Program for fleas

Posted By: tired fingers on 2007-11-08
In Reply to: Does anyone use Program flea meds for their pets? sm - animal lover

I have not heard of Program, but I use Frontline. I have not had NY problems with it. My vet charges $15 for it, but I can also get it at our local Humane Society for $10. With 4 cats, it adds up to quite a bit of money. You might want to try that.

Fleas
I have used Advantage in the past but in the last year I noticed that it was not really working.   Apparently, the fleas are becoming resistent to the product.  Frontline still seems to work very well.  I found this out when I googled about my flea problem and also my mother-in-law was a vet tech.  She confirmed that Advantage has become less effective.  I find the best prices for flea products are on Ebay.
fleas
I use Revolution, got it w/o a script from Canada and it kills worms and earmites too. Love it. Cats seem to be happy about it, too.
FLEAS
Vacuum AT LEAST every three days. I was paranoid that I had them and vacuumed every day. Dump the vacuum canister or bag as the fleas can get out if you just put it back in the closet or wherever you store it. Also fleas will get into the grooves of hard wood or in the linoleum--so vacuum everywhere. I think it takes 3 days for the eggs to hatch.
Advantage for cats/fleas

Has anyone found a source for purchasing Advantage at a very good price? I have 7 inside cats and 4 outside. I would be willing to buy this in bulk if the price was more reasonable.


Also, has anyone used something other than Advantage with good luck.


Thank you.


Fleas!!! help?? Any less toxic solutions? sm

We have three dogs - two outside and one inside.  About two months ago my husband "babysat" his friend's two labs.  Apparently they had fleas and infested our dogs kennel's with them.  We have tried every flea shampoo we can find and cleaned their sleeping areas thoroughly and sprayed for fleas...but they keep coming back.  And now our inside dog has gotten them....we keep bathing him with flea shampoo as well.  But now - the worst!!!  They are in our house! So we have used flea powder for the carpet and washed everything and sprayed what cannot be washed or vacuumed. I feel like our whole house is toxic.  And I am not convinced we are done with these little critters!!  My daughter actually went to school the other day with flea bites on her (all bugs love her)!  The rest of us have not been bitten but have found one or two on us at times. Is there a solution??? Please help if you have any ideas!  Thanks


are you sure from mosquitoes? I thought from fleas...nm

I saw some program the other day on TV where the

The TV program (can't remember the name) said the kids today in America have it pretty rough and so for one day a year, Halloween, let them have some fun....


Y'all don't need to be reading PAGANISM into this holiday for toddlers/little kids as I believe 90% of the trick-or-treaters do not come from Pagan families......


Give the little ones a break, please! 


we are probably on different program...
I have very little problems with the program I use but we are not supposed to talk anything about MT work on the Gab board, per the rules, as I understand them.....
on what program?
nm
what email program are you using? nm
zzzz
Where do I enroll in that program?
  Do they provide the class materials????? 
Do you use an antivirus program? If so, what? sm

My McAfee ran out and I just wondered what you use.  I heard there are "free" antivirus programs you can download from the internet.  Anyone heard of that or tried it?


thanks


WW is a great program IMO (sm)
I lost 70 pounds on WW and have kept it off (up/down 10 depending on life). I believe this is one of the best programs because it gives you a very simple, almost subliminal, education about nutrition and allows you to eat just about anything in moderation.

Once one is emotionally and mentally ready to accept that lifestyle and dietary changes are necessary to lose weight (the biggest hurdle IMO), WW is really the smartest plan to follow. No fads, no prohibited food groups, etc.

I don't follow the plan currently, but what I learned and practiced for the 9 months it took me to lose 70 pounds (4 years ago), I'm pretty much programmed regarding portion control and how to undo the overdo... yeah... I'm in the process of undoing right now :-)

Good luck to you!!
Nursing program
I am 49 years old, have been an MT for 7 years and am thinking of going back to school for an RN degree.  Wonder what my chances of getting into the program are (I know there's always a waiting list, but of course that depends on the school one chooses too; I live in GA), and how long this all might take.....???  I made As and Bs in high school and aced the transcription program at a local 2-year technical college...................any thoughts?  Should I forget about it?  I don't want to be unreasonable, but having thoughts about doing something to make more money.  I have one child who is a senior in college and have 2 boys to put through college eventually, so more money sure would be nice.
good program
I used the program to sell my old house about 6 years ago. Now after 6 years in this house, definitely time to start up again because I am not thinned out from moving!

