    Is there a reliable place or avenue to get bravecto without having to take each animal in to the vet?

    I have ordered Nexgard from Canada I think they sell Bravecto also. The only downside is it takes around 3 weeks to arrive but it is cheaper than US prices and no script needed

    If your vet has a Merck account for you, there is special shelter/ rescue pricing for topical Bravecto.  You could ask them to order you a supply.

    Veterinary expenses continue to rise at an alarming rate.   While we are able to get our organization's meds via our veterinarian of record, many of us volunteers order our preventative medications from Sierrapetmeds.com.  Same products, free shipping, less expensive than the US, no Rx required, and they have a rewards program.  We also let our adopters know -- many of them have multiple pets and are grateful for a less expensive source that will allow them to keep their pets on the meds.  It does take a couple of weeks for orders to arrive so some planning is needed.

    I don't see any other veterinarians responding to this thread, so I'm going to chime in. Bravecto, in all forms, is a prescription only item, which means that each pet must be examined by a veterinarian in order to legally prescribe it. While owners have all kinds of options to get around that legal requirement, shelters and rescues need to be very careful about administering prescription medications that have not been prescribed by a veterinarian. If they choose to do so, they put themselves at risk of costly fines, penalties or legal actions if licensing entities or state departments of agriculture find out that this is happening.

    No licensed veterinarian should be willing to provide stock or supplies to be used outside of a valid VCPR...that would be putting their license at risk.
