Frontline

by Sabine
(Bath)



Hello,

I treated my two 14 weeks old kittens with Frontline Spot On two weeks ago because they had many fleas.

Frontline got rid of them (I thought), but after 10 days the fleas were back.

I also treated the whole house, sprayed every corner and cleaned every day.

Is it likely that the next treatment with Frontline after 4 weeks will get rid of the remaining fleas?

Is it advisable to use flea collars? What would happen if the collar accidently came off and the kittens chewed it? Or are flea collars useless anyway?

I would be very grateful for a reply.

Many thanks,

Kind regards,
Sabine





Hi, Sabine,

Flea collars are useless and toxic. I strongly advise Frontline once monthly and it may take a month or two, but the problem will go away. It is safe and effective.

Thanks for writing!
