Thanks to you and Pam for the warning for the Comfortis. I had wondered how that product was doing. I have used K9Advantix on Princess, for years and no reactions and never any fleas or ticks. I only used it on Gigi once, but that was when I first got and during those weeks she also had a Booster Shot and was spayed. Then she started the seizures, so it is difficult to say as to which one actually started the seizures. So no more Booster shots and no more rabies shots either. Who is going to know as to whether you give a dog a rabies shot or not, unless the dog bites someone and then they check. To many of the Vets that did all that research on the immunity level of all the shots, believe that dogs only need one rabies shot for a life time immunity. Add to the fact, that there hasn't been a case of rabies in NY for over 22 years and they haven't even seen it in wildlife during those years. So I am not going to worry about it.
I never used anything on Gigi last summer and was lucky that she never got any fleas. I am afraid to try anything on her now, so I still have no clue what I can do for her this year. I know that the fleas are bad this year because of the warm winter that we have had, and Princess must have had a couple on her a few weeks ago, because she was scratching and I got bit several times when I was playing with her. So she got bathed and I put K9 on her, and luckily I didn't find anything on Gigi, nor did I catch her scratching. Hey, maybe if Gigi stays close to Princess, it will be enough to ward off fleas on her too, LOL! -------Original Message------- From: ouidan Date: 3/13/2012 9:16:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Re: Sentry flea application I told my vet and he suggestd anything without primryhrins for ticks. But mine had a reaction to comfortis too, vomiting and they smelled so bad of pesticides, my dogs would eat it. And I am getting some all natural herbs to try spot on next time. He oked it. I called epa and reported it. But they have 75,000 reports of incidents and deaths and are still not doing anything My vet said they report all cases too. --- In [email protected], "okiemare@..." <okiemare@...> wrote: > > Haven't ever used Sentry. > I use the generic Frontline...Fipronil. > It works fine with me crew. > I sure wouldn't let that be the end of it with Sentry.
