Re: [RC] Ticks - Truman Prevatt

What the equine vet that was here and did the emergency treatment was it was probably a reaction to the chemical they use for ticks in Frontline. It seemed that the reaction to the Frontline caused him to be sensitive to Advantage also. Much like some people who develop an allergy to some sort of insect bite, or sting, some food or drug, etc. Each incident becomes progressively worse.

We use Frontline here too. Works great. I've used it on all kinds of dogs and cats and never a problem. Used advantage once on one dog and it didn't seem to work at all. ditto for the Sargent's and other knock off stuff.
Truman, I wonder if the problem you had with Frontline had something to do with using the advantage first? Makes me wonder. We got a sample of Advantage when we took our puppy to the vet for her first shots. Haven't used anything on her for several months, but it's time to do the Frontline thing here.
