EDITED: Lots of ticks ... is it not doing its job. I'm getting really annoyed. I'm not sure that we picked the ticks up from our neighborhood (I had taken Dweezil to a friend's house located in a brand new area, where the houses have acres and acres of land and woods) ... but I'm still so confused as to how I could have missed about 15 ticks hitching a ride on Dweezil, and then not seen them until the next day ... (there were only three on her body, I found a TON crawling around the house). I'm sorry guys to say this, but we've never had ticks in my house before, and I dont think it's worth three hours a day checking my house + more time to check the dog + checking all her toys and bedding ... So there has to be an easier way to not have bugs all over my house. Is Advantix good enough? Is there anything better? I did walk her around our neighborhood and we did not find any new ones ...
