Is this real? What precautions should we be taking with our animals.  |
I live in LI NY and we had a tick and flea crazy summer.I alway use frontline on my cat Izzy. she is 14 years old and has had no problem with it.I on the other hand, got lymes from a tick from my back yard which is nicely landscaped, not woody at all. Doc told me other critters bring them into your yard, so you can not escape them. Your animals can bring fleas and ticks into your home where the can live for a long time before they find a new meal,which could be you. Beleive me, you dont want to come down with lymes, is is not fun. If you dont mind taking a chance that you might get infected by lymes, dont put anything on your dog or cat.
