Frontline Topspot for ticks and fleas is new and improved. This is a once monthly topical application for cats and dogs as young as 8 weeks of age. We recommend this product for the dog parks, campers, forest preserve crowd. Advantage for fleas also has a product for ticks now called Kiltix which is applied and works similar to Frontline. A little more about ticks, if you are campers, hikers and like to go into Wisconsin especially we do recommend Lyme vaccines for your dogs.
Spring is also the time for bees, spiders and other bugs.
Many pets will experience an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Classic signs include a swollen itchy face, muzzle, and eyes. Sometimes a paw will become swollen suddenly and the pet may lick and limp. This condition does need treatment so it does not progress into a life threatening anaphylactic reaction. Call the clinic and we can give instructions as to what to do next.
