Hi John,

I just got a Foster & Smith catalog and there is something called Bio Spot for fleas, ticks, & mosquitos. Anyone hear of that or have an opinion? Kfamr have you tried that? It's a monthly topical like Advantage and Frontline.

For Advantage and perhaps with all the topicals you would have to reapply after a bath. I'm not sure if plain water without shampoo would wash away the flea protection - my dog isn't a swimmer so I never thought of it.

There is also a pill called Program but I prefer the topicals. Of course I'd prefer to not use any chemicals but I haven't found a natural remedy that works.

This Foster & Smith catalog I have mentions PetEducation.com as having info plus of course ask your vet.
