I think Advantix is for fleas and ticks. You can get it on Ebay where it is cheaper than at a vet. Baths, collars, sprays, etc., have never worked for my animals. With Advantage, you dont have to worry about your house. Treat the dog, and any fleas living in the house will die, when they come in contact with your dog. The directions are for once a month treatment, but I have found I only need one application on them through flea season. The only thing I have found to work for fleas is Advantage.

Shellgard has soaps, shampoos and anti-flea powder. I let soap and shampoo soak through the hair for a few minutes, then use a fine-toothed comb to removes les animales. If there are really plenty of ticks, I bathe my dog 2x a week, then really follow up with anti-flea powder. In the farms they use a chemical (?) called Sevin as powder, letting it stay on the dog to kill fleas. Some fleas and ticks have to be removed manually.

Check the Internet for front line that is the product you want to get if you can't find it my bro in law use to use yeast and water and bath the dogs in that, as they lived in jersey 10 aches of land and tons of deer ticks, it worked believe it or not. I suggest that only if you can not get the front line over the Internet. Good luck and I hope your baby is OK.

You can get it on line too. BUT I thought my doxie had fleas and turned out to be allergies. I was bathing him too much. Poor thing. I brush him everyday now and use Hertz Oatmeal shampoo for dogs. be sure to make sure it is fleas and not scratching from an allergy.
