Thanks Sheree e4 I shall get some Frontline spray for the pups and try the Permoxin or Proban, whatever I can get for my boys!

I am haveing a big problem with ticks atm. They are not the paralasis ones, just brown dog ticks but are very annoying. I have no experience with them previous to this as we are not in a tick area....however I got some rescue pups in from up north a couple of months ago and we seem to have imported them.

I tried frontline.....did not work. Got Advantix....seemed to do the trick but after only 3 wks and 2 days my dogs are covered in them again. I have bathed them and re-did the advantix this weekend and will apply it fortnightly from now on. Will that be enough? I have been reading about Proban and Permoxin....can anyone tell me how effective they are and if I can use it on young pups.(I have 5 rescues here at the moment that are only about 5-6 wks).

Any advice you can give will be most appreciated.....help!
