Still has fleasQ: I have a cat that is 2 years old and he doesn't go outside at all. i also have 2 dogs. all of the animals are on frontline plus. the dogs do not have any fleas but my cat still gets them even though i have him on frontline plus. he is a large cat, about 15 lbs. please let me know if i should give my cat a different flea medicine because frontline plus doesn't seem to be working and these fleas are driving me crazy!! A: For the immediate problem i would recommend your using capstar tablets for your cat for about 3 days or so. that will kill all the adult fleas on him. the problem is probably that there are fleas in his area in the house. you have to vacuum the area every day for a few days and perhaps use a spray to clean the area. you can get information on flea control on our website but this should work.

Ear infectionsQ: Can you give oral antibotics for ear infection for a dog instead of ear drops. i have a dog that i can't put ear drops in. she was hit by a car several years ago and broke both legs and spent alot of time with treatment. since then unable to give any type of treatment. can 't even get a muzzle on her A: Sometimes oral meds can work a bit. most of time most effective however whihc often will reduce pain/inflammation to allow you to place ear drops in would be low dose cortisone as well in addition to antibiotics orally which dont penetrate ears enough as do topicals directly applied.
Temaril-pQ: Our 1.5 year old golden retriever has been itching for a while now. the vet gave her temaril- which we gave her, but she was urinating all over the house, even in the bed! i have been giving her only one a day instead of three, which stopped the urinating in the house. but it hasn't stopped the itching only for the day, at night its back. my question is should we get more of this medicine, or should we try a spray for her flaky irritated skin? A: Since temaril p does have cortisone in it this can make some dogs urinate excessively. perhaps try good antihistamine script like amitryptylline from vet in conjunction with good fatty acid supplement like brite coat xs as well as prozyme added to food from 1800petmeds. try 1800petmeds aloe vera and oatmeal conditioner and shampoo every few days as well
