This stuff lasts forever if being used on a small dog, like my chihuahua. My last bottle lasted 3 years. Much less expensive than the individual use tubes and just as effective.Best Deals for Frontline Flea and Tick Treatment Dog/Cat Spray, 8-1/2-Ounce
Frontline Spray is easy to use product. I am using it in combination with Revolution spot, because last doesn't work on tics. I am alternating medicine Frontline spot and Revolution in order that the medicine is working.It is more difficult to use on more aggressive cats, because it take some time to apply. Otherwise it is good product and it is working.
Honest reviews on Frontline Flea and Tick Treatment Dog/Cat Spray, 8-1/2-Ounce
When Big Bad Baby Twinkle came home from the hospital after dental surgery with a BUMPER crop of fleas (which may or MAY NOT have originated from the hospital), the first thing I did was grab the Frontline pack -apply one module to BBBT (after calling the vet to make sure that it was OK to apply on this kitty who had just had dental surgery and also has CRF Chronic Renal Failure), flea comb her, curse my fate (they were ALL over the place) and take out the Diatomaecious earth and the vacuuum. I also applied Frontline to BBBT's nemesis, Cee Cee, who "lives" in another room and who, curiously enough -did NOT have fleas (still does not, a month after the fact). BBBT lost some hair on the back of her neck where the Frontline was applied and I had to put a soft Elizabethan collar on her or else she WOULD lick that area-yes she can turn her head 270 degrees -on the other hand/neck, Cee Cee cannot do likewise and she did NOT lose any fur on the back of her neck.The infestation was so bad I had to (WITH the Vet's OK) apply a second round of Frontline to BBBT after a specified interval. So poor BBBT was being flea-combed 2x a day, and moved to the bathroom (with plenty of warm bedding which was constantly checked for fleas) while I attacked the bedroom. Presently she does NOT have fleas -so she stays snug and warm and happy (well, since she is a despotic cat, NOTHING is to her liking, other than food and scritchies) in the bathroom while I continue to attack the bedroom (vinegar lemon mixture, two rugs bagged and thrown outr, Diatoms sprinkled on things and then vacuuumed)
Meanwhile, a search of Amazon revealed that Frontline makes s spray!! YAY!! It was not cheap but neither was it expensive, compared to the price of FAR LESS of the stuff in applicator form. The bottle is a "mister" (hand operated pump) -with squirt (stream) and spray options. I lightly sprayed her cat trees (after they had been diatomed and then vacuumed) and then using DOUBLE plastic gloves, I smoothed down the spray so it penetrated the rug nap on her beloved cat trees -the bottle says it will kill fleas for up to 30 days. After 24 hrs I let BBBT in to play on them, and then she went back into the bathroom for flea-combing and safekeeping while I continue to clean up the bedroom.
I do not plan to spray EVERYTHING in the bedroom with Frontline -after all I have to sleep and breathe in there -BUT I AM spraying those areas where I had seen the worst of the infestation and I will let the diatoms also do their work -of shriveling the chitinous carapaces of the pesky fleas.
So far, no fleas -and I am using my High Powered Vine flashlight to inspect places where the fleas HAD been -there is nothing there but I know they are still out there lurking -and so I continue to fight the good fight, knowing I have Frontline on my side now.
UPDATE Nov 14 -yep the fleas are still out there-I am spraying LIGHTLY the cat trees and, with a double gloved hand -wiping the spray into the rug-fabric of the cat trees, and the very next day there are 3 or 4 dead flea bodies. NOW when I spray, I only spray a small specific area of the room, the cats stay OUT of the room, the water dishes are removed and no one goes back in there for at least 4 hours, until everything is DRY.
