Frontline plus for cats
Previous cat health question on Ask A Vet
Do I need to use frontline plus on all my cats? I have 4 in the household and there’s really only 1 that seems to be affected by the fleas - I don’t see any fleas on any of the other cats. It’s just Cassandra (a 4yo neutered female tabby) that seems to go beserk when there’s even one flea on her. Is there anything else that I have to do to keep the fleas under control?
Answer : Yes ideally you should use Frontline plus for ALL your cats. Cats are very good at picking out fleas whilst grooming so whilst you may not see fleas on yor cats, they could still have them. Fleas also live off the cats ie they live on their bedding, carpets, cushions etc to lay eggs so frequent vacuuming of your house, washing their bedding, vacuuming the lounges etc will decrease the flea population as well. Frontline plus will knock out adult fleas and stop the ones already on your cats from multiplying but the ones currently in the environment who haven’t been subject to the Frontline will still be around so you may just have to be more patient and wait a bit longer persevering with the vacuuming and Frontline Plus treatment. Eventually you will get it under control.
