Pet Forum / Mammals / Rabbits / July 2008Flea treatment for dogs - safe for bunnies
I was just wondering what brand flea treatment I could use on Roscoe that would not harm the bunnies. I want to start something on him soon to avoid fleas in the house if I can. Thanks.

Lisa, Hershey, Boo Boo, Louise & Sharkey (Thelma, Wendy & Cartman FTB) Revolution is not labeled for ticks tho. It can prevent ticks for up to 3 weeks. But the treatment is only to be given every 4 weeks. I don't see why a regular flea treatment can't be used for him. i find it highly unlikely that the buns would lick the dog at the nape of his neck. Certainly try revolution, and see if you have any tick problems. Perhaps even get the lyme vaccince since you are up there in CT! Ronie >Revolution is not labeled for ticks tho.

The vet offers Frontline & Advantage. Advantage is flea and tick. I think you're right Ronie - no bun is going to lick the doggie's neck. Lisa, Hershey, Boo Boo, Louise & Sharkey (Thelma, Wendy & Cartman FTB) Don't use Frontline!!!!! It is a known killer of Rabbits!

It's just so poisonous. Why take the chance when there there so many alternatives. Maybe if the dog was already rudely infested, I might consider Frontline then, but not as a preventative. Over kill. I was thinking about you & Rufus today. Hope you're feeling a little better. God bless!
