 |  |  |  | I would never use flea preventative from a store like walmart. The problem with biospot and others is that they work in the bloodstream so the flea actually has to bite in order to get any of the killing agents. I also do not like buying meds off the internet like 1800petmeds because they can sell fakes and are not subjuct to the FDA rules. I use Frontline Plus for my dogs, but I use it every 2months in the summer and every 3 months in the winter. My pets have NEVER had fleas. Like others have said all my dogs share Frontline, so a 6 month supply of the 89-132lbs covers my 4 dogs for 6 months or longer depending on the time of year. My dogs are 150lbs, 40lbs, 27lbs, and 5lbs, so my biggest dog requires 2 sizes on her own I save a ton of money this way, so if money is an issue this could work for you. My Saint has flea allergies so she has to be protected year round...vet visits and treating after the fact is so much more expensive and she would be so miserable. I know this sounds stupid because I said they have never had fleas but she was a rescue from a hoarding situation and when she came to rescue she was infested with fleas and had flea bite dermititis. |  |  |  |  |
