Best Worming/flea/mite/etc. Control For My Miniature Schnauzer...

[Guest Lil' Noodlez]

Good evening everyone,

Sorry if this has been addressed in another post - and if it has, can you please send me the link for it to save everyone repeating themselves...

This Saturday i take delivery of a 6 week old, Salt and Pepper, female Miniature Schnauzer.

I'm looking for the best worming/flea/mite/etc. treatment for her and the breed in general.

I used to use Advocate on a Boxer that i owned at one stage and then the Vet would simply give her what Advocate didn't.

I went back to my Vet this afternoon and asked them about this and they suggested a combination of Comfortis (for fleas) and Interceptor Spectrum (for worms).

I've just been looking online and had another look at Advocate, and while I’m not fond of the oily feel of it, i noticed that it addresses the mite issue too - whereas the combination recommended by my Vet above doesn't seem to address mites.

What are other Schnauzer (or even other breeds in general) owners using for this sort of control? I'm merely looking for the most effective and reliable. Cost doesn't really matter. I just don't want to purchase 5 different things when i could get 1 or 2, etc.

Appreciate any/all feedback.

Thankyou,

Steve
