My dog still has ticks after natural remedy. Can I use Frontline now?

Question

Hello! We used a natural tick remedy (the one sold at petco) and she keeps getting ticks! Can I give her Frontline or do I have to wait a month? We put the stuff on her on Sunday and she has gotten about 10 ticks over the past few days. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 7 months and 7 days old | 35 lbs

You don't have to wait a month, natural tick remedies do not work in my experience but there is no toxicity effect related to those products either. you can use Frontline today if you want, although i would recommend other products for ticks such as Nexguard, Bravecto or Advantix which are in my opinion much more effective than frontline.
