I think where you live can make a huge difference in how much of a problem Fleas can be.
We've used Revolution for years. It is a heartworm medicine that also prevents fleas, ticks, mites, etc. It's about $12 per month from the vet. I hate spending the money on it, but if you've ever had to deal with fleas, you will know it's well worth the money.....not to mention protecting my dog from heartworm issues.
