Purple or orange cow tags is the way to go...Iv always used a whole tag on a grown dog..I seen someone said use a 1/4 of one he might be on to something..either way they work!!!!

bayer makes a product called bayer advantage it's the same insecticide as bayer tree and shrub in the same percentage just doesn't have the fertilizer in it that's what we use with good results . i'm not fond of putting fertilizer on dogs . remember all this stuff soaks in the dogs skin and exits trough the liver and kidneys . around the kennel i use permethrin spay mixed with MARTINS I.G. REGULATOR that doesn't let any flea or tick that touches it reach adult stage and bite and lay eggs . good luck out there .

Bayer Tree and Shrub
We have used Bayer Tree and Shrub on dogs when we have a flea problem and it knocks them dead fast, but it has Never helped against ticks. The only problem with the Bayer T & S is now a lot of stores are selling the new version Bayer Tree and Shrub + Feed. DO NOT USE on your dogs. It can and will cause loss of hair and other problems. They still make the version without the fertilizer and other companies are selling the same ingredients in their tree and shrub insect killer so you can still get it without fertilizer. It doesn't do anything to control the fly population either, but it works wonders on fleas
Bayer also makes their Bayer Complete Insect killer that has Imidacloprid in it as well as B~Cyfluthrin( active ingredient in Tempo) which is great for soil and turf to keep down ticks, ants, fleas, plus it controls grubs....but don't use it on your dogs as Tempo is NOT recommended.
As a side note Imidacloprid is highly deadly to bees which may or may not be a good thing depending on who you are

i tried frontline plus here,, doesntnt stop the wood ticks found 2 on the dog after second application,, so someone on here mentioned permethrin,, got it at tractor supply. use it on my clothes and the dog,, keeps everything away that flies or crawls and at only a mix of 35-1
(Spalding fly preditors ) type this in at google.com and it shoud pop up these fly preditors come in a bag and they hatch and kill your flys then die all you do is sprincle them around primitor off your dogs cattle horses ect ..
