You can use a Preventic collar, a Seresto collar, or a topical medication such as Frontline or K9 Advantix along with Comfortis for tick coverage. Or, if you prefer to stick with oral medications, you can switch from Comfortis to Nexgard or Bravecto - both of these cover both fleas and ticks, and are also very effective.

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! While it is ok to use both, I would suggest a different approach if you are still finding fleas on Daisy. I would try a product called Capstar which can kill a lot of fleas at once and combine it with another monthly flea preventative other than Comfortis if you are not seeing the desired results currently. I would suggest products such as Frontline and Bravecto which are great. Good luck and have a great night!

Hi, I know you must be frustrated. Don't worry, we will kill the fleas. The best option for your pet is Comfortis (Spinosad) which kills and prevents fleas for a month. Remember though you must administer the medication every month in order to prevent reinfestation. In order to completely eliminate the problem, you will need to have your house and yard treated. Also, even if you don't see fleas on your other pets prevention is warranted in order to prevent infestations.

Comfortis (tablets) is what I would recommend as very effective and reliable. Otherwise here is a list of good quality flea (and ticks) treatment. Spot ons: Revolution, Advantage, Advantage Multi, Seresto ( collar) (ticks as well). Personally I don't recommend collars as they are less reliable in terms of efficacy. A good house spray would be Indoorex. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Nexgard is an excellent product that provide tick protection in addition to flea prevention. Bravecto is a similar product, but it provides coverage against fleas and ticks for 3 months. All of these medications require a prescription. I would recommend discussing them with your vet to determine the best fit for Charlie.
