We recommend amazon for K9 Advantix, as they offer great deals on a range of flea control products.

K9 Advantix II Flea & Tick Control

Dealing with fleas and ticks is paramount for most pet owners, but there are more external pests that can be troublesome (or even downright dangerous in certain cases).  Advantix tackles the widest range of external parasites, of any leading spot on flea treatment.

Fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, biting flies and lice are all controlled using Advantix II.  And, whilst other flea control products deal with those pests in direct contact with our pets, Advantix II repels them too, so fewer ever come into contact with your dog.

Advantix II v Frontline Plus

You can see from the illustration below how much more K9 Advantix II will do for your pet dog:

Whether you need all this extra protection, will depend on where you live.  For many pet owners a more simple formula such as Frontline Plus for dogs will be more than adequate.

Like Frontline Plus, Advantix II does not simply kill the biting adult fleas that cause most of the concern.  Immature fleas are also targeted, using an insect development inhibitor which ensures juvenile fleas do not develop into the adults which breed and bite.

But if mosquitoes and biting flies are problematic in your region, or if they are known to harbour diseases such as Leishmaniasis.  Of course even if such insect borne diseases are unknown where you are, the presence of biting flies can be both stressful and problematic, since pain and infection are not uncommon when bitten regularly by these annoying parasites.

The ability of Advantix II to prevent flying insects from biting is high.  However, you should not consider its use as a protection against the heartworm parasite (passed from mosquitoes), since you can never ensure 100% of mosquito bites will be prevented.  An additional heartworm medicine such as Heartgard Plus should be part of your monthly parasite control regime.

K9 Advantix v Advantix II

As a previous user of K9 Advantix you may be wondering how Advantix II differs.  Well, it is simply the addition of the insect growth inhibitor that now prevents any flea eggs, larvae or pupae from being able to develop any further.  Since these juvenile insects will now die before they are able to become the adult fleas which bite and breed, you will bring future potential flea outbreaks under control, as well as dealing with the current problem.

Bayer are no longer marketing original Advantix in the US.  There will of course be a period of time when stocks of the original formula remain in circulation, but slowly it will become impossible to buy, as stores new stocks are replenished with new K9 Advantix II.

If you would like to save even more money on your pets flea treatments, generics might be the answer.  We now have two versions of generic Frontline Plus available to buy online:

Fiproguard Plus

Produced by Sergeant’s Pet Care Products, Fiproguard Plus was released in May 2011.  For the best prices we suggest amazon who are now stocking a wide range of flea control products at extremely low prices.

Pronyl Plus

Rather confusingly, our second generic Frontline Plus product is also produced by Sergeant’s.  This time it is called Pronyl Plus.  And, you can check out the even better prices on this one here.

Pronyl Plus was released a little later than Fiproguard Plus, and both are pretty much interchangeable.

Fiproguard Plus v Pronyl Plus v Frontline Plus?

The big question then is which product do you buy?  Well, to be perfectly honest, as far as your pet is concerned it makes no difference at all.  Both generic Frontline Plus products, and the original have the same volume and quality of the key active ingredients.  So the results of using any one of them will be the same.

The reasoning behind the somewhat confusing decision to produce not one, but two generic flea treatments, is that they are targetting a slightly different audience, being sold in different types of stores.

You will usually see Fiproguard Plus in specialist pet supply stores whereas Pronyl Plus will be a more mass market product stocked in large grocery stores, drug stores and multi site retailers.  Perhaps this is why, for their launch we are seeing Pronyl Plus being offered at special offer prices around 40% less than the Fiproguard Plus!

Whilst discounts are being offered we strongly suggest choosing the generic Frontline Plus products.  After all they offer the same protection against biting insects, yet are surprisingly light on your pocket.  In the past we have been wary of generic Frontline Plus products since they simply haven’t offered a significant saving over the branded original.  But it now looks like Seargant’s are trying very hard to create a generic version of Frontline Plus that offers enough of a cost saving to make it an attractive purchase.

