FRONTLINE^® PLUS will spread over the coat of your pet within 24 hours. Any new fleas that jump onto your pet will die within 8-24 hours. The adult fleas on your pet represent only 5% of the total flea population. The other 95% are the eggs, larvae and pupae that can remain dormant in the environment for up to 6 months. The best way to kill fleas is to break their life cycle. By applying FRONTLINE^® PLUS continually you will deplete the flea population over time and protect your home environment.

Yes. With heated homes, fleas can be a problem all year round inside the home.  Outside, the flea life cycle never stops in winter, it just slows down. 

FRONTLINE^® PLUS works by killing fleas as they come into contact with the product on your pet's skin and haircoat; it is not a repellent, therefore if your pet is exposed to a source of fleas in the home or external environment, they may re-infest your pet. These new fleas will be killed within 24 hours. You cannot stop your pets from picking up fleas if your pet shares its environment with other pets and wildlife.

Every four weeks. Remember FRONTLINE^® PLUS is not a tick repellent so you may still see some ticks on your pet. They should be killed within 48 hours.

The main difference is that FRONTLINE^® PLUS also contains the insect growth regulator (S)-methoprene to control immature flea stages and provide integrated flea control. Check the label claims on other products.

Kittens and puppies can be treated with FRONTLINE^® PLUS as early as 8 weeks of age.  It is safe to treat kittens and puppies with FRONTLINE^® SPRAY from 2 days of age.

Your dog will catch fleas from the trail of flea eggs other dogs or wildlife such as rats and rabbits have left behind in the park or at doggy day care. Fleas rarely jump from pet to pet, but it can happen.

Yes, however cats are often a ‘silent’ source of fleas as they may groom rather than scratch, so it’s less obvious they have fleas. Cats also enjoy a wide roaming area where they may pick up fleas and then spend time inside with you. If cats are not treated regularly there is greater risk of infesting your home and garden.

Some may; fleas do not have to bite in order to be killed by FRONTLINE^® PLUS but fleas can bite as quickly as 60 seconds from the time they jump onto your pet.

You may notice your pet scratching and see fleas deep in your pet’s coat or around your cat’s or dog’s ears. Also, you may notice black specks of flea dirt (digested blood meal) in their coat.
