If you treat your dogs with Advantage, the pests on the property
should dwindle. It has worked for me well.


Revolution is what was recommended by my vet, however, I just learned yesterday
that it only kills one species of tick (deer ticks). The other will quite
happily feast away. It's gross, but it has become Sunday ritual to have each of
my three dogs lay on the front porch and pull off the multitude of ticks. The
vet said to not switch to advantage because I would lose the protection from
heartworm and ear mites.

Yesterday, I pulled at least 10 off my one 20 lb baby alone.

*Sigh* I don't want to excommunicate them, but the cats are picking them up too
and leaving them around the house.

I'm at a loss...........

Just my 2 cents.........
