Med Dogs
Are the over-the-counter flea meds for dogs any good?
I've been using Frontline on my two dogs for years but with prices escalating on everything in this world I'm trying to resort to much cheaper things to save money and was wondering if the over the counter flea meds really worked on dogs/cats? I don't want it to hurt them or make them sick in any way. Anyone use them?
I have used over the counter wormers and flea treatment in the past, but found both not to work as effectively as the ones from the vet.
With flea treatments I could never get rid of the little buggers, and with wormers, the worms would be back in no time.
I don't think they will harm your dog, but in the long run I found them more expensive, as you have to keep re treating.
With Frontline I have only to repeat the treatment every 6 months and my two Labs stay free of fleas.
I know they recommend reapplying every 1-2 months but I have found this unnecessary, every 6 months works fine for my two, and I buy a 6 pack which works out a bit cheaper than the small packs.
