I always would buy advantix II for Dc, but before I'd even finish a box he'd be past the recommended weight. So a few weeks ago I started putting ACV into his food. Now I just found a flea on him. Since I was able to catch it and flush it down the toilet, I am assuming the ACV is working. Still...

Had a guy at the local Co-Op tell me that you can use 1% ivermectin as flea meds. I've tried to find info on this but coming up dry. I use it monthly for H.W., and have used it to treat mange in the past, and have used it in poultry and dogs for general wormings, but haven't heard of this...
