ReactionQ: We have been using advantix on our 4 lb chihuahua. each time he has had a reaction but the last time was more severe. he threw up, was very lethargic. at first our vet said it was probably a coincidence, but it happens every time. we want to use a flea & tick application. can you recommend a different product? we have tried revolution - small reaction but no control of the fleas. thank you. A: I would use oral program on this little guy for my flea prevention, and if necessary a dose or two of oral capstar to kill any adults on him. consider treating house for fleas as well as much of life cycle still occurs off dog

Heartworm for dog and catQ: I have a dog that weighs 61#, a pup that weighs 22# and a cat that weighs about 12#. i notice that the interceptor dose for the heavier dog is the same for the cat. how can this be right? A: This is an excellent question. because of the cat's metabolism, the amount of this medication per pound is higher in the cat. therefore a 12 lb cat gets the same dose as a 61 lb dog.