Generic Frontline Plus (both Fiproguard Plus and Pronyl Plus) are available in various pack sizes, for cats and dogs.  Be sure to order the product designed for the type and weight of animal to be treated.  You can find out more about how to use this topical flea treatment, and what it actually does at our Frontline Plus page.

Leaks No More is a natural way to treat certain forms of urinary incontinence in cats and dogs.

An all natural formula with no known side effects it can prove very helpful for owners of “leaky” animals.

Though sadly, not able to alleviate all types of feline or canine urinary incontinence it can help in many instances.   Homeopet Leaks No More contains five active ingredients to deal with five different causes of urinary leakage, particularly common in older animals and following some surgery.

or read on to find out more about this useful pet supplement…

Currently prices are under half that being charged on the Homeopet own web-site, which surprised us to say the least.  Though we always aim to provide the best priced pet meds online we didn’t think we could find a deal quite that goo.

Leaks No More Ingredients

This formula is aimed at only certain types of urinary incontinence.  If your dog or cat’s problems are old-age or fear based, or following being spayed or neutered the product could be of great help.  For other forms of incontinence you may need a veterinary prescribed medication instead.  These tend to come with more chance of side effects so opting for a natural formula when suitable is recommended.  Leaks No More is designed to help strengthen the sphincter muscles that control urination.

Each of the five active ingredients targets a particular cause of the problem:

1. Old age related incontinence is dealt with by Alumina (oxide of aluminum).
2. To tackle frequent urination in small quantities Cantaris (Spanish fly) is included.
3. Incontinence that is caused by excitement, occurs as the animal falls asleep or has begun following surgery is tackled with Causticum.
4. For relatively large volumes of clear watery urine often associated with fear, Gelsemium Sempervirens (yellow jasmine) is included.
5. To deal with pets that leak during sleep Plantago Major (plantain) is added to the formula.

The makers suggest that the product may help animals that are experiencing incontinence due to other causes too, but in general the ingredients are only really designed to help with tightening the sphincter muscle that controls flow.  This tends to lose strength following surgery and as the animal ages.

Using Homeopet Leaks No More

The makers suggest that the best way to give this remedy is to place the drops directly into the mouth of your pet, so that it is absorbed quickly into the mucus membrane.   We have had great success with using  the drops in a far easier way.  Adding to a small bowl of milk is a much easier way to ensure the pet is not stressed and still gets their daily dose.

Again this is one of those medications where an initial relatively high dose is needed.  Then when improvements are seen you can reduce the dosage to a maintenance level.  In fact, if you do not reduce the dose you can see symptoms return.

The initial dosage (to be given three times a day) is as follows:

• animals from 1 to 20lbs – 5 drops
• animals from 21 to 60 lbs – 10 drops
• animals from 61 to 100 lbs – 15 drops
• animals 100 lbs – 20 drops
• animals weighing less than 1 lb should have 2 drops added to their drinking water each day.

Once a beneficial reaction is seen the frequency of dosing should be reduced to twice and eventually once daily.  If an improvement in condition is not followed by a reduction in the dosage a return of the symptoms may follow overuse of the drops.  This can be alleviated by stopping treatment for three days and then starting again.

Cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters and pot-bellied pigs can all be successfully treated using the dosing guide above.  Smaller animals such as mice, budgies and guinea pigs may all be treated with drops added to their water, read the pack instructions for full guidelines.

If you are adding the drops to food or water you may find the animal does not like the alcohol smell (this is used as a preservative).  You can try adding to milk instead or simply allow the alcohol odor to dissipate for 20 minutes before presenting the food or water to your pet.

Considerations

The product itself has not been shown to have any side effects or interactions with other medications.  Some animals are sensitive to homeopathic preparations.  These will show with one dose.  So give Leaks No More only one time on the first day so that you can spot any sensitivity and cease further treatment.  This type of sensitivity is to homeopathic remedies in general, and very rare in animals or humans.

Leaks No More Best Price

For reliable service and cheap Leaks No More just click the link to our current low priced vendor highlighted at the top for a variety of pack sizes at the lowest prices online.  At the time of publishing, the prices were less than half that being quoted by the Homeopet web-site itself, so you can see we have again found some great deals on all your cat and dog medications.
