Q. How quickly do FRONTLINE Brand Products kill parasites?
A. Our research data shows FRONTLINE Brand Products will kill fleas
within 18 hours of contact with your treated pet. Ticks will die within 48
hours of contact with your treated pet.
Q. Why am I seeing more fleas on my pet after applying a FRONTLINE
Brand Product?
A. After the application of a FRONTLINE Brand Product, you may see more
fleas, but this is an indication that the FRONTLINE Brand Product is working.
FRONTLINE Brand Products make fleas hyperexcited, drawing them to the top of
the haircoat before dying. This will make them more visible to you.
Q. I treated my pet with a FRONTLINE Brand Product, but I still see
fleas in my home. Why?
A. The fleas you see are most likely hatched flea eggs that were deposited
in the environment before you began using FRONTLINE Brand Products. Consecutive
monthly applications of a FRONTLINE Brand Product to your pet will assist with
the elimination of an indoor flea life cycle. In some geographical regions in
the United States, it may be required to use the product year-round.
Q. How long after application can my pet be bathed or go swimming?
A. FRONTLINE Brand Products remain effective for 30 days, even if a pet
swims or is bathed. After application, keep the dog or cat from getting wet
until the application area appears dry, usually 24 hours. If a FRONTLINE Brand
Product is to be applied after a bath, make sure the pet is completely dry
before application.
Q. Can I use FRONTLINE Brand Products if my pet is on medication?
A. FRONTLINE Brand Products are not systemically active and have no known
adverse interactions with systemic medications.
