Thanks Marsha, I'm thinking of using half the "up to 22 lb" on him. Do you think that will be enough to work and still not be too much for him? He weighs 3.6 lbs. Should I use less. I'll have to figure out how to store whats left until next time. Do you do yours every month? I have read that frontline used to say it lasted 3 months and now they recommend one and they haven't changed anything. Bear had a slight reaction to his DHLPP shot and I have been extra over cautious since then (probably a little anal if the truth be known).
