Hello. There is no need to separate these two products. There are some heartworm products that should not be given within 2 weeks of some of tick & flea products such as Bravecto & Nexgard, but administering a dewormer will not cause a problem with your flea product.

Hello, & thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Technically, yes you can, but I recommend separating the 2 medications by a couple of hours, or even give one on one day & the other the next. This is just in case Rebel gets an upset tummy & vomits, you do not lose everything. Hope this helps. Take care.
