Welcome! Definitely post some photos of the new guy.
As far as shampoos ...our vet suggested getting a 'soap free' shampoo, so that the Frontline will not be washed away. They are just like normal, sudsing shampoos but they are without an ingredient that washes away the flea protection. (I think it's some sort of sulfate?) We got ours at the vet but I've seen them at Petsmart and I saw another brand at a fancy dog accessory store.
Hope this helps. That first year as a new Basset parent is a tough one B)
