Lowe's still carries the T&S without the fertilizer in it. Wal Mart does not (at least not OUR wal mart  Angry )

The problem I am having with the T&S isn't so much that it isn't killing the fleas, but that I have to re apply it so often. It lacks the "staying power" that advantage has. I have now spiked my T&S with just a shot of mineral oil, and it seems to have a little more stick to it. Once the fleas bite the dogs, you can watch them die in about 10 seconds. It's pretty cool. The problem is that I have to get the hatching fleas under control because I don't want my dogs to have to be bitten by a million fleas in order to kill them.

When you mixed up the T&S to spray down the kennels, how did you apply it and at what concentration? It's WAY cheaper than the fipronil and if it will work in the kennels I'd rather use that. I LOVE the fipronil on the dogs now that I have spiked it with mineral oil as well.

Cheers!

At least I'm successful at doing nothing right. I guess it could be worse.
