Hi – as per my previous question on micro-chipping, I have recently (accidentally) rescued a beagle puppy who is now approaching 6 months old. When I got her, the poor thing was riddled with worms which had led to an infection in her intestines. She has been to the vet and was of course cured with Drontal wormer along with Inceptor and antibiotics. However, due to the cost I no longer wish to purchase these meds from my vet when I can instead source from places such as 1-800-petmeds. My question is though, on reading up on the medications it seems that Inceptor is not only for heart worms but also treats and prevents hook worms,round worms and whip worms but not tape worms? Is there another broad spectrum wormer I could use that covers them all and then a seperate medication solely for heart worm prevention so that I am not overloading her little system? All advice much appreciated. Thank you.
Her flea treatment is up todate – I use frontline.

Advantage for cats is cheaper from an online Australian store, even with higher shipping, but I don’t know if it’s legal to import this to the US for my use. The store suggests checking with authorities as the meds are in Australian packaging. Does anyone know which authority I would check with?

We have used flea meds in the past on our cats and it worked just fine (same brand). However, this is the first time in a year at least that we bought some. After putting it on the backs of their necks, we assumed the fleas would die as in the past. However, now the flea dirt is out of control and there are MORE fleas. What happened? Should I ask my vet for more (free)? We spent for three treatments. Why didn’t it work this time?

What is the best, Frontline, Advantage or K9 Advantage.

I have 1 dog (chihuahua) and 2 cats.

Could i just get some flea medicine for dogs and still use them on my cats?

And to save a little bit more money, could i get flea meds for dogs 21-55lbs and divide it up for my 3 pets?
