I brought my dog to the vet yesterday, because he had bumps all over his back, and he has a flea allergy. The vet recommended Activyl, because it supposedly prevents fleas from biting. The saliva from the flea causes the reaction. The vet said that my dog needed Activyl, because the other flea meds only kill a flea once it bites, and then it would be too late. Here are the active ingredients of Activyl:
Indoxacarb: (S)-methyl 7-chloro-2,5-dihydro-2-[[(methoxycarbonyl)[4-trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]amino]-carbonyl]indeno[1,2-e][1,3,4]oxadiazine-4a(3H)-carboxylate
Problem is, my moms house is like flea infested. She has dogs and indoor/outdoor cats that all have fleas. I read on google that permethrin, the active ingredient in K9Advantix, is also used in horse sprays. I was thinking that I could get that spray and use it on in the house and on my mom's pets. Then I could put my dog on the Activyl, because my mom's animals aren't allergic like my dog is.
I'm not sure if something would go wrong with using the two chemicals together. I plan to spray my room, my bed, dog's bed, anything that could have fleas/eggs.
Please help me. I can't afford for my dog to get bit again! He's on steriods right now, so by the time he is off (in a few days), I need this controlled.
