BudgetPetCare

I have yet to receive the products so I cannot comment on them. However they deducted twice from my bank account which is totally unacceptable and very concerning. My card was also hacked 4 days within a few days of ordering from them.

I ordered Frontline Plus back in May and received something called frontline combo I called and emailed and got told they are the same product just different packaging. So i used it on my cat. Its now july and the product isnt working as well as i hoped. So i emailed budget pet care who to my shock after reading reviews on here said they can help. They took about a week to come back to me but offered a solution and I will probably try something else now as my cat doesnt seem to like frontline... i wouldnt right this company off as a scam..

I ordered Frontline PLUS for Cats and got something called Frontline Combo for Cats, it took ages to get to me but when I called I was told they are in Canada so it takes time to get through customs... i still ended up going to wallmart and buying some to keep me going. They assure me the product is the same. It does say its made by merial and i checked the box i got from walmart the only difference really is the weights as where they send it from does it in kgs, to be honest though long as my cat sammie is flea and tick free im happy to use it..

Updated review:

I cannot remember ever waiting so long for one of their shipments to arrive. It has been FIFTEEN days since I placed a $240 order for flea meds for our three dogs, and the Global Tracker estimates another 8 days to arrive. Beyond the time it now takes (because on some things, if you plan successfully, you can wait), their "tracking" system sounds like a SCAM. Basically, you pay extra for a tracking number - which they do not give you unless you contact them for it.

I am beyond sad that a really, really good business has gone the way of 'down the drain'.

Original Review:
A few years ago, in looking for a lower cost option as to where I could obtain my pet's heartworm preventative, I came across a site which had been opened by a couple of veterinarians and which did not need prescriptions, and where the items they sold were purported to be the "REAL" and "EXACT" products you would get at your vets. The reviews, although not many, were positive. Although wary, I figured I would take the chance and see what it was exactly that I received.

I placed an order for one pet only, waited for about a week, and then received the heartworm preventative I had ordered. I immediately compared both internal and external packaging. I looked for misspellings in their directions, ingredients, etc. It passed the test in that the packaging was pretty much identical. Still with a little bit of trepidation, I administered the first monthly dose to my dog. No issues. I then ordered from them a couple of more times before they closed. In their closing messages however, they recommended BudgetPetCare. Well, based on the recommendation from where I had been happy shopping, I visited BudgetPetCare's site, and immediately felt comfortable ordering from them. Again, not only was it recommended from a company who had established itself as what they said they were, but I liked their website layout; their no-frills, informative pages; their prices; and their money-back guarantees.

I placed the first of a few orders through them, that very day.

That was a couple of years back, and I have been satisfied with every purchase since then.

If there is one (minor) thing to be aware of, it is the number of promotional emails you receive from them once you order. It may be less or more of a problem for you, depending on how much of a pet peeve receiving unsolicited email is for you personally, but it was just this side of annoying for me. On the flip side, I would not recommend unsubscribing from them, because they always contain coupon codes, and the like, to save you a few extra dollars off of their already low prices.

In short, I cannot recommend them enough! Unfortunately, it is a sad fact of life that some pet owners find it difficult to decide between keeping up with the cost of their pet's well-being and paying the light bill (or in some cases, a new set of earpods). BudgetPetCare HELPS!

EDIT:
Needed my dog's Heartgard, so I prepared to order it from BudgetPetCare, and discovered they have begun to carry something called NuHeart. Researched it and saw it was supposedly a 'generic' Heartgard, and a lot less $$. Ordered it expecting it to take over a week, which was fine, but it arrived in 5 days, which was nice. I read the inserts for both types (based on dog weights), felt comfortable giving it to my dogs on August 18th (17 days ago) and have seen no adverse reactions. The one minor detractor is that it comes in little pills versus the meat-like chunks that Heartgard come in and which my dogs seemed to prefer. On a good note, the pills are easily given (my dogs did not just volunteer to eat them) and they are also water-soluble from what I read. See new pictures.
