Hartz products are available over the counter and are not carried by most vets. Even if your vet carries the products it is unlikely that he would accept coupons. Hartz flea treatments are available at most major retailers and you can use the coupon there.

Your veterinarian should have the appropriate medication to treat for fleas. It is best to check with him/her before buying any over the counter flea treatments. Some OTC flea medications can be potentially toxic to the animal (ie: Hartz brand).

Most pet stores sell Frontline and Advantage. While these are not approved for use in ferrets, it is safe to use the smallest kitten dose on ferrets. About one drop per pound of ferret will suffice.

As long as your children don't get it in their mouths, it would be fine. I would say, if they're 4+ it should be ok.
Is hartz flea and tick poisonous to toddlers?
All commercial flea and tick preparations are insecticides. That is why they are applied on the backs of dogs, so the animal cannot lick and thus ingest the product. For safety's sake, I would not let a toddler handle, kiss or lie beside a dog being treated with this medication. Consult your veterinarian for more information.
Can dogs get fleas in the state of Nevada?
Dogs can get fleas just about anywhere. All it takes is one, and before you know it, they're all over the place. On top of it, there's more than one kind of flea. Where I live, we have the common flea and what we call a `sand flea`, which is worse than the regular ones. I'd suggest a regular treatment of something like Hartz 4 in 1, which is an easy to apply monthly treatment. Where I live, it's quite effective.
When can i retreat my dog with flea drops after the first dose fails?
Not until 30 days after initial treatment. Too often can poison the animal; ensure that you are using correct dose for animals size; use quality products (aka not Hartz or Wal-Mart purchases).
