Hey all you pet lovers!
In the past, I've always bought the expensive Frontline from the vet, but now having three cats and two doggies, today at Walmart, I bought cheaper brands of the same. I found these didn't work too well in the past, but want to avoid spending $100+ if possible. I bought the best over the counter there for pets, same application on the back, saying it kills fleas, ticks, etc. Anyone else here have exp with these cheaper brands!
I have several bites on myself, which I suspect are fleabites! NO evidence of fleas on the pets, but I like to stay on top of it! Can't abide fleas or ticks!
