Have any of you used Pet Armor? It is supposed to be the exact same
thing as Frontline Plus - Fipronil and S Methoprene - The Pet Armor
site claims it is a generic for Frontline, and it is much cheaper.
I'm seeing it advertised in all sorts of places now, so if any of you
have used
I use two large dog crates and place them door to door (tie together with
twist-ems) - one cage is the sleeping and food area, the other cage holds
the litter box. Very important: Drill little hole in litter box rim, and
tie to cage with a twit-em; saves a lot of cleaning up from box tipping
That's how be introduce new cats in a room at the shelter.

I need something new. Advantage just isn't working any more. Spent all day
yesterday cleaning combing cats to get rid of fleas they just had Advantage

Frontline used to not kill the fleas, just make them sterile, is this still the
case? I couldn't use it because my one cat

I wouldn't put Sevin Dust on my plants. There's no way I would put it on my

When our garage was flea-infested when I first started trapping feral cats,
I couldn't treat them individually. The fleas were jumping on us in the
garage, thankfully, they didn't make it into the house. I used diatomaceous
earth, sprinkled it all over the floor, cracks along the wall, in the
I have never heard of it, but what I have just read on several sites, Sevin
powder sounds very dangerous and is definitely poisonous!
Diatomaceous earth is not, it's just an irritant when inhaled. One can also

I'm not quite sure what Advantage does - you could look up each product and
see their specifications.
I just sent some suggestions to group; some we have used and are using, and
some that I am considering, although what we have right now really works
well on all the cats and the doggie. Although
I've always had great luck with Revolution, if you need something new. It's
not cheap, but I think it is worth the price (about $15 per cat). I only
have two cats, so it isn't bad for me.

Ticks have been horrible this year, I'll do a little research to see if
there are any solutions.

Apparently, it works on any crawling insect, including ticks.
I can't wait to use it in my yard!!!

I get the Large dog size Advantage split it for my cats. I have done this
for years it's worked great, but doesn't seem to work any more. I will try
the revolution. I do have 2 cats of my own, 4 foster cats, one 65 lb dog, so
it gets
expensive.

Are you sure it's the same stuff for cats and dogs? I have never heard of
splitting it - could be bad! Have you compared the ingredients and their
amounts?
My vet refuses to do revolution - he says it's dangerous because there have
been many incidents of cats convulsing - too many things in it
We have our property sprayed for ticks and have no problems, so far, knock

Sprayed with what? I live on a farm and can't do it all but can do
the area used. Same with the area of the ferals.

I have friends who split doses of various tick/flea stuff regularly.
They say they get a more precise dose given the range on the pre-
measured packages. I don't know. I can't get either on the ferals
and they really need something. My cats are basically indoor

Many dog products are extremely dangerous for cats, but at least the
last time that I ordered, Revolution used the same formula for both
dogs and cats. I have used the large dog tube many times on my cats.
Like Lynda, I have a couple of cats that lose their fur at the
