Not Treating Year-Round. Fleas have been known to over-winter indoors. Treating pets for only certain months of the year can leave open gaps in prevention for infestations to occur. It is also always advisable if you have a pup and kitty who like to hang out together or groom each other, to separate them for 24 hours after applying a topical product to your dog, especially if the product contains permethrin.
A: Frontline is available in formulations for both dogs and cats. It’s important to use the correct formulation for your pet’s species and weight. Q. 8: Where can I buy Frontline? All three ingredients currently found in Frontline products (fipronil, (S)-methoprene, pyriproxyfen) generally appear to have a low potential for toxicity both topically and even if accidentally ingested.Advantage products available for cats include Advantage II and Advantage Multi and they have some differences from Frontline products. Advantage contains imidacloprid, which like fipronil also targets the nervous system of the flea. However, instead of causing excitatory neurologic behavior before death, imidacloprid causes more of a neurologic paralysis. Because of this difference, some pet parents may perceive Advantage II as being more effective, though in the end, both products are doing the same thing. A: Frontline is generally safe for use in pets when applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions. However, as with any medication, there is a risk of side effects. It’s important to talk to your veterinarian about any concerns you have about using Frontline on your pet. Q. 6: Can Frontline be used on puppies and kittens? Before applying it to your cat, make sure to read the label instructions carefully and follow them closely. Here are the steps to apply Frontline: Maintain a clean environment: Vacuum your home regularly to remove fleas and their eggs from carpeting and furniture. Wash your cat’s bedding frequently and keep their living area clean. While Frontline products are considered to be waterproof, make sure not to bathe your kitty for 24-48 hours after an application. Bathing shortly before application may also reduce its effectiveness.
Incorrect application. (i.e. applied to the fur not the skin, failing to apply the whole volume of product, failure to properly puncture or open a vial prior to application). Frontline is available in both spot-on and spray formulations for cats. The spot-on treatment is applied to the skin between the shoulder blades, while the spray can be applied directly to the cat’s coat. Failing to Treat the Environment. Because one flea can lay up to 50 eggs in just one day, the amount of eggs in a home environment with fleas can be staggering. If the environment is not treated effectively, continually hatching fleas may continue to be found on a treated pet.FRONTLINE PLUS ® contains fipronil and (S)-methoprene. UK: AVM-GSL. FRONTLINE TRI-ACT ® contains fipronil and permethrin. UK: NFA-VPS. FRONTLINE ® SPOT ON contains fipronil. UK: AVM-GSL. Failure to apply to all pets in the household. If one pet brings fleas indoors, they can jump onto all pets in the home. If all pets are not treated at the same time, flea infestations can persist. Some cats may clear a heartworm infection on their own, while others may die suddenly and without warning. Because there is also no safe and effective treatment for cats with heartworm, using a product that can prevent heartworm infections in cats may be advisable, especially for outdoor cats and cats living in regions endemic for heartworm. This would be the main advantage, if you will, to choosing Advantage Multi over Advantage II or Frontline products.
