Flea Wars

[MissFoodie]

Frontline doesnt seem to be working.... switched to this as it covers fleas and tics, but after fumigating house and frontlining cats 10 days ago have got 6 live ones off them today....

Does anyone use a spot one that works on both fleas and tics?

For house assume Indorex spray is best?

Many thanks!

I use Bravecto from the vets - it lasts three months at a time.
There have been reports for a while that Frontline no longer works.

Do they go out? Mine hunts and cones back with fleas a lot. However, because he is de-flead religiously, theyre usually dying on him anyway.

Yours could have caught fleas again when out but they should die once they bite your cat.
I changed to Advantage drops, they’re much cheaper and do the exact same job for my cats.

Also, make sure you worm them regularly ... fleas and worms go together. I now have to worm my boy monthly! He is a very avid hunter and worming him 3 monthly did nothing.

Did you spray every single area in your house, bedding included?

Frontline is mostly ineffective against fleas. We use Stronghold here which is either from vets or prescription. If you can't get to see a vet/obtain a prescription in this current climate Advantage is supposed to be good (never used it myself but others on here recommend it).
