          Many people are confused when it comes to buying heart worm and flea preventatives for their pet. This doesn't have to be the case! Here at Porter County Pet Clinic, we carry many types of preventions to accommodate your pet. There is rumor of owners being able to buy flea and heart worm medications over the counter. This is not true! The different medications can be very harmful to your pet and cause many types of unwanted sicknesses. Many of our products have a customer satisfaction guarantee, just ask any staff member today! 

 

          The top distributors of flea and heart worm medications are Merial, Pfizer, and Elanco just to name a few. You will not find these distributors products in over the counter stores. They are only available through your veterinarian. Have questions whether or not your pet's flea and heart worm medication is legitimate? Just call our practice at 219-462-9668 and we can answer any questions you may have!
