Dog on Apoquel: What flea/tick protection won't irritate her skin?

Question

Lola is being treated with Apoquel for her allergy. Can she use Seresto collar? As she is a dog w/ skin issues I'm afraid she will develop a skin reaction with it. Or do you recomend Bravecto instead? Im not sure what to give her and she just got over ehrlicchia (frontline didnt work on her) so tick protection is super important. She used to use Revolution but we stopped cause she was developing a rash on the application spot. Pet's info: Dog | French Bulldog | Female | spayed | 2 years old | 20.3 lbs

Either medication (Seresto or Bravecto) can be used. Since Lola is suffering from skin issues I would recommend Bravecto or Nexgard. Both of these are working very well. The Bravecto will even work against mites.
