Arrrgggghhhh - Fleas!! New Flea Medicine Failed...

Let me start by saying that I've used flea protection on my dogs forever with no problems (Frontline Plus). My vet stopped carrying Frontline Plus b/c they said they'd had too many complaints about it...

1. If you have been using Frontline Plus successfully "forever" why would you consider a change? I am of the opinion that some vet practices are more about money and selling than good medicine.
2. Frontline Plus is widely available from many sources.
3. The fleas do not live on the animals. They are only on the animals to feed, so there is a flea friendly habitat the animals have accessed and brought the fleas back home.
