FrontLine in the Winter

[LittleDogLVR]

For those of you who live in the North !
Do you continue to use Frontline once there is below freezing temps and
snow ? Lizzie is due for her next application but there is no way there are ticks or fleas outside right now and not for another few months .
She doesn't go anywhere that she would be exposed to them either !
Just thinking why bother right now

Hey John,

Zoe's vet only gave me treatments until November (and we already had snow by then). I always thought they started too late too, but I gave Zo zo the last one anyway. It couldn't hurt, right??

No I dont think it would hurt to use it, if you have it.
I dont have anymore and would need to go get some..
So I may wait till March and start her up again !

I use Frontline through October here, after that it gets pretty cold so no need. I usually start in May, however this year I had to start in March due to a couple that appeared on Leo and Kitty but never saw another one after that. White attracks fleas so it doesn't hurt to apply if you think it's necessary depending on your weather. Geez, I hate fleas!:mad:

I dont use it I do use the heartworm though all 12months,most peoplejust use it May to October though which is fine

Well I live in Aussie ( brisbane, sunny Queensland) so Flea treatment needs to be used all year round here.

They recommend year round use here, so Jack gets his Revolution on the first of month every month.

I don't use flea and heartworm stuff in the winter. My vet recommends just the six month treatment during the spring and summer months.
