Dog Flea & Tick Prevention
Fleas and ticks can inflict many serious diseases and illnesses on your dog such as lyme disease, anemia, tapeworm infections and severe itching. Unfortunately, the prevalence of these pesky creatures can make protecting your pup feel like a challenge, but with the proper flea and tick prevention products from Tractor Supply, you can help to ensure that your furry friend can stay safe.
Over-The-Counter (OTC) Vs. Prescription
Flea and tick medications come in two primary forms: over-the-counter or prescription. As always, consider consulting a veterinarian before purchasing either of these medications, as they can offer expert advice customized to your dog’s needs. That said, understanding the key differences between over-the-counter and prescription flea and tick treatments will help when deciding which treatment plan is best for your dog’s needs.
Over-the-Counter: Over-the-counter flea and tick treatments come in an array of forms including pills, shampoos, sprays and collars and are accessible to all on store shelves. If your pet is currently experiencing an infestation, OTC medication can provide a readily-available and fast-acting remedy to help kill fleas and ticks.
Prescription: Prescription flea and tick medications require a consultation with a vet and a written prescription. This kind of medication can provide your pet with a personalized treatment plan that is compatible with their physical needs and lifestyle. Most prescription treatments are seen as a preventative measure that are great for both repelling and killing fleas and ticks.
Topical vs. Oral Treatments
Not all dog flea and tick medications are administered the same. Some flea and tick medications are ingested orally, while others are applied to the animal’s fur. To create the best treatment plan for your dog’s needs, consider the key differences between topical and oral treatments.
Topical: Topical flea and tick treatments are easy to apply and can protect your pet by repelling and killing fleas and ticks for a month or more. Additionally, some topical treatments are water-resistant, so you can apply them without worrying about your dog getting wet in the rain or during a bath. Some topical treatments include collars, powders, sprays and shampoos.
Oral: Oral flea and tick treatments can be a long-lasting solution for your pet and are often found in either a chewable tablet or pill form. Chewable options can be easier for your dog to ingest, while pills quickly release and are often fast-acting. Oral medications are also water resistant and can offer heartworm protection for your pet.
