Q. |

Q. |
Why should I buy FRONTLINE instead of other treatments? |

Q. |
Should I re-apply FRONTLINE if I see more fleas on my pet soon after application? |
|
| |
A. |
No. FRONTLINE only needs to be applied every 8 weeks if using FRONTLINE Top Spot if FRONTLINE Spray. If you see fleas on your treated pet, these have most likely come from your pet's environment and will soon be killed by FRONTLINE.

Q. |
Do I need to use FRONTLINE even if my dog is not scratching? |
|
| |
A. |
Yes, not all dogs are sensitive to flea bites. Some dogs can harbour large numbers of fleas without being itchy. However as time goes on they are more likely to become sensitive.
|
| |
| |
Q. |
Can I stop treating during the cooler months when the fleas disappear? |
|
| |
A. |
This is a risky strategy. What is actually happening is that the immature pre-adult stage of the flea population go into hibernation. So, although you may not see them on your dog, they will be building up in the environment. Year-round treatment will prevent build-up.

| |
Q. |
FRONTLINE is absorbed into my dog's bloodstream isn't it? |
|
| |
A. |
No. FRONTLINE is dispersed in the oil layer of the skin and then stored in the sebaceous glands of skin. Fleas are not required to suck blood to be killed.
|
| |
| |
Q. |
How young can dogs be treated? |
|
| |
A. |
FRONTLINE Spray can be used on puppies as young as 2 days of age. FRONTLINE Top Spot is designed for dogs 10 weeks and older.
