Re: tick control - NexGard?

It was funny here this week as I had treated all my "big dogs" w/ Fiprogard (the generic version of Frontline) ~2 wks ago after finding the first ticks. Mind you, Lyme etc is not an issue in my area thankfully. I had not treated my 1 yo or the 2- 11 wk old pups yet as I was going to split a big dog dose amongst them. Went swimming at a small lake out in the boonies on Tues while I was on my work rounds w/ the youngsters, and I pulled a tick out of my hair after my next stop (yuck), so I go them treated that night. Started one of the pups on his lunch tracking session when I saw a tick stagger on his shoulders and fall off. It was still normal sized, so sure didn't get much before he met his match!
