bobmom:

We recently had one into the vets and she told us that we should really have them on Revolution all year long since it prevents heartworms. So, we use it every month now.

I worked in an animal hospital for several years, and it was standard practice to recommend that dogs receive Sentinel monthly and cats receive Revolution monthly for precisely that reason. It should be noted that this is in the South, though, where protection against worms is essentially a requirement. I second lololu’s suggestion of buying online, as it is MUCH cheaper.

Advantage and especially Frontline Plus are also good for fleas/ticks, but they don’t have the protection against worms.
