Question
 I have 2 dogs, mix breeds. I had been putting the Frontline Pluse on them, but it is really costly. Do you think that something sold in a store,like Walmart, would work as good? I was thinking of trying Sergents flee drops. Would these work as well or should I stick with the Frontline? Thanks for any help you have to offer.

Answer
Hello Lynne, I understand your concern.  If you do not have a serious flea or tick problem, Then by all means another choice like sergents or Bio Spot, usually sold in most pet stores will be effective.  I have customers who use the previous products and have great success.  Unless you live in or your dog is exposed to a high flea infested area, then you should be fine.  If you take your dog to dog parks or walk your dog in a specific area just for dogs where many dogs play, then you may need something stronger like frontline.  Use your judgement, and remember if it was not strong enough and you made a bad choice you can always go back to frontline.  Good luck Cindy lou :)
