Review of 1800petmeds

Who would have thought my dog would get fleas? And I just cringed when our seven year old blurted out to the crossing guard at school, "Ginger has fleas!!!"

If you own a pet and take them for walks, your baby isn't immune. Fleas are carried by more than dogs and cats. Bunnies, squirrels, and all sorts of other varmint carry the little pests and leave them in the grass to find another host.

When this happened in our household, we wanted nothing to do with chemical treatments. But I found one that works well, and I'll have another post on a great finding that came about with my tests on Sergeants Sentry Natural Defense.

So I just saw Betty White, bless her heart, on TV, promoting 1-800-PetMeds. This is a website and an 800 number where you can get just about anything for your pet - dog, cat, or otherwise. She even held up a package of flea medication for dogs.

1-800-PetMeds does a great job with prescriptions and some hard to find pet treatments. I found that they answered their phone promptly and best of all - their prices are good. And if you look at the site now - you'll find there is a big discount on your shipping.

With the Internet - you probably won't have to pay sales tax.

Now be careful, because the way the site is designed, you'll get an "upsell" on every item you add to your cart. This means they recommend other items in the same category. That's fine - just be aware. It's sort of like Amazon.com - recommending other books in the same genre.

For each item, they give complete detail on the ingredients and you'll know what you're buying.

My one gripe with them is that they don't carry enough "natural" products for dogs. For example, they have none of Sergeants "Sentry" line of natural flea killers. But you will most likely find something that will work for you if you shop around the site.

I love the way you can see reviews from others who have purchased the product you're looking at. That's reassuring and will give you the good and the bad.

Have fun in your research! Here's the link: 1-800-PetMeds
