it is a medication.
Frontline by itself should be sufficient to deal with your cat or dog's flea problem. Using a flea bath will reduce the effectiveness of the Frontline (you should only wash your dog with a gentle shampoo to maintain Frontline's protection).
you put right behind the collar bone and down the spine.
Absolutely NOT- only use medication for dogs for dogs and medication for cats for cats!
People interested in purchasing Frontline pet medication can do so by visiting any major pet shop. PetSmart, Petco, and PetShed are three major chains that sell Frontline.
Yes - the medication impregnated in the flea collar is designed to kill off any existing infestation - and deter fleas from landing on the animal in future.
Use the preventic collar. Ive had good success. I used the frontline type products.....they do kill ticks after they bite your animal. Both my dogs still ended up testing positive for lyme disease while using that chemical stuff......so I did not see the point. Besides.....ask yourself this.....would you put that stuff on your own skin and let it soak in? I wouldnt. I try not to poison myself....and frankly....my dogs mean too much to me.
Frontline offers a commercially available flea and tick treatment for cats. Applying the medication to cat will help to repel fleas and ticks for up to thirty days.
bath them good and pick the fleas off or get them a flea collar or something else that keeps fleas away.
No. Frontline products should be used on the specified species. This is because one of the main components of Frontline, S-Methoprene is needed in a higher dose in cats. This is because it does not last as long in a cat than in a dog. So, if you used Frontline for dogs on your cat, it may not be as effective. However, this higher dose is still safe to use on a dog - so you could use Frontline for cats on a dog.
Give your dog a flee bath, or change the brand of flea collar.
You should NEVER use a flea and tick collar with a dog. Period. You are basically putting a ring of poison around your dogs head and exposing them constantly to harmful fumes and chemicals. Spend the money and get them frontline.
Contrary to popular belief, yes they can. My dog has a tick collar and we frontline her regularly and she still gets ticks.
