I would love for them to make something to keep the flies away that wouldn't be so harmful to dogs and family members lord knows the dogs would be happy! I too during hot summers when the grass around the kennels kinda go grey I will spot a tick or 2 in the kennels and even fleas but they dont become a problem they move on.....normally the house and then I hear it from my better half its kinda funny when we are scratching and the dogs arnt.....lol
But I truely believe that they are passing through they never are around longer than a few days then my wife stops grumbling and its buisness as uusual at the hypa house.
I have been working on dogs here locally for years im no expert either but have seen ivomec clear up the worst looking dogs . Usually the owner needs cleaning up b4 the dog.
The one I do know is once your dog is well into infestation of heart worms you ARE sending it to the grave when administrating ivomectin and that normally happens when someone acquires a dog from someone who didnt start the dog on a regimen early in life.
Thanks

Wannabe hunters I had a hunter pull up next to me at 7-11 one morning and ask me if I new a particular hunter and I told him yea I did he went on to tell me how many pigs he caught with this guys and went into detail hunts with him. When he left my son looked up at me and asked do you know him and I said never met the man in my life then why was he saying he hunted with you.

Thanks for that post I have never had a flea and tick problem in my kennels and I use ivomectin religiously. I also do NOT spray or bath my hounds . Be it may they are still shiny coated healthy and worm, tick, and flea free.
You also CAN use ivomectin on dogs younger than 6 months old to rid Gastric worms but the only worm it dosnt effect is tape. Wd here use the cannondon wormer for the tape.

Ivomec does not repel or keep ticks from attaching to dogs. There are no properties in Ivomec that work against ticks, nor fleas for that matter. Years and years, myself and others around me have given Ivomec once a month as a heartworm preventative, but it does not repel or kill fleas and ticks, that I know for sure. I've heard a couple folks here and there that are under that misconception, but it is indeed
Sorry but I respectfully disagree.

I know that is a side effect but if administerd properly the bennifts out weigh the risk. All you need is a small amunt to control fleas and ticks. But a little more than that to control gastric parasites 1cc of ivomec once a month is all you need. Heart gaurd has ivomectin in it but a very small dose something like.0025%. One thing ivomec is known for is throat cancer so dilute it with water when shooting down throats which to me is best way of administration. Injection works for cattle but dogs are not cows. So the chance of intravenous administration is high.
To me personaly ivomec is the best thing that happened to dogs. Can even cure some manges under a different regiment of administration
