I feel like I was scammed!

A few days ago my sister in law shared me another kind of anti tick drop. I was amazed by it because it's small and it cost half the price of that frontline, that I bought four. I tried it to one of the dogs last night but some how it only removed few ticks. Sadly, it doesn't work either right away or not at all. maybe it had something to do with how I pour the med because I used a syringe. If it works though, I still have one left for next month..Otherwise, I go back using frontline again.

Frontline is tried and tested for us so we do not use other brands.

I only use frontline. I don't think that they sell other kinds in the store I usually visit.

It sounds like Frontline would be better than the cheap one you got.

Hello @just4him Yeah I guess I learned my lesson about using these, maybe the one I got was not effective.

Frontline is still the best. I know how expensive that Frontline in Pinas that is why I always brought Frontline home from Germany. It is cheaper here than in Pinas.

@Letranknight2015 I donĀ“t know anymore. I just remember saying a few years ago that Frontline in the Philippines vet where I brought Angus, was 4 times expensive than in Germany.

@Letranknight2015 If that one does not work right now you know why it was cheaper. I am glad you have backup if this does not work for you.

Yeah it sucks @Hannihar It's sad because I thought I could save money at the same time give them proper anti tick maintenance per month. I was wrong.

@Nakitakona The one in the picture is what I used this month. I was thinking of using front line next month, but looking at them today, the med seems to be working.

@Letranknight2015 Could it be ordered online? I plan to use it to Choey and Spot for they get ticks too.

@Letranknight2015 I thought it's frontline that you're using.

Maybe the drop only works for certain breed of dog?

Hello @JohnKu I took a long at the dogs, it seems to be working..maybe next time I will make sure that every drop goes to the skin and not their hair.

@Letranknight2015 I see. Do the drops come with instruction manual of some sort? All should be explained in there if there's one.

@Letranknight2015 people in the past used to claim they have extracted oil from snake's body. It was supposed to cure all sorts of ailments.
