Pet Care - Fleas

     Spring weather and holidays provide special concerns for the pet owner. Before these times are here you need to take certain precautions to make sure your pets don't suffer.

   Whew! Fleas hate the heat and intense sunlight as much as we do. Why they practically wilt this time of year. Which means your pet will get a small break. But don't stop your preventative flea control because they'll be back with a vengeance in the mild Fall. (Of course, now you have the ticks to contend with. Ugh!) We recommend that you keep using one of the monthly flea control products for your pet.

   PROGRAM is a safe oral medication that sterilizes the flea and breaks the flea life cycle - no more babies, no more adults.

   ADVANTAGE and FRONTLINE are applied to the skin on the back of the pet and work by killing and repelling the flea. Right now you may want to think about using Frontline, which is the only one of the monthly treatments just mentioned that is also labeled for killing ticks.

   For continuous flea control, some people find that giving their pet the PROGRAM all year long and then adding either ADVANTAGE or FRONTLINE during the worst flea seasons, takes care of their problems. PROGRAM now also comes in a single tablet combined with a monthly heartworm preventative; it's called SENTINEL.

   The newest flea and heartworm combination drug is REVOLUTION. This is a topical product for dogs and cats that is applied to the skin once a month. This is a totally new route for heartworm protection. It's easy and it's effective. It also controls hookworms and roundworms in cats, as well as ear mites and mange mites. Ask us for more complete information about Revolution.

   Don't forget to treat the house (use a product with an insect growth regulator - IGR - to kill the immature stages for long periods of time), the yard (pay close attention to spraying the shady areas of your yard for fleas (spray for ticks now too); and even the car. Still confused? Call us, that's what we're here for!
