Sydney B asked:

I have three dogs, a chocolate lab, a rhodesian ridgeback, and an english pointer. All of them intch constantly and nibble at their fur a couple times a day. They are all on the K9 Advantix, which is supposed to be the best flea and tick medication. I haven’t seen one flea, and I check their fur right where they itch everytime they itch. I also have not seen any “flea dirt”. So my question is do my dogs have fleas? Or are they just itchy creatures?

have any of you tried giving your dog garlic?
did it work?

if it does work.. can’t you just blend the garlic up with some water and then just spray it on their coat?

krm305 asked:


Is there anything out there that will take care of my dog’s fleas and ticks? Please don’t tell me frontline or advantage, they are so expensive it’s crazy I would have to pay $145 for one years worth. That’s crazy to have to pay that much money. Anyways, is there an alternative that someone out there knows about that costs much less? Thank you very much…

Is there a problem with fleas or ticks in the central California region; places like Monterey, Carmel, Salinas, etc? Would a dog need some kind of preventative, like Advantage or Frontline? Not all parts of the USA have noticeable flea and tick problems, so please don’t assume that “fleas live everywhere”. Thank you.

dog fleas ticks
? pandaheart ? asked:


My dog scratches herself a lot which is relatively normal but she also does the little grooming thing when she bites her fur to clean it. She has been doing a lot of both and they’re both normal but i’ve heard that when they do the biting and scratching thing they might also have fleas or ticks. how do i know the difference? also i put repellent on her every month but im not sure if i did it exactly right. how do i know if my doggy has fleas or ticks or if shes just grooming herself as usual?
the repellent is from the vet: k9 advantix

My dog has ticks and fleas and I was told I need to buy a tick/flea product which I did(k9 advantix, I already tried frontline and advantage) and also I have to use a defogger in my house, what is the best brand that will kill the ticks and fleas without being harmful to my malti-pom(maltese-pomeranian- 7-8 lbs).

Doi Doi asked:


I’ve tried Advantage, spray my house at least once a week, have sprayed the yard several times and put out granules, bathe my dog with flea and tick shampoo, she has a flea collar, and she still gets fleas within a couple of days. This is getting ridiculous. What else should I be doing? Should I just call a professional to come spray and see if that helps? Or is she just going to have to live with fthe fleas?

I remember my father losing his Black Lab to heartworm, it was heartbreaking. I would like to protect my husky, especially during the summer months when I have to put her outside. Thank you in advance for your advice.
