I just found a flea on our little feline guest Kiki. I defleaed him 2 weeks ago using Frontline. I think we'll comb him with a fine toothed comb for a while before re-applying Frontline. I'm usually quite happy with Frontline. Which prodcuts do you use?

Bio Spot!! This spring was the 2nd summer we used bio-spot on our 9 dogs and 4 cats. We had planned on treating them before fleas got active this spring, but found a few sooner then expected, so we treated them immediately. Within two weeks, no fleas. VERY, very few throughout the entire summer on ANY of the animals. I'm in love with this stuff, especially with all our pets being indoors. (yes, it's a zoo 'round here). (Well, the dogs go in and out through the dog door and yes, it's a fenced back yard). *grin* A lot of our pets were rescues, not placeable in other homes because of health problems. So we had been leery about using treatments like this. However, we haven't had any side effects or problems at all with Bio-spot. Love it, love it, love it! Hey, ya know what? I love that stuff!

Hi Anne Anne
What a delightful surprise to see you are the owner,I'm very pleased to meet you,TCS is AWESOME,I'm brandy new & love it here already-Thank you,I feel I'm welcome( refreshing)
Your question,I am stuck on Revolution,for keeps.It is pricey BUT covers all parasites,even ear mites & a huge variety of worms----I was leary at first ,concerned about adverse reactions & side effects- never encountered any and my boy who lived to 18 was on it since he was of age to begin treatment
All my cats walk on leashes so it's important they are protected,I'm in Florida so it's sand fleas galore- not a one!
Started caring for a flea infested,mite eared feral loaded with worms a year ago- when I finally was able to pet him I started him on Revolution Plus -3 days ago I took him in,first to the Vet- parasite FREE!!!! I switched him Credilio though 2 months ago("tablet) because once a month when I applied the topical we'd have trust issues for about a week so simpler to crush and dose in food- its not as extensive as Revolution but good for fleas & ticks....30 day as well,less expensive
Sorry to blab on & on-hope you're not sorry you asked🫣🤣
