I'm sure everyone else did more research about it than we did when it was time for our fresh cycle. I felt like it happened very fast so we did use a credit card (we now refer to as the baby card, and that is the only time we use it), then after we were done using it with our fresh cycle we went to our credit union and got a loan and combined all of our other debt together for a decent (I think) interest rate.
However we were not prepared for everything that was extra. We were given a quote and what we actually paid was A LOT more than that. I know it was just a quote, but I mean multiple thousands more. Stupid body for not cooperating.
Good luck
TTC for 1.5 years with a crappy RE. 12 cycles with clomid (11 too many)
always seems like they charge thousands more.... $-)
financing was issue for us bc no matter how long we financed it for- it was equivilant of another car payment or more. i basically vdid the stupid thing- cleared out my 401k and told hubs be cant ever leave me and any kids from this have to take me in when I'm old a (more) senile. so maybe i'm not good for finacial advice- but! the little research we did before realizing it wasnt for us told me it might be better to do a loan through bank if possible. stressful, but good luck whatever route you take!!!

I'm in Canada so I don't know if it helps, but during my research I came across a company called medicard that specifically finances medical procedures. I haven't looked at it in a while but I think I remember they had decent rates.
