Congratulations on your new dog! I like Revolution if you are looking for a topical product. It consistently works well and is well tolerated. If you like the idea of an oral product better, I like Trifexis (it’s another all in one product). Sometimes though the pets can smell the Trifexis and they won’t eat it. In that instance, I like Simparica and Interceptor. My personal preference is oral products. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

The small dog dose should be sufficient when she is borderline between small and medium. You should also treat all bedding, sleeping and resting areas with an insecticidal household flea spray as 95% of the flea burden is present as eggs and larvae in the environment and only 5% are adults on your pet. Be sure to treat all in contact animals and treat with a dewormer active against tapeworms as these can be transmitted by fleas

It is always recommended to use caution when using these products on a pregnant pet. Although the package states it contains the same ingredients as Advantix II (which is labeled as safe for use in pregnant dogs), this box has the following warning on it: "As with any product, consult your veterinarian before using this product on debilitated, aged, pregnant or nursing animals." Frontline and Revolution are options and are both safe to use on pregnant dogs.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! The Advantus flea pill is once daily. This medication is best used to help kill what is on the dog. I wouldn't use it to prevent fleas as it is expensive to give once daily long term. Once a month Nexgard and Simparica are less expensive and are only given once a month. Also Bravecto is one tablet every 3 months and is about $50 every 3 months. I would spend your money on one of those products. The flea life cycle is 21 days so you would have to give the Advantus daily for at least 3 weeks. But once you stop there is nothing preventing more fleas to jump back on him. I hope this helps!

I'm not sure if they do or not - in the United States, it's available at most pet stores and even some large, "general" type stores like Walmart. I would suggest calling or visiting your nearest pet store and/or any large grocery stores in your area to see if they have it :)
