Permethrin is a good product to kill fleas and ticks.
It is also a great product to kill your dog.
Several research studies has be proven that permethrin used on dogs will cause cancer in dogs.
I know a lot of people use it with respect and had good luck with it, but it just isn't worth it by taking years off your dog's life.
As some on here might know, I'm finishing up my Veterinary Doctor Degree in Naturapathy, so I try to go the natural route when I can. So I have went with an alternative on my dogs, they get Apple Cider Vinegar diluted 50/50 with water sprayed on the dogs and let dried before hunting, 1 tablespoon get's put in their water daily. Then I spray Skin So Soft all over them right off the tailgate, some people calls me crazy, but I don't have any ticks, fleas of mosquito problems.
I've even used Garlic with at most respect, because dogs can't go over a certain amount of garlic a day dependng on the weight.
I only do that in Major flea and tick season..
Most of you will be surprised what benefits Apple Cider Vinager has if you would just goggle it.
Thanks,
Take Care,
Jeremy Mollett

I know three guys that has tried ear tags.
They just put them on their collars.
1 guys don't done great, so word spread and the second guys dog done good for 2 weeks and started to quit eating and vomiting, so he took it off and his dog straightened right up. Thrid guy done it dog done the same as second guy, vomiting and not eating, but he didn't take it off. A week later the dog had constant seizures.
So, I would be skeptical about using them.
Thanks,
Jeremy Mollett

There are a lot of things that cause Cancer... Old age , diet soda , too much sun , tobacco , toilet paper , toothpaste , etc , etc , etc.

I agree Permethrin is POISON and should be used with caution, but the alternatives of flea/tick bitten dogs are not exactly healthy either , "ie" heartworms , Lime Disease , etc.

Where do you find data that states this ?
I havn't seen any conclusive evidence that people are "taking years off a dog's life" by using Perm as prescribed.

Bottom line folks, is use it with caution and use common sense.
