I have a female that I bred and wanted to know what others have used for heartworm prevention during this period. I have read not to give any insecticides during pregnancy. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Like greenhead said, all of the commercially available products are safe.

Ok I read that you couldnt use insecticides with pregnant bitch. Maybe they are talking about frontline or something like that?
