We're going to go to Advantage for the cats as frontline seems to be making them bald!!! ( on the spot you put it on)<br />and that can't be good.<br /><br />thanks xxxLaura @ Our Wee Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14240391312194055909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31981511.post-45741294634259258182010-01-07T12:29:39.847+13:002010-01-07T12:29:39.847+13:00We had that problem with our dogs here north of Br...We had that problem with our dogs here north of Brisbane last summer also. A reliable source (a friend who worked with vet supplies) said that Frontline had changed their mix and it was known to be not so effective - but they still sell it <br />& Dr. Harry keeps recommending it! We have 3 dogs and it was costing a packet. I switched to Advantix (not familiar with Practic here). Since then had no probs. Sorry didn't mean this to sound like an advert.... just found your blog and love it! We spent 3 weeks south of Sth Is in September ... and I want to go back .. right now would be good with our sultry summer here.

In actual fact I don't know why we went back to Frontline as Practic was better last year too. It's quite spectacular!Laura @ Our Wee Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14240391312194055909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31981511.post-63417747728639553932010-01-06T16:01:54.651+13:002010-01-06T16:01:54.651+13:00I think the fleas develop an immunity to it.

I alternate between frontline and advantage which seems to help, not sure we have Practic in Oz but I will look out for it.<br /><br />Lovely jacaranda, ours flowers in Late November but gives really good shade to the chooks at this time of the year.greenfumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08157970942128503098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31981511.post-20594227391013153602010-01-06T13:00:33.632+13:002010-01-06T13:00:33.632+13:00sounds like the head lice infestations in schools!...sounds like the head lice infestations in schools!

Hope you get rid of them soon.<br />We had a bad time with fleas last year, strange because we don't have pets.. the fleas were breeding in a pile of sand in the garden and we were transporting them inside on our clothing! I got badly bitten and really fed up of the constant laundering and vacuuming. Eventually we realised where they were coming from and got rid of the sand, put down some diatomaceous earth and a few weeks later no more fleas. Hope we don't have them again!Cabbage Tree Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13035566919486082520noreply@blogger.com
