Using advantage and adam's flea spray togetherQ: My dog is on advantage, however, she is still scratching and obviously this does not do the trick completely. is it okay to use adams flea and tick spray (which i have had at least a couple of years, so i hope it is still good...) even though the adv. is still in her system? thank you! A: There would be a danger of overdosing your pet. you might want to add a flea and tick collar.
