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.

Great question! There are so many products it can be hard to navigate. If you are already using advantage multi for fleas and heart worm prevention there are several options you could add in for tick control. If you like collars you could try the Preventic collar (different ingredients than seresto). https://m.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=1254 Alternatively you could discuss using one of the oral flea and tick preventatives (nexgard or simparica) staggered 2 weeks from the advantage multi. https://m.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=9547+29385+28648&pcatid=28648

You have a few options. If you want an all in one product, try Trifexis. Otherwise you will two separate products. You might try Simparica (fleas/ticks) and Interceptor (heartworm/intestinal worms). I also recommend to have Sparky's stool checked for worms in case that was a round worm. For that parasite, pets are often given bolus dewormings since people can get that worm. That will clear up the infection faster.
