[Dailydrool] Comfortis oral flea control

[Paula Aitken]

Peach had fleas and after baths with special shampoo to avoid washing off the frontline and treating the yard, they were still eating her up. Comfortis and now trifexis, have worked awesome and she has had no itch-hikers :). If you don't see any fleas though, I don't know...Peach was allergic to her puppy shampoo, before switching to the vet recommended one, ( she would break out in hives the day after being washed), so it could be anything. I hope the vet's advice and the droolers' advice will help you. Good luck to you and your pup.

> Our dog Herky has been on Frontline Plus and then Advantix for flea control.  I have never seen any fleas on him but he does a lot of scratching and is very sore under his arm pits.  Our vet recommended that we switch his flea control to Comfortis pills.  I ordered them today from Doctors Foster and Smith as Pet Meds is out of stock.  Is it possible that Herky has fleas that I cannot detect?  Has anyone had success with Comfortis?  I have been blaming his itching on allergies but have tried no grain dog food and it has not helped him.  The vet gave us some medicated shampoo and we are to give him a bath twice a month in addition to switching to  Comfortis.
