Should I use Hartz UltraGuard® on my pet all year round? Or just during flea and tick season?
The Companion Animal Safety Council recommends that pets should be treated year round with a flea and tick product. Fleas and ticks may be dormant during freezing winter months but can still be active on days above freezing temperatures. These parasites utilize leaf litter and even snow to provide insulation in the extreme cold.

Can I stop using flea control once the fleas are gone?
This is not recommended. Once an infestation is under control it is important to continue using a flea and tick control product to prevent re-infestations in the future. Although adult fleas are not seen on the animal, the sub-adult stages (eggs, larvae, pupae) may be developing within the house (carpet, upholstery). To ensure full protection against all life stages of fleas Hartz recommends treating all affected areas of your pet’s surroundings.
How does my dog get ticks?
Typically, dogs are most susceptible to ticks while outside. Ticks are found in yards, dog parks, hiking trails and anywhere they can quest for a host on blades of grass or vegetation. Ticks can be brought into the home by pets and humans, so it is important to do regular body checks after spending time in a high risk area.

While reactions to topical drops are rare, they might result in mild skin irritation. It is important to observe your pet for the first 24 hours and contact your veterinarian if you note any abnormal reactions.
I have an elderly dog, is he too old for a topical flea and tick treatments and, if so, what do you recommend I should do now to control his fleas?

Should I be concerned about mosquitoes biting my dog?
