FleasQ: I have 2 dogs who go out as well as inside. i have 3 cats that are strickly indoor. my dogs seemed to have brought fleas into the house after having been flea free for 6 years in several states. i have a 6 month old baby and am unsure how to treat all of the animals as well as the house without hurting my baby. i have only seen 3 fleas, but where there are 3, there is sure to be more. can you please tell me how to go about correcting this problem? A: You can give your pets, both dogs and cats, a product called program. this is given by mouth, once a month, instead of using a topical product.
How much worm medicationQ: I have a dog that is over 50 lbs and i bought the erliworm tabs, it says 1 tablet for every 4 lbs. so that means i need to give my dog 12 tablets? mary A: That is correct. however, you can mix the chewable tablets in with your pets food for ease of administration.

16yr old cat very illQ: Hi, my 16 year old cat is very ill right now. i noticed her walking unsteady yesterday and now she won't even get up. she has tinted blood in her urine which leads me to believe she has a very bad urinary tract infection. i've contacted my vet, but he is out of town. he told me to give her some honey because she hasn't been eating or drinking at all and is very weak. after i spoke with him, i realized that i have antibiotics from last month that were for my dog. i can't stand to see her suffer, here is the name that is on the bottle it is abbreviated smztmp i also have a bottle of rimadyl 100mg. right now anything to help, can i give my cat a very small amount of either one of these to help ease her discomfort? thank-you A: Don't give rimadyl to cats. you could try 120 mg of the smz once daily but this antibiotic can occasionally cause side effects in cats as well as cause excessive drooling so i would stay away from unless at direction of your vet. really needs exam and blood work as could have other issues going on causing blood in urine like kidney failure.

Pill comparisionQ: I am trying to compare the various pill meds for fleas and ticks . the cost of the treatment is one of the things i'm considering along with how effective it is . A: I am not familiar with a pill that is effective against fleas and ticks. if you want a tablet, you can use program. however, this medication is for fleas only. as long as your pet is a dog, you could then use a preventic collar for tick control.
