What flea tick treatment is the most effective and safe for older cats? (Please do not tell me to thoroughly vacuum the entire home and move furniture around every day for five weeks in a row.) I have been through that as well.
(Yes, I have raised them as naturally as possible and understand that building the immune system is key.)
I acquiesce to pharmaceuticals when it comes to fleas and ticks, as the natural route is not realistically effective.
An integrative vet tech recommended Revolution years ago. I have used it many times. It is expensive.
I only give it to them 3-4 months a year during the Flea season.
Last year, I tried Revolt, the knockoff, but it did not work.
I then tried Credelio, which worked well and was much easier to administer.
This year, I have a new integrative vet who does labs, acupuncture, and Chinese herbs. She briefly said she thinks Revolution is the safest, but we did not have time to discuss Revolution vs. Revolt vs. Credelio in detail.
I understand Revolution Plus is more toxic to the cats, and the risk outweighs the benefit. Is this accurate, according to the holistic vets here?
I wonder if Revolution will still be effective or if the parasites have adapted to it. Credelio does not do much for ticks. I am a tick magnet (lol), having contracted tick-born diseases Lyme disease and alpha-gal syndrome. So, safely protecting my oler cats against ticks protects me.
Yes, I sprayed nematodes last year, and I think it helped.
Yes, I used Flea Busters powder and vacuumed like crazy last year, and this year is not as bad.
I was ready to order more credelio until she said she recomended Revolution.
Can Anyone advise? Which product?
