Flea collars for bun buns?

Agreed. Flea collars never work. You would have to use flea medication. Lily uses Revolution with flea and heartworm medicine in it. It treats everything except internal parasites. Roxy uses can't think of it, but ah well. Skye doesnt get flea medicine since she stays inside. I would treat ur carpet, yard, etc...

But arent flea collars a preventative...not a cure.

I wouldn't recommend using flea collars on any of your animals. They are a waste of money.

Flea collars only generally work in the area they are put on, which is the neck and head - your animals will get infested in every other area.

I got my kitty rom my aunt who rescued 7 of them. she had a flea collar on her, and she started to get real sick. come to find out it was from the flea collar!! I have never used them and never will. I use advantage on my dog and cat. and havent had a poblem. My mother in law used a store brand flea repellant and her cat got sick as well! so we both use advantage.

Ted could get very sick from licking the flea collar. Miss Hoppy has never had a problem with fleas, though she does sometimes go outside. She doesn't interact with other animals, though, as she is an "only child."
