Ordering Flea Medications online - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a website to order flea meds from? My hubby was looking online this weekend and there are so many - do you stick to a company based in the US? There are quite a few based in Australia - does anyone have any experience with them?

you need to stkc to well knowwn sites because people have posted on here about ordering onlinee and getting stuff that is not the real thing or even dangerous. IF I order online, I go with Drs.fostersmith.com But usually, I can get it at my vet for close to the same by the time you pay shipping charges.

I ordered from a place in Australia and had horrible service. It was something like Vet Shoppe, I think. It is worth it to pay a bit more and buy from a U.S. based business. At least if you have problems, you have some recourse with the Better Business Bureau or the State's Attorney General etc.

I do a price search on line and print out the lowest price I find. Then I take it to my vet and he matches the price. Check with your vet to see if they do this in your area. you would be surprised at how many will match the prices.