Just started again 2 months ago. I love how you start at the ceiling and work your way down to the floor, 15 minutes at a time. I love how my bathrooms are always "company clean" and my sink is shining. She is on youtube now and I used the holiday missions and it worked great for getting the christmas decorations put away! Can't say enough good things about it. I think they used to teach this stuff back in the old days for people who did not work outside of the home, but working inside of the home and not being able to keep the house clean was too frustrating! Baby steps work much better, like you said, so the dust quits calling my name!
In our area, there is a program called
"Mended Hearts".  I am not sure if this is nationwide, but there are volunteers that will come out who have had the surgery, and they talk about how far they've come.  Another option, I guess would be cardiac rehab, and I am wondering if that would lend some support as maybe he feels a little alone in his quest?  Best of luck and hope he finds his way soon. 
Weight Watchers is the best program
You can eat what you would cook every day, but it is the portion control.  I used this program after having both of my children as I gained close to 100 pounds with each pregnancy (too much bread and butter).  I have now stabilized, but still watch my portions.  I do believe the water and exercise are a very, very important part of Weight Watchers.  I did not feel deprived from sweets because as the other poster stated, the point system took care of that.  If you know you will indulge, you simply cut back on one of your meals.  I had a husband and two children to care for, but I still lost weight eating the same food that I served them, I just controlled my own portions.  Hope this helps.  Weight Watchers gets my vote. 
I'm trying to lose weight through the WW program
I started during the summer and kind of fell off of it. I'm trying to lose between 30-40 pounds. My daughter became a vegetarian about 4 months ago and she already lost 23 pounds. I like my meat so I won't go that route, but I'm trying to exercise a little bit every day and eat healthier. Good luck to you and everyone else trying to lose.
Fantastic! What a wonderful program that is. -nm

As part of an incentive program- sm
I get 12 cpl, but only after 1500 lines in one day, 11 cpl after 1000 lines. Believe me, it's incentive. It really starts to add up, but the best I've ever done is about 1980 lines in one day, once, a couple years ago. This week my goal is 1800, but it's turning out more like 1600.
I used the Medifast program. It worked wonderfully (sm)
I think the HMR is all liquid which is the difference with Medifast. With Medifast, you eat 5 of their meals (oatmeal, shakes, pudding, soup, or bars) and 1 meal you prepare of a protein and a vegetable. It was very easy to follow, I never felt hungry, and I lost over 60 pounds in 7 months. What I loved about this diet was I learned a whole lot about portion control.
if you work with Horizon program, please see message

I just started working with Horizon Radiology Manager program and having problems viewing my line count.  I was told by another MT that Java interfers with this program.  Does anyone else have problems with Horizon and Java?  I also have another job where I help out some and their program is Meditech and I think I need my java for that. 


Thanks for any info.


Does anyone use Program flea meds for their pets? sm
I have three dogs and a cat that I was using a topical flea med on. We got a new puppy last week and she had fleas. I washed her and got rid of them, but now have noticed a couple of fleas on the other dogs. Not a lot, but some. I have heard that the Program works better than the topical stuff and would like to try it, but it is rather expensive so I am looking for any input before I buy it.  Thanks!!
Mine has a bachelors and applied for MS program (sm)
he is three years older so was about the same age as me when he was going to do this. Thinks its alright for him. Our marriage is already very rocky. I feel like rather than deciding whether to divorce or not right now I should further my education instead.
I have Avast antivirus program, and it's free also. - NM

Have you ever heard of the Weigh Down Diet program? sm
It's not really a diet. It is a matter of changing the way you eat, not what you eat. Feel free to e-mail me and I'll give you some specifics.

Anyone know how to get started having a computer program made

I have an idea I have been thinking about for a while, a software program actually. I think it is a good idea but I have no idea where to begin to try to have it made and marketed.  If anyone knows I would really appreciate any advice you have.


 


Thanks!


I did read some stations not carrying the program
so perhaps offensive in some things? I did not watch. I think Sharon probably looks the best of all the family.
Son's HS grad program listed the "Class Moto."

Ugh!


In my school district they have a "schools of choice" program.
The kicker?? Your school has to participate. Our new Supe took it upon himself to unilaterally disembowel the "schools of choice" program. Our school district is not as bad as Detroit, but I think it is getting there.

He stated "the only way anybody is going to get out of my school district is to move." And of course with the housing market the way it is, who can afford to move?

We cannot afford to send our son to a private school either. And even if we did participate with Schools of Choice, you are responsible for your own ransportation.

So, the only other choice is a charter school, but then you have the same problem - you must provide your own transportation.

PS I live on the west side of Michigan.
Body For Life is a weight loss program that worked for me.

The book is full of ads for his foods. If you can read past the ads it has great advice. The journal is essential IMHO. It is nice to know exactly what you did that "worked" when you start to drop the pounds. I do Walk Away The Pounds for the aerobic exericise part.


Most libraries own the book. The ISBN# is 0007149670


 


St. Vincent De Paul Society is good. Volunteers administer the program.

attitude: going to the Christmas program with hate in your heart. More important you watch that,sm
than your kids still believe in a mythical fat man who brings presents. 
No experience with the program but definitely experience with the symptoms! nm
