Product Review: Advantage II

I got some Advantage II last time instead of the regular Advantage. For clarification, I always get the purple package, as all the cats are over 9 pounds.

I got a pack of 12, which covered the cats for 2 months with 2 applications left over.

I'm not really happy with it. The regular Advantage kills the fleas. Advantage II also kills the larvae and eggs, which is why I got it. But it doesn't seem to kill the fleas (full sized adults) as well.

I have carpet, and the fleas live in it - they lay eggs and the carpet is full of eggs now. Even after multiple vacuumings, it seems we are inundated with fleas. It's even worse since I applied the Advantage II.

I'm using my premise spray (Siphotrol) and salt. I tried the diatomaceous earth, but it plugged up my vacuum so bad that it stopped working, and I had to fix it. So, I'm back to salt.

That's my report. If things get better, I'll let you know.....

Updates!

I finally got to update a couple of pages on the site...

The

page and the
http://www.for-the-love-of-cats.com/ChronicDiarrhea.html
page.

The flea control page was a mess! I fixed it and made it less redundant.  I put up only one link to the various products, instead of many links for the same thing to different suppliers.  I found the best deals I could for you.  I only linked to the 6-month flea drops.  There are no collars.  There is a new report that collars are associated with seizures, so that was done on purpose.  If you want a collar, I suggest this one...

The chronic diarrhea page had a full change of content. It mirrors a page on Only Natural Pet Supplies, so you can find that article if you would like to, but they also cited the page I cited, which has gone offline.


That's it for now...
