Consult your veterinarian before using any product. Some breeds will have adverse reactions and none of us have been to veterinary school so we can only suggest what might work. Some priducts can harm an animals liver and kidneys.

Always get recommendations from your vet prior to the use of any suggested products as all have toxins or they would not be effective on the pests they are designed to target.

Ivermectin DEFINITELY works on ticks.

My five dogs are thankful that I took the time to get them this medicine.

Tick season is pretty much over now anyway.

Dr. Kasey at Progressive prescribed Certifect for our doggie, we haven't seen a tick since. It's a topical option for those who might not want to give a pill.

How much is the Certifect and how often do you administer? Does it list the active ingredient? Never mind, found it. http://www.certifect.com/Pages/default.aspx

I had heard Casey Canton was administering something that works. That's great. Ivermect is hard to beat on cost and effectiveness tho. And it's an easy squirt in the mouth with a treat afterwords. Ours line up for it once they see the treats or carrots come out.

My dog is sensitive with his diet, hence I try to avoid as many oral meds as possible. He can't even have most treats! Certifect goes between his shoulder blades on his neck, once a month. We live in an area with a lot of deer and this solution keeps the ticks out of the house. But because of my dog's diet issues, when we see Kasey for various things sometimes it's a conversation as to what will be best. He does prescribe Ivermect as well, he actually told me that many people have success with it. We just have to choose a different option, but it is working well for us. 🙂

ETA: For the life of me, I can't remember how much it costs - $30ish?
