Through the "good offices" of some REAL friends, who, most probably for their own safety, were able to provide me with some Frontline, I have been fairly successful at combating a major tick infestation.
We had 4 dogs (now three). Ticks were everywhere. I had the house and yard sprayed, bathed the dogs etc.
For the house, furniture and yard I used BARICADA. BARICADA is available at any Vet store. It is a potent insecticide.
I bathed the dogs in it. I sprayed the house with it. I sprayed all the yard with it.
Then I applied Frontline to each of the dogs as per the indications onthe package. The results were fairly evident, and today, we do not see any ticks. It did take a few days for the infestation to die out.
Next Monday, the dogs get another dose.
I went to 1800petmeds.com and saw a sale on K9Advantix....You could have them send it by BusinessMail...call me if you need some assistance.
I am forever gratful to my friends who provided the Frontline....believe me...
