[Njagdu] flea and tick pill instead of front line?

[National Association Of Guide Dog Users]

Tracy alluded to, Front Line is not effective here in Florida, so we are Using Confortis. It is very effective and easy to give; however, it doesn't seem to be as palatable as Heart Guard, so we need to poke it down or give it in cheese or some other food. Also, it is a good idea to not give both an oral flea preventative and heart worm meds on the same day. We wait two days to give them the other. HTH!

It sounds so much easier to just pop the dog a pill rather than putting the front line on their backs.  Is this a safe alternative for our dogs?
