Questioni have bought my pitbull a flea coller but many people are telling me that all pittbulls are allergic its in thier genes is this true before i put it on him
AnswerTina -
A flea collar is not the best treatment for fleas for any breed. In my experience, the smaller breeds tend to have a reaction to flea collars and certain pesticides. I am not familiar with the pit bull having any particular sensitivity to flea collars. I think that the best flea treatments are those that are prescribed by veterinarians - Frontline, Advantage, Advantix, ect. Most over the counter flea products are not reliably safe - the most effective (and safest) flea products are those that can be obtained from a vet's office.
