Flea and Tick prevention?
We will be traveling for the first time with our 11 pound Shih-Tzu. We don't have her on any flea protection program as of now. She has tried Trifexis but got lethargic on it. What do you all use?

I tried frontline years ago. At the time, it only sterilized the fleas rather than out and out killed them. As the dog was infested with fleas, it was pretty much useless for what I needed - to get rid of the fleas. After two weeks, the dog was still infested with fleas. I used Advantix as soon as I could re-treat and the fleas were gone in a few hours after application.
Has Frontline changed? Does is now kill the fleas?
Yes it must because we have never had a flea problems on Lucky with Frontline and Lucie with Advantix. We live in the country and stay out side a lot plus all the travelling we do. We do have ticks and I know for a fact as soon as they bite either one of them the tick is done for. I personally like both the topicals.
