   YEp, as can I.  It worked even here until recently, but,   
   according to my vet just recently even frontline users have   
   found themselves going back to the drawign board.

   I'm not sure what tehse were, but two pills, because of the   
   size of my dog of course.   
   I didn't know about the place that advertises on television, as I don't see   
   those ads, as I don't bother with a   
   television.   
      
      
   Indeed the skeeters can also be a problem.  Our town   
   government sprays about twice a week for them, but they're   
   still a concern.   
      
      
   I warned Bob by voice telephone yesterday to keep an eye on   
   his many dogs in case his favorite preventative began to   
   fail up his way as well.  HE passes along greetings to his   
   usual Fido friends.   
      
   Regards,   
              Richard
