For areas with cold winters, dogs and cats may have a few months of respite each year. Regardless, it is important for pet parents to give their pet flea and tick prevention and treatment regularly as part of a complete program to keep pets and the environments they live in clean and healthy. Please consult a veterinarian for additional recommendations.
