How your veterinarian can help you protect your dog from the danger of fleas

Your veterinarian is the best source of information regarding your pet’s health. When talking with your veterinarian about flea protection, your visit may include:

• A thorough examination of your pet to determine the severity and possible sources of any flea infestation
• A review of flea control options, including immediate remedies as well as a long-term flea protection program
• An assessment of your lifestyle and that of your pet’s to determine which flea product is best suited for your specific needs
• A discussion of the need for year-round flea protection

Products which are FDA-approved often require a prescription from your veterinarian and therefore are not available over the counter, so it’s important to consult with your veterinarian about which product is best for your dog.
