Fleas treatment for indoor cats

Hi everyone
Can someone please advise how regularly should I flea my indoor cats? I have two. They never go out, so I am wondering if I should fleas them every month, or once every 3 months is fine. Adding photo for attention:)
Thanks

Have you asked your vet what they advise the dosing schedule should be?

Aww look at their faces!!

Never thought about this but we just carried on with monthly treatment for ours when she was an indoor cat for a year. She did scratch every so often when due a treatment so maybe was still being affected somehow. Maybe there were some fleas in the environment/carpets.

Omg Persians! Sqeeeeeeee! I don my
Persian monthly. But only because they are on the vet plan. They probably don't need it that often. Cheddar and Magic wave their paws at your pair!

So so I. Please post more pics. Persians are just amazing! Cheddar gets highly offended by people saying she's grumpy.

Sausage says Hi.

OMG your puds are adorable.

Sausages is an indoor cat but he does go out on a lead.

Vet sees him once a year for a check-up...although with covid hasn't been for 2 years now. He just gets wormed and flee'd by our pussy cat dr (vet). Who has advised us that Sausage shouldn't need flee treatment or jabs unless he was to go out and socialise with other cats.

Mine don't go out, so they get a once a year "just in case" flea & worm spot on as discussed with their vet. There was the time of an invasion of a family of mice in the conservatory, which the cats dealt with quite swiftly, and I gave them another treatment just in case.
