The following are the products that we currently carry that cover external parasites.  We have high standards for quality and although no product has everything we want (not yet anyway), you can feel safe that we have personally reviewed the data on anything that we sell and your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. You can click on the name of each product below to see the manufacturer's web site for the product.
If you choose a product that does not cover ticks for your dog, we also have Preventic collars. These collars are the only product available that will kill AND detach ticks.  They are affordable and last for up to three months.  The only complaint that we ever hear about these is that many people just do not like a collar that they can see and feel.  Preventic collars do not offer any flea coverage at all.
