Question from Jeri Steckroth
We have used a combination flea and tick with heartworm for years. Sentinel seems to be temporarily discontinued. What is the best way to cover both issues with mininmal inconvenience at this point?
Our Vet Says:
Unfortunately there are only a few products which cover all problems and one of them is Revolution. It is a prescription product.
Alternatively you can try Interceptor or HeartGuard for heartworms and gastro-intestinal worms and another product like K9Advantix or Frontline Plus for fleas and ticks.
