Anyone given this to half their yard with success? All my dogs are kenneled together in the same barn and I gave 6 Comfortis out of 12. Made sure one dog in each kennel got the comfortis.

I think you are better off giving it to all of them for 2-3 months. When I use Comfortis it kills the fleas and breaks the cycle of them. After 2 doses the fleas are gone until they are reintruduced. Ive gone as long as 2-3 years before retreating.

You can also crush each tablet and use one for two dogs... works well. Just be sure to crush each one and mix it up.

I normally use Dectomax injectable and didn't have any fleas but moved to a new yard and have them bad, plus we bring them in off the pigs we kill.

I'm a big fan of it in general. Never tried just giving it to half the crew though....

Give it to all your dogs for a few months. Fleas start dying in 30 min! I was combing dead fleas off my dogs after 30 min and couldn't believe it.
Once they are all gone it takes a while for them to come back. No need to do it year round or anything. Your mileage may vary, but when they come back, just give them another 2-3 months on it.

So far so good. Finding hundreds of dead fleas on the dogs that didn't get it. Getting the rest dosed up today. But for $240.00 for 12 dogs it better work.

That was the only vet in my area that would sell it to me without an office visit for each dog.

You can ask your Vet for a written prescription and find it cheaper online usually.
Trifexis does the same thing but also treats for Heart worms

100 bucks for 6 pills down here... good for a 120 pound dog so I do like Mike and crush them and split each pill between two dogs. Works great even on the couple dogs I have that weigh 80-90lbs.

Yes sir, whatever y'all do, be sure and mix it. The first time I used it, I just cut the tablet in half... it worked on one dog and not the other. Same thing happened to some friends... we assumed all the medicine is one part of the tablet. I've been using it like this for 4 years now with excellent results... and I only use it twice a year when I start seeing fleas. the best thing about it is that you don't have to spray your yard or kennels... the dogs become flea killing machines and it wipes them out. |
