Well, I have tried Firefox and I do still have it installed, but I will take Opera any day. I get tired of all of the extensions that Firefox has and trying to make sure they are all playing nice with each other. With Opera, I can just use it. Works for me.

That can get a little aggravating but I leave most of them alone. All I have is the Forecastfox for the weather, Tabbrowsers Preferences (love that tabbed browser function) and IE View for when FF doesn't want to open something for me. Anything is better and safer than IE.

I bought the Sentry Natural Defensse for the girls about 3 weeks ago. I ended up having to bathe all 3 dogs the next night. It was super oily and aromatic. It rubbed off on everything, even leaving greasy looking spots on their blankets. Not to mention, it did not work. I am very hesitant about using frontline on the girls. It's what my vet recommends but, I don't like applying the "chemicals" to their skin. Living in the south (Little Rock, AR.) we have ticks and fleas really bad. I started using Sentry Flea and Tick shampoo with oatmeal. The girls get a bath every 10 days. I also use a flea comb and brush them daily. So far this has been working. We added yard treatment to our pest control plan. They come out every 3 months and treat the yard. My husband bought an Ortho spray that hooks up to the water hose, we do this in the months between our other treatment. The spray kills fleas, ticks and mosquitos. I live by this stuff!! We wave a pond in our back yard and NO mosquito problems. It is safe to use around the dogs as long as you let it completely soak into the ground and dry.
Good luck in the fight against fleas, ticks and mosquitos!!!!
