Hello!

Nothing makes them go forever. Just keep up to date with flea and worm treatment as both are connected. Frontline is prescription only. So can only get it from vets. Although you may be able to get it over the internet? Generally you have to have a written prescription though. Spray your house with fleas spray. Round ALL skirting boards even if you have laminate. All curtains, your sofa, bed etc... Its really important you do that. There are other options. You could have strong hold, which is similar to frontline but treats worms too, although not all worms. Some people find this more effective. Or you can arrange with the vet to have a program injection? Theres all different treatments out there. Maybe phone your vets for advice?

Just a little note, stronghold works completely different to frontline. Stronghold actually goes into the animals blood and when the fleas drink the blood it paralises(?sp) them. It treats round worm and ear mites but NOT tape worm (you will need to treat for this if you pet has fleas as fleas can pass it on. the ingreiant that is in stronghold is not drontal as drontal kills tape worm aswell
Frontline doesnt go into the blood it just uses the oils on the animals skin to coat it. That is why you can't bath then 48hrs before or after treatment. as the flea/tick/lice bite the skin it will be poisoned.

Oh and program injections are only for cats and only kill eggs and lavae not adult fleas.

I have heard, from more than one source, that Frontline doesn't work any more. I use Advocate for my dog (from the vet)

Veterinary nurse here - Frontline really isn't the best treatment out there anymore. Which is why it is much more readily available cheaply online now than it was before. I'm all for getting the best prices you can on decent drugs but advocate is one of the best treatments for fleas out there right now.
