Is there an effective flea and heartworm combo pill out there?

[Elizabeth, Bailey & Bruin]

Right now Bailey is on Advantage Multi.  It is working for her but I hate the way it makes her fur smell until it dries.

 

Is there a once a month flea/heartworm combo pill out there that works?

Merk is scheduled to come out with an oral pill for heartowrm, fleas and ticks within the next 6 months.

Over the past few days, we have had several discussions on heartworm and flea/tick meds and related issues. Perhaps this information will be helpful:
