    \r\n <!-' + '- google_ad_section_start -' + '->If its not broke, dont try to fix it. If what your using has been working so far just keep on using it. Because different flea preventatives are going to work differently depending on the area in which you live. for instance Frontline or the generic Pet Armor work well in my area, but for some reason Advantage/Advantix doesnt work so well. But for my friend who lives out of state its the other way around. I think it has something to do with the very different wildlife population. If you live in an area that is heavily populated by deer you will have more of a proble with fleas and ticks being carried around vs living in an area that doesnt have many deer or wild animals coming right up to your door. Also another thing that effects it is whee you walk. If your walking on sidewalks or streets you have less of a chance picking something up then if your walking through the woods or playing in very tall grass ect.<!-' + '- google_ad_section_end -' + '->\r\n

      Fleas

      I have always used the flea treatments prescribed by the vet. We do not have a problem with fleas and I would like to keep it that way, but I was wondering if there are more natural options available to keep fleas away?
