You might want to check with your vet and find out if Frontline isn't as effective in your area (some of these treatments have been overused in one area or another and the fleas have become somewhat resistant to them), and if so, which of the other topical treatments are better suited for your region. I used to use Advantage and it was fine. Also have heard from many on this site that Revolution is good too.I have two 3 month old cats that I applied frontline to and it doesn't seem to have worked. I've heard good things about Revolution and Advantage. Which would you guys recommend?
So my problem is this why would i risk I don’t want any side effects i want 100% safe i have 5 cats and they lick each other alsoAs said, any medicine can have adverse effects. I suggest applying it when you will be home so you can watch for any signs of problems and also do it during your vets office hours. That way if there is a reaction (NOT common) you can get help right away. Be very careful about buying on line. Order only from a known source as there have been reports of people selling bogus flea medicines. I use BudgetPetWorld. The prices are reasonable and I have never had a problem with them
There is no such thing as 100% safe I'm afraid. There is always a slight possibility that a cat will have an allergic reaction to a product. That's why it's best to use new products when you are going to be around to take action if anything does go wrong.I don’t want any side effects i want 100% safe i have 5 cats and they lick each other also
Thanks for that information. I'm taking one of the cats in for their annual check up on Saturday and will see what the vet says about that.Be cautious. The FDA warned months ago that products like Bravecto can cause problems. Here is the link: Neurologic Event Potential Associated with Certain Flea/Tick Products
Why u have to apply every month?? I didn’t know that so all cats or just cats with fleas im confuseI’ve used Revolution on my cats for a long time. Last week, I gave them all their monthly dose, and when I took Rico in for his vet exam later in the week, the vet found a tick on him!
She said she’s been seeing lately that Revolution just doesn’t work as well as it used to. She now recommends Bravecto instead.
I’ve ordered some. I hope it works—only having to apply it once every three months instead of every month will be nice.
