Can you put two flea and tick killers on the same pet?
No. If it is the dosage for your dog's size or body weight, do not double the flea/tick killers since this can be toxic for the dog. If the dog is badly infested, you can get pills from the vet called Cap Star, which will kill all fleas on the dog within 24 hours. After that, you can then put a single size/dose flea/tick killer on the dog to kill any eggs the fleas may have laid before they were killed by the pill (Cap Star).
