NHS tip – Senior Pet Care

Last week I found this really ugly looking beetle – then about 3 days ago I found a tick that my son picked up when outside playing. Then the next day my husband tells me that he found a "full"tick (which was the same as the ugly beetle I found) – then today I found another "full tick" on the wall.

All of our animals (two cats and one dog) are on prevention – but I have also just bathed them all and re applied the prevention & sprayed the carpet with flea and tick killer – where are these things coming from and who/what are they feeding on?
I haven’t seen one on any of the pets – they are all on Advantage/K-9 Advantix. Most of the ticks we are finding are crawling in the house full of blood…..
I need to figure out how they are getting in the house – to keep them from getting in and how do I kill them now that they are in here?

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?

I have 5 indoor cats.
I have one dog, who is obviously in and out all day.
I usually buy Advantage for the pets, because it’s inevitable that at least once a year we get fleas.
This year I’ve noticed that I can save some money by buying Frontline, but there aren’t any weight classes for cats on Petmeds.com
That seems really weird to me, but can I just give the same dose to my 15lb cat as I would to my 2lb kitten?
