We used these on our Brittany spaniel mutt and they worked great. Tried them on our yellow lab (once he was old enough) and they gave him problems. We're currently using this brand and it's been working great.seresto collar
I was discussing this with the Mrs the other day. Ever notice that they're always coming out with a new flea and tick medicine? Why is that? You'd think once they found something that works they would just stick with it. Assuming no harm comes to the animal.I use Bravecto. It's a three month chewable treatment.
A vet told me once that fleas somehow become resistant to some of the anti flea stuff. Not sure if real or bullshit sales tactic. I do know that some of the first flea drops worked for a few years and became less effective. Probably by design to charge more for newer "more effective" meds.I was discussing this with the Mrs the other day. Ever notice that they're always coming out with a new flea and tick medicine?

Mine ate one of my kids socks when he was a puppy. Talked to the vet and watched him for a couple days. Stayed eating, drinking, and pooping. Finally came across a poop that was furry and purple. That was the best day! We luckily avoided the vet.This idiot puppy ate a glove.
$1,000 vet's bill later, she's got a ziplock bag opening along her belly, four different medications, and eating boiled chicken/rice diet for the next week with a cone around her head.
Oh, did I mention they discovered she has hookworms?
Yeah, fun vet trip for the little girl.

I'm not an Entomologist. But I think the real reason has more to do with patent law. Once the patent expires and the treatment is available as a generic product, it's not as profitable. So, the big name companies keep developing the next patented treatment.So we're literally building super fleas
