We've had a very dry spring so far and it seems the fleas and ticks are more abundant than usual. I have a black lab and a toy poodle that live inside. I use Frontline Plus on both of them, but was still getting ticks off of them. So I added a flea and tick collar as well. The ticks don't seem to be as many and they don't attach to the dogs. INSTEAD, they crawl off on us and get attached.

Is there anything else I can use that might be more effective and not jeopardize my dog's health????
