I gave my kittens Revolution last month, however i have been wondering about the product Bio Spot... does it work... my vet won't give Frontline to cats... so it seems like it is Revolution or OTC...
I buy my Frontline from www.drsfostersmith.com Every spring they have a free shipping + a sale price, and I buy my summer supply then. I use the original Frontline, where most of the vets around here carry the Frontline Plus. I don't need the extra "stuff" that makes it prevent ticks.Originally Posted by Mama of Bronte

I used the Revolution (from the vet) on my 14 year old cat, and she almost died... Had to spend a few days in the hospital. Bloodwork was all messed up. The manufacturer did nothing for me. They wouldn't even confirm that the bloodwork was indicative of reactions to their product. Two months later my 8 month old cat had the exact same reaction to Revolution, and ALSO had to spend some time in the hospital. Same exact problems indicated in the bloodwork, again, no help at all from the manufacturer. No more Revolution for my cats...Originally Posted by Lorina
And most importantly, the pharmacutical companies that make the Big Name products sold at the vets stand behind their products. You don't get that with OTC products. (In fact, you don't get that with the Big Name products if you don't buy them through your vet. There's a lot of bogus stuff out there, so the guarantee only applies if purchased at your vets.)
Strange .. not sure how they deem gentler but frontline is FOUND the LEAST in the blood stream ( i saw the studies at the vets) the advatage was found in the highest concentrations..Originally Posted by CC12
My vets will only use Advantage. It is gentler and uses a different active ingredient than Frontline.
I have been very pleased with it and have never had an issue with fleas or sensitivities.
