We really are this year. I have never used anything for fleas or ticks on Meg. I don't worry about fleas really at all, but this year, the ticks are just horrible. I did the whole Lyme thing twice with the horse; I really don't want to do it again with the dog. I put Frontline on her for the first time ever last month, but have been hearing from a lot of local people that it has stopped working for them as well. I haven't seen another tick on Meg since I used it, but I don't know if it's the meds or just luck.
A bunch of people on our agility club list are talking about a different med - starts with a "p". My email isn't working great right now, so I can't go check. Anyone know what that might be?

I will use chemicals, since I do NOT want another bout with Lyme for human or animal in this house. My husband had Lyme and we were fortunate enough to have caught it early on (although he had secondary neurological symptoms that were scary!). I have no problems using chemicals as long as they are affective, and ultimately help to protect us all.
Flame me if you want --but I am not messing around with ticks!
