. Hope it works for you, too!

| I use nexguard but did use Advantix but it made my dog act weird so when I found out about nexguard I switched right away and have had no issues.

| You don't need to use Advantix II unless you also want to cover for ticks. You could just use Sentinel and cover intestinal parasites plus fleas. Advantix is not a product I would use for my dogs. We have ticks here and although I've used Frontline for many years, I am switching to a tick collar that I can use with Sentinel.
