      None! As far as ticks and fleas…I use cedar essential oil and rub a few drops on my hands and put on an area of the pup they can’t lick out off. I also place cedar chips in my yard to keep fleas and ticks away. The drops work well for pups an humans.

      The vet I go to put my 2 dogs on NexGard Plus. That takes care of fleas, ticks, heart worms , hookworms , round worms. They have no issues with any of the pests.

      I have a Chihuahua mix and also a lab and I use Simparica trio. It’s a monthly chewable and it covers everything but can only be purchased with a prescription from your vet.

      No flea & tick treatment, instead I use Adams plus flea & tick shampoo on my chihuahua. No fleas, no ticks! Ordered it from Chewy

      I just found out you can buy capstar on Amazon about $30. Diatomaceous earth and clove powder for all rugs, mattresses, furniture etc. Wash all lin we ns in hot and dry on hot. Capstar starts killing fleas within 30 minutes. But you have to get the carpets etc as well. Also you can give more than one dose in a week…read the directions of course. Check with your vet.
