Was wondering if anyone is using Promeris flea and tick medicine for their greyhound, and is so, how are they doing with it?
Vanish seems extremely lethargic for 24 hours and just plain funky. The smell is horrible and that in itself is would make anyone ill. It gives me a headache.
I'm thinking of speaking to her vet to get her back on her original flea and tick medication. Would love to hear if anyone else is using this product.
Thanks

I haven't used ProMeris on Sahara. There is a story going around about possible side effects of Promeris. Snopes.com says it is undetermined.

Disregarding the above story, I wouldn't use it again if it gives you a headache and makes your dog lethargic.

I've never heard of it, but doesn't sound like I would want to use it. I use very little flea and tick stuff on my dogs-I might use Frontline once a year.
