<p>Thanks Beth, I am going to ask my vet about this. We don't have to worry about fleas but due to our mild winter they are predicting a bad tick season here in MN.</p>

<p>We actually just tried this at the recommendation of our vet. Our Nutmeg is only six months old and this is the first flea and tick treatment we've used. We broke it up and mixed it with her food. She ate it as part of her evening meal. We kept a close eye on her for the next 24 hours. We didn't notice anything unusual and we didn't notice any of the side effects listed in the packaging. And, most importantly, the fleas are gone and the scratching is less. And, as we live in an area where…</p>

And, most importantly, the fleas are gone and the scratching is less. And, as we live in an area where there are ticks, we feel better that she's protected. Lastly, if you buy a 2-pack of the treatment, there's a $20 rebate offer. But, you have to buy the 2-pack vs. 2 single doses. Good luck</p> Holly makes some good points.…tag:mycorgi.com,2015-03-21:1150197:Comment:19101992015-03-21T22:41:26.019ZAnna Morellihttp://mycorgi.com/profile/AnnaMorelli
<p>Holly makes some good points. Did you check the Mercola sight for pets? They may have some feedback there.</p>

<p>Never heard of Bravecto but I give a monthly oral medication (Nexgard) to my dog that she tolerates well. I had initial misgivings, but the medicine is absorbed into their bodies either way. I worry more about it being new, but I would hope it is at least as safe as the topical treatments. The only thing that might concern me about Bravecto is the fact that it is a three month application and I am not sure how it is managed to last so long on the body, but I am not a vet.

<p>Never heard of Bravecto but I give a monthly oral medication (Nexgard) to my dog that she tolerates well. I had initial misgivings, but the medicine is absorbed into their bodies either way. I worry more about it being new, but I would hope it is at least as safe as the topical treatments. The only thing that might concern me about Bravecto is the fact that it is a three month application and I am not sure how it is managed to last so long on the body, but I am not a vet. The other concern for me is what might happen if it was not well-tolerated and there was a three month dose already administered. Then again, Sully has had a few allergies so I may be more concerned than most in that respect.</p>
