Got my 2 dogs on Trifexis. Never a problem. It aint cheap though.

I've always bombed the house and vacuumed, along with spraying the yard. After vacuuming, get rid of bag, live fleas may be inside.

Ultracide. You'll get somewhat instant relief, seem like you're getting reinfested after a week or so, then those will die soon after. Has an IGR (insect growth regulator) that sterilizes and kills for up to 7 months. Vacuum and dispose of contents before treating. After treating and it's dried, vacuum and dispose of contents again.

And that. Great stuff, and good for heart worms also.

I prefer sentinel because its a little cheaper, but used trifexis when sentinel wasn't available. Haven't had any issues

Yeah, they release a formulation for cats not too long ago. We tried it on our outside cats, but it caused them to throw up everytime we gave it to them with a meal. We went back to Frontline.
Thanks.

That's why we started using Triflexis too. Both are great for fleas, just figured may as well give the one with the heartworm med also.

Mosquitos have really not been bad at all so far though. Practically non existent.

this can be fixed by giving them half the pill a couple of days apart.

This does the trick.

And call pest control to spray your yard.

We had the same problem with fleas for about a week and it sucked.
