Rider - Thank you, I didn't realize that the Immiticide is the fast kill method and the Ivermectin is the slow kill, thank you for clarifying that. It sounds as though she wants to go the fast kill method, but we need to determine what stage he's in and how many shots, 2 or 3. We're going to see where he's at tomorrow. She did say that there's a Vet in Gilbert that she's going to refer me to that has more experience with treating heartworm after we determine how bad the worm load is.
