In Los Angeles, my dogs never had fleas and we didn't have heartworm, so I didn't have them on any of the medications. However, here I have to keep them on Sentinel monthly. So far, with the meds, I am not seeing fleas but I also picked up all the carpeting in the house and put in wood floors. I guess the answer is, if they are on the meds they will be okay. Hope this helps.

Thanks, Yes our dog is on meds. She is fine up north but bad here even with meds. We had to take her to Vet to get shot for allergies, just horrible where we are at. She does not have fleas, if she gets them on her they die right away with the meds.
The vet also told us that down here you could need to change the flea med every few years. Also that some allergies come from flea bites.
Thanks for your info - glad to hear we are not the only ones.
Just came back from a visit (again) to TV. Still concerned of what is going on with the family and bond law suite thing.
