bark Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Just checking with everyone to see if those living on the North Shore have experienced a worse bout of fleas than normal? My dog has Advantix applied monthly unless we're going in a bad tick area then it's fortnightly and he's never had fleas. This week he went to a dog park, played with a few dogs and picked up some hitch hikers (fleas) even though he was into his 3rd week of Advantix. Call me niave but I thought Advantix was good with fleas for the whole 4 wks ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 In summer I find Advantix only good for two weeks (for fleas and ticks). North Shore/Northern BEaches has been really bad for fleas over the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavsRcute Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I find it only lasts 2 weeks for fleas and ticks. I'm on the North Shore too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adza Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I'm in the south west, no fleas I have seen for a while now not 1. Hope I didn't just jinx myself :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancinbcs Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 The only time I tried Advantix I ended up with a dog covered in fleas within a week. I went back to Frontline after that and usually get 6 weeks at least out of the Frontline for fleas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
