FLEAS... geez louise

I want to know if it is safe to apply Frontline Plus on the same day that I gave them a Capstar tablet????? I want to try and get rid of everything at once.. I don't know if they all have fleas but I know that one of the cats has them for sure, so I am assuming that they all have them. They have all been on Frontline Plus monthly..

I don't give them on the same day..

I think it's better to space them out, although most vets would say that isn't necessary. My rationalization is that I am giving my dog chemicals. It makes more sense to me to give them a week or two apart to let them adjust and absorb individually.

I'm trying to cut way back on my Frontline use. I haven't put it on my dogs in two months and we are still flea free. I do give Interceptor monthly though.

How would you use it outdoors if the animals go out there and sometimes eat the grass? Do you put it around the edges?

You can also use

Seven 5 or Sevin 10 powder outdoors. It won't hurt the animals either and is very effective:-) Best of luck!

Thanks so much Amy,

I am treating the house with Ortho Home Defense.. It says it kills fleas and is safe around animals. Thanks again.

It is safe.

If one has fleas, they all have them. Sadly that is the way it goes!! Sounds like you might want to treat your house as well. Once inside they can get everywhere in a big hurry. I hate fleas worse than any thing else!!

Thanks for the advice.

I use Heartguard Plus for heartworm. Is Interceptor a better and safer product??? I've never used it. I'm always so nervous about giving these poisons to my babies.
