Sorry to hear about Khloe's situation. So just to be clear, we are a consultation service and do not provide personal veterinary care for people's pets. If you are seeking the care of a vet for your pet, I would recommend searching for local vets to your region and establishing a relationship with one, particularly with a new puppy. As far as flea/tick medications, there are many options that come in many different formulations ranging from topical, collars, orals, and injectable drugs. If a pet is heavily infested with fleas, typically we use a drug to kill all the live fleas first and follow that up with the preventative, whichever one you and your vet agree upon. In most instances, these drugs work quite different dependent upon your geographic location so this would once again be a discussion with your vet. The cost of the medication will largely depend upon which one you choose and where you end up obtaining it. Also, dependent upon the extent of the flea infestation, additional treatments may be suggested to get Khloe back on the right track. Hope this makes sense.
