Yes I have. It has been a very bad year for fleas, and I was getting nowhere with frontline, which is normally very good. However, the vet suggested a new product, a largish pill to each pet every month, and that worked a treat. Cant remember what it was called now...

Yes we had ours on Trifexis or whatever last year. It is supposed to still work. I read some negative stuff about it online so we took them off. My vet said last week that its safe and he has his dogs on it so we may put them back on. But in the meantime we are going to dust with the Diatomeceous Earth to get rid of the fleas for now.

It’s a big, soft brownish pill? That’s what I had to get last year, and it was very effective. After a couple hours, you can see the fleas abandoning ship like mad! Need to give the dog a bath the next day to get the millions of fleas off the pooch.

I had to smush mine up and mix it into a piece of cheese to get the dog to eat it.

Sorry, can’t remember what it’s called, but the vet will know by the description.
