What do you use to control fleas on your cats & dogs?
I put Hartz UltraGuard plus on both my dogs and cats a couple weeks ago, and it's done NOTHING to help with their fleas. What products do you use that will do a better job?
You're dead right - Hartz is useless! Please spread the word! It has also caused a lot of deaths.
Many pet store flea products are dangerous - and none work. The reason for this is that pet stores aren't licensed to sell the proper chemicals for flea treatment - anything you find in store is just going to be a basic pesticide that you can't expect to work, including Hartz - and Adams, and Biospot.
You can only find proper, safe flea treatments that work at vets; Frontline, Revolution, Advantage or Advocate. Please go and get some. You will probably have to spray your house as well, since this is where most of the fleas are living. Again, get something from a vets, not a pet store.

EDIT: DEFINITELY don't waste your time/money with a flea collar - most useless things in the world!
