flea protection for a 1kg dog

[latifah]

Hi i have a 1kg yorkshire terrier 14wk puppy, i was wondering if anyone had suggestions for flea treatment. I have religiously frontlined latifah and have never had a flea problem ever, i think pup came with fleas, i’ve combed her through with a nit comb nightly but looking online i noticed frontline starts from 2kg, She has her second jabs on monday. So i can get something from the vets, but prefer online as its cheaper. Thanks in advance.

Val has an awesume ‘critter repellant’ but i don’t know if the weight of the dog has anything to do with it. I only got big dogs  :-\ . But Val will answer shortly, am sure of it  😉 .

My cousin has a 2lb Chiuaua and uses Advocate on her, she’s 5 months old. They do different pipette sizes for different size dogs  🙂 I’ve used this on Sky recently as she had mites and its got rid of them  🙂

I need to find out if this is one Whisper can have… sooner I get that MDR-1 test done the better  ::)

No point asking the vet, they still try to prescibe me Milbemax  ::)

Yep works well, Sky’s mites were Sarcoptes (fox mange) and it cleared them up very quickly with no side effects  🙂

Thanks for the help everyone. :happy: She had panacur paste for her worming, no side effects.
