The vet suggested that if I use a Preventic Tick Collar For Dogs then I can only apply the Frontline every 3 months. The collar also claims to last for 3 months. Does anyone else go this route? I have never used a flea collar. I do remember the flea collars when I was little and they smell and were unpleasant. Frontline Plus used every month is $175 for the large size dog for 1 year. Preventic - $15.00 x 4 = $60.00 Frontline – Every 3 mos = $58.00 Saving about $60 per year.

The active ingredient in Preventic collars is amitraz, it works by paralyzing the ticks jaws so they can't attach and feed. and yes they work great. Do you have that big a problem with ticks? The collars won't do a thing for fleas. For primarily fleas you can use Frontline every three months anyway depending on how bad they are in your area. Lisa Jerri Lee
