Frontline Plus is good for flea and tick protection. Search online for the best price, because it's expensive. Stay away from the Hartz stuff and collars sold in grocery stores.
Also, definitely get her on Heartgard as soon as your vet recommends starting treatment. Heartworm is a terrible disease, yet totally preventable. Again, shop around for the best price - it's not as expensive as Frontline, but it's not cheap, either. And it's once a month - forever. If you discontinue it for any length of time, your vet will require a heartworm test ($$) before issuing another prescription, because giving Heartgard to a dog with heartworm will kill it.
No - don't wake her up if she's sleeping. She'll wake up soon enough! Besides - the object is to get her to let you know when she needs to go out.
