CVS sell their own parasiticide products of course, so this is not without the potential for &#39;bias (even if transparently so) given that it looks like they are in charge of the statistical processing of the data. I hope not, as some objective and unconflicted research in this area would be welcome. In the meanwhile, I have taken a precautionary approach- not sold spot-on products for dogs for 4 years or so (except for the occasional Advocate for lung worm treatment).</p><img src="https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/aggbug?PostID=160011&AppID=4&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
