Flea medicine and heartworm med. on a puppy I have a 3 month old yorkie, 2 1/2 lbs. He has fleas and Ive just been bathing him in dawn dish soap to get rid of the fleas. My vet could not recommend a flea medicine because of his size. What does everyone else use? Ive tried nexgard on my other dogs who are 10 lbs and it works great. Also what heartworm medicine is the best to use on a puppy? My other yorkie had a bad reaction to heartworm medicine so she is not using any at this time. Is it ok to break up the nexgard into little pieces to give to my puppy? I think the smallest dose is for 10 lbs and over. |
You might want to look at capstar for the fleas but you also need to rid your environment like house of the fleas or they will just keep getting them. There is a nexguard for 4pounds to 10 pounds because my puppy is on it. Heart guard and interceptor are great heartworm meds. You need to try different ones with your other dog to because it would be rare that they were allergic to all of them. |
How big is your puppy that is on the nexguard? |
He is 8 pounds but started it when he was 4 pounds |
