Mine are currently on Advantix for fleas and Sentinel Spectrum for heartworm and intestinal worms. Is there any one product that covers the lot? And would you recommend it?

Sentinal Spectrum covers fleas as well. Interceptor is the one that doesn't I believe. So you can dump the separate flea treatment and save $!

Revolution does everything except tapeworm, but if your dog has no fleas it shouldn't have tapeworms anyway. It even does ear mites.

With the flea problems so many people have been having this summer some have had to use Advantage a couple of weeks after the Revolution just to keep on top of the pests.

Dusting diatomaceous earth wherever the dogs lie around will help control fleas in the environment, or spraying a neem oil solution on the dogs, bedding and ground. This will increase the amount of time between applications, as the heartworm component in these treatments lasts for 6 weeks - the manufacturers just say to apply monthly because they thought that the public would find it easier to remember.

Of course it couldn't possibly be anything to do with selling so much more
