General Discussion Flea medication
Hey Everyone!
This is my first time posting as I am more of a lurker and get my lots of joy from seeing all the brittany dog pictures and information ❤️❤️. So please never stop posting the cute pictures 🥰!
On to my question, I was wondering what kind of flea medication everyone is using for their pups? How well do you think they work/ would you recommend them? Where are you from (some places get a break from fleas during winter)? Have you had any bad experiences?
I live in Southern California where fleas can be a constant battle. Mine is currently on Nexgard plus, and has been for awhile now. She seems to do well now that I figured out how to give the meds so she doesn't feel sick... Before she would get very sick and would throw up and we thought she couldn't handle the chews and she ended up with tapeworms when she was on just the topical meds 😔.
While I have been happy with the Nexgard Plus, soon I will be taking her to a vaccine clinic that will have Nexgard (not nexgard plus) and bravecto available and might try one of them, but I get anxious with these kinds of meds.
Added pictures of Vera, my 9 year old spoiled princess stinky chonky girl, bc she is so smiley and cute 🥰🥰.
