KillS 98-100% Of Adult Fleas
On Your Cat Within 24 Hours, AND Contains A Special Ingredient That
Kills Flea Eggs And Larvae, Too
All animals at one time or another have
had fleas or ticks. These parasites not only make our cats uncomfortable
but can also endanger their health. Many cats are allergic to flea
bites and that is one reason they scratch around the bite area.
Ticks are also carriers of disease just like fleas. Some of these
diseases can be fatal. The deer tick is the known carrier of Lyme
disease. A great preventive measure to protect your cat from having
fleas or ticks is Merial's Frontline For Cat.
Frontline For Cat will kill around 99% of all adult
fleas within 24 hours of beginning treatment. Frontline Plus will
kill brown dog ticks, American dog ticks, lone star tick, and the
dreaded deer tick within 48 hours of treatment. This wonderful product
will also control lice that will make your cat miserable.
Frontline For Cat has been tested for cats and kittens
as young as eight weeks old and can be also used on breeding, pregnant
and lactating cats. Frontline works for an entire month even if
you decide to give your cat a bath or if they get caught in the
rain. You should only use Frontline once a month.
Frontline is very easy to use. You just add the correct
amount between the shoulder blades by using an easy applicator that
allows you to just drop the medication directly on the skin.
Cats love to roam and even if it is not the season
for fleas and ticks that does not mean that your cat may not come
in contact with these parasites. It is best to use Frontline For
Cat all year round.
