Well, today was Sunshine's yearly checkup/vaccinations appt. We get there, and she got her vaccinations and then the vet did her physical. Well, she has fleas, worms, ear mites, matted fur, a broken tooth..............it was neverending!! So, we got everything in order, she was put on Revolution to take care of all her problems, and the vet shaved her to get rid of the matted fur.
My question is this: She just in the past few months has become an outdoor cat and up until now had NO health issues. They gave me revolution for her and for my other cat at home so I could treat them both. It was $30 for 3 tubes. What I am wondering is if I keep her in from now on ( which I think I'll do, obviously the outside world is not aggreeing with her ), do I need to continue to treat her w/ Revolution each month? Or can I just treat her this time to kill everything off, and then assume she won't get reinfested?
By the way, they treated my other cat since they live together, and they said she probably also had mites, and fleas. Do you think that one dose will get rid of everything, or should I perhaps do 2 doses each just to be sure?
Thanks guys!
