Flea and Tick Control – Spring Special

Spring is around the corner and that means it is time for all of us pet owners to start thinking about the

best flea and tick control plan for our pets. The best way to control fleas and ticks is through oral or spot

on treatments. Spot on treatments are more popular because they are easy to administer, are generally

well tolerated by pets and offer

protection against fleas and ticks for up

to 30 days.

Some of the top spot on products for flea

and tick control are like Frontline Plus,

K9Advantix, Advantage, K9Advantix II and

Advantage II. While they are all good

products, the most effective amongst

them are Frontline Plus, K9Advantix II

and Advantage II as they have an

additional ingredient, an Insect Growth

Regulator (IGR), which stops the

development of a new generation of

fleas.

We recommend that you do your research and consult your vet before selecting a flea and tick control

product for your pet. Our vet has advised us to use Frontline Plus as he feels that this is the most

effective dog flea treatment available today. It is an expensive product, however keep in mind that it is

easier and less expensive to control flea and ticks than to treat a flea and tick infestation. Moreover,

there are several websites as well as pet stores that have regular sales and special offers during which

cheap frontline plus for dogs can be purchased.

Remember, a healthy pet is a happy pet so whatever you do, ensure that your pet is protected from

fleas and ticks this spring!
