I've always purchased Frontline Plus for my 3 cats. But what is the difference between Frontline Plus, and Frontline Plus Top Spot ? I always thought I was buying the right one, but I just want to be sure. Thanks, Okey

Honestly, you should only buy your flea medications from a vet. Often the ones you buy over-the-counter or on-line are not the same formula (some are weaker or knock-offs and don't work and some are downright dangerous). If you buy from a vet he/she will know the correct dosage for your cat's weight/age and will have the legitimate product, AND, he/she will be able to answer your questions.

I agree ... do to a illness my vet suggested top spot

Both products are made by Merial and legitimate. Here's a review I found:

The products are the same, I think vet clinics carry Plus over Top Spot because it's the newer product of the two, and pitched as being better.
