What is the best way to prevent flea and tick problems?
A. For dogs, we recommend a topical flea and tick prevention -either Frontline or Advantix. These are pre-packaged oils that are applied between your dogs shoulder blades once a month. If ticks are a concern in your area, you may need to consider using a tick collar as well as a topical prevention. For this, we recommend Preventix collars. For cats, we recommend using a topical product as well – either Frontline or Advantage. As above, this is also applied between the shoulder blades once monthly.
