Tick control

[rainydays]

Another tick season is upon us in this part of the world. Last year I used K9advantix on my young lab. It did kill ticks, but only after they were embedded in her. It this common for this product. Frontline plus looks to be a good product. For you folks that have to deal with tick control, what are your thoughts on these products? Any other suggestions on how to control ticks. Thanks for your info.
