I never had flea problems until this year. My two dogs were allergic to them so I knew right away and treated them with Advantage and treated the house with Borax. Always caught them early and didn't have any on going problems. Only used the Advantage if I saw a flea or they started having reactions.
This year the pyrs got them. Still don't know where they pick them up. I tried everything and treated the indoor pets at the same time because they were getting them also. Tried Advantix first (one cat got Revolution because that's what I had for her). They would all clear up except the male pyr. Tried Frontline on the dogs. Same thing. Tried Advantage. Tried garlic. Sprayed outside in the areas the dogs spent time, treated the house. I would check and he would still be covered in them.
Finally got Comfortis for him. They cleared up, but then the female pyr had them again. Finally got Comfortis for all the dogs. Seems to be working out well.
From what I saw nothing was working for the male pyr so they just kept reappearing. I honestly think he had them when I got him. I remember the former owner saying one of the products didn't work for him, but couldn't remember which. It seems neither the Frontline or Advantage work for him.
