Flea problem in The Villages
We moved to TV 5 months ago. We continued to use Frontline Plus for fleas and ticks. However, a few days ago we found fleas on BOTH our dogs and we had given one Frontline on Oct. 1st and the other one on Oct. 9th. We called our vet and were told Frontline Plus DOES NOT WORK in Florida and to give both dogs a bath to get any Frontline off. We already had a package of Heartgard Plus for the beagle so vet gave us "Comfortis" to use along with the Heartgard Plus for the fleas and ticks. The new snoodle we just adopted came with a 6 month supply of "Trifexis" which is for heartworm, fleas and ticks which vet said would work good in Florida but the adoption agency had given us a package of Frontline to use on her the first month
and then go to the Comfortis. If Frontline does not work here why would a Florida adoption agency give us Frontline? Needless to say we have been frantically washing everything in the house with Mule Team Borax which we read will kill fleas and eggs and we sprinkled it thruout home on carpets and left on overnight and vacuumed up this morning. What a nightmare. Has anyone else heard Frontline does not work here?
