What a nightmare. [emoji30] I give my Archie Bravecto as it covers ticks as well and he’s always in the water or needing a bath so I was never convinced the Advocate would absorb properly. My Vet didn’t say anything about any adverse effects though, what concerns do they have about it’s use??
I hope you manage to get rid of the unwanted guests asap.

Bravecto‘s generally had very poor publicity in the media both here in Europe and in the US with reports of bad side effects including fits and death. Its very hard these days to know what to believe however as there always seem to be so many parties covering up, exposing, playing down or vastly exaggerating benefits and/or ill effects of all sorts of things especially in the competitive and lucrative pet industry. My vet gets really wound up about „the rubbish people read on the internet“ and was maybe right, who knows
,when I questioned Bravecto but then some vets don’t appreciate being questioned either, so its a tough call. There‘s been lots of discussions on COL about flea, worm and tick treatment with lots of strong and valid although conflicting opinions. I don‘t think there‘s a „one treatment suits all answer“ our situations vary vastly, some dogs have lots of contact with other pets, cats etc., others like mine are more likely to pick up something from wild life so the risks, prevention and treatment are all very personal. Thousands use Bravecto with no ill effects at all, I haven‘t tried it but I know quite a few people who have, so although there are always some risks with most treatments, I think we have to keep things in perspektive, weigh up the real individual risks and then treat accordingly.
