Best Flea and Tick Medication
587452
We have tried other flea and tick medications, but we always come back to Advantix II.  It works, plain and simple!!!

I've use Frontline plus and the advantix II, the advantix II works better but neither are 100%. I use natural stuff like vinegar, apple cider during baths, and natural repellant like this below which i also left a review on which works better than any of these over the counter meds. However sometimes even with all the precautions I take I will find a tick and recently fleas on my pups after i took them to a new park so this stuff seems to help in addition to other natural remedies.

This is the only brand of fleas and tick preventative that I will buy for my dog. For some reason in my area, the midwest, other brands like frontline and k9 advantage do not work.

Of course its good, its Advantix. My pyr husky mix loves the tall grass and has the double coat that fleas love, yet this keeps the fleas off and kills the ticks that manage to get through his thick fur. I have bought this for a long time and am glad to have found the six pack on here. Wally world only have the 4 pack (which is only $4 cheaper and has 2 months less uses!)

I can't say enough good about this flea medicine. We have two Labrador Retrievers that are outside playing, sometimes for an hour, but live as part of the family in the house. It works so well that we have never seen a live flea or tick on our dogs. We do use it all the time though and not just when they get fleas. Really does work if you use it as preventive medicine. Wouldn't think of using anything else after trying one that our vet recommended.

we used to use frontline but it isn't effective during the summer months when fleas are at their worst for us.  bayer advantage is the next best product after prescription flea medicine.

For my sensitive dogs this is all I use.  I tried others and my dogs skin would be so tender they didn't want to be touched for days.  I knew something was wrong ...but I live in a tick,flea area of woodland so I needed to find something that would work well. This is the one for my 2 dogs....have had tick& flea free dogs foe 3 years.

Works like a charm.  Keeps ticks off you.  No other product is as good.  Highly recommend

We WERE having a huge tick problem. We live in Florida with 3 large dogs. We use revolution for fleas but it's unrealistic to treat the yard (3 acres) for ticks. The Preventic collars have been on for about a month now. I have only seen 2 ticks so far & that was only on top of the fur.  I highly recommend this product!!! (We did try lots of sprays, home remedies, etc. before the collars)

We have used Frontline for all three sizes of dogs for many years through three of generations of dogs.  We have never had a problem with fleas or ticks and the dogs have not had an adverse reaction to the treatment.  Good stuff Maynard.

This stuff has been 100% effective for me (used effectively 4 times now). I keep it in the medicine cabinet. Ticks can't back themselves out quickly enough after a couple of drops. I prefer using this versus any method that can crush a tick or leave the head embedded. I have a cat, so permethrin is not a good option for me. Funny, no matter how well you do a tick check, there will still be one that manages to sneak in and embed itself. Just one or two drops seems to be enough to get them to back themselves out.

I've used NaturVet Herbal Flea Powder for several years now and I think it's the best stuff out there. It smells wonderful and keeps the fleas from taking over.

I have been using Frontline and Frontline Plus on my dogs for years.  They have always remained free of fleas 100% of the time.  Only 1 or 2 times a season will I find a tick.

I use a lot of Frontline! I use it on my dogs, cats and even on my goats to prevent them from getting goat lice and ticks. I really wish the price would come down though. It does get very expensive when you have a lot of critters.

Works great for fleas. I have seen no fleas on my dogs whatsoever. My goats are fiber goats and if they get infested with lice, it ruins their fiber, causing flakiness on their skin. Thankfully, through research, I discovered this works on goats as well. It is my go to flea and tick remedy.

If you are only dealing with flea, BioSpot works wonderfully! When I moved to South Carolina, my pup immediately got infested with fleas, and after doing some research, I decided to try BioSpot. It worked wonders in a very short period of time, and I never had a flea problem again in South Carolina, and most other bugs didn't bother her either. However, we moved again to a high tick-population area in Virginia, and BioSpot didn't work quite as well for ticks. While my dog still doesn't have fleas, she has a tick issue for sure. For example, in the last four days, I picked 16 ticks off the poor little dog. While most of these ticks were dead when I got them off, they had still bit her and embedded in her skin, which isn't good considering the bacteria many of them carry. I plan on trying K9 Advantix now to try to repel ticks (instead of just kill them after they hang on to my dog for a while).

Bottom line: If you just need to get rid of fleas and keep general nuisance bugs away, BioSpot works really well and is cost effective. However, if you have a tick problem, I suggest trying K9 Advantix or Frontline as they seem to work better for those pest.

This flea and tick product works great. We have used many different products from chemicals to natural concoctions, but I like this one the best. If my dogs develops a reaction to this flea collar I can just take it off. Other flea medication they ingest is dangerous if they have a reaction once they have ingested it.  I have not had any reactions from my dogs from this collar. However I would make it better to keep on my outside dogs. It is too easy for the dog to pull off. It should be like a collar, loose but not detachable.

We recently moved to a farm and our outdoor cat kept coming home with ticks, even though we were treating him with another brand of flea/tick topical medicine. We switched to this and have had no problems since.
