Up here in PA I use Ivermectin for heartworm and Frontline for flea/tick protection, but when we spent summer months in the French Quarter my dogs were plagued with fleas. The vet had us use Comfortis also which is a pill they take to control fleas internally. One of my borzoi was very allergic to just a bite from a flea and would be miserable from it. The addition of Comfortis helped a lot. I am glad there isn't that kind of flea problem in TV.
I know this thread isn't about this, but I can't get the words out of my mouth to tell my 'in person' friends and I can't keep the grief inside. We lost my almost 12 yr old Great Pyrenees Mellow today. My heart is breaking. I know you pet lovers here reading this know what it is to love and maybe lose a family member. Sorry I'm off topic.
