The_DADDY Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 We use Frontline on both cats and both cats have managed to get fleas🙄 What's the best treatment you've found to rid your kitty of those horrible little blighters? Frontline clearly isn't working for them so I need an alternative that will otherwise its a trip to the vet and I'm not looking forward to the 42 quid per cat prescription treatment? Thanks in advance 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it gives around 12 months protection which (if accurate) sounds quite impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipstaff Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 I'm an animal lover, really I am! I always used frontline on my pets years ago, but I'm not sure whether or not it has become less effective these days? Perhaps its not as strong as it used to be?

I used to use it for my GSD (Rest in peace Big Lad) and it was fine but yeah, it seems rubbish now. Having said that I found it Very difficult to find the skin under their fur so maybe its my fault it dosent seem to be working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
