Worms while on revolution???

WTH???
How is it possible that the dogs can have worms and they are on revolution??
I mean I pay enough for the stuff, you'd think it would work?
Its only been this year that I have ever put them on anything like this ( I did it for fleas more so than anything else. In my house fleas would be absolute hell... due to sheer numbers of animals in here)
Im very ticked...
Its pretty bad in some of them too... Leira has alot in her poops and her breeder gave the 6 month supply when she was purchased so her whole life she has been "protected"...
Kita barely has any,
Puppy!!! ---- FULL
Meik has none in his stool but im going to worm him anyway and Bailey is just starting to show some....
WTF...
Meik and Bailey arent on anything for it but they arent the worst off.
Puppy isnt either, but he is full... that i can understand.
Kita and Leira though??? Baffled.

I heard that fleas have some resiliance to frontline?? I believe it was, perhaps worms are mutating too and are not affected by Revolution???
Frustrating I must say!

Lucky had gotten both hookworm and tapeworm while on Revolution. I know that preventative parasiticides don't cover tapeworm but we were really surprised about the hookworm. We now use Advantage Multi.
