FRONTLINE DOES NOT WORK ! she has been treated recently with it and the vet told me of course it works. have just realised the poor thing is not only about to drop but she got fleas as well. they seems to be round her teats. will she have dead ones on her. so upset for her. can she be treated whilst pregnant before her babies come. scared for her kittens. thanks

I dont know, I've picked fleas off my cat with tweezers in the past.

I'm no cat expert but a pregnant stray cat adopted us a few months ago. I took her to the vets and they put a spot on thing on her and that did the trick Smile. She wasnt riddled but got rid of the few she had. Ive no idea what is was called but you may be best doing it before she has the kittens as its a pain de fleaing kittens before there old enough for the spot on stuff.

The vet doesn't have to put it on but he did it for me as I was nearly 40 weeks myself and didnt fancy being scratched. so you can buy it and do it yourself it was less then £10 iirc

thank you. went to the pet shop yesterday and they gave me some Acclaim to spray the house and some more Frontline for her. its fine to use when shes pregnant. they charged e £50 for the pleasure. had to do it though as dont have time to wait for the delivery from internet.
