Merial Frontline Plus Flea and Tick Control for Cats and Kittens, 3 Doses

I bought this because my cat's an indoor outdoor cat. He has free reign by way of his kitty door with his own magnetic key. Boy is he spoiled...

But anyway, I bought this because Bob came home with several ticks. I found one crawling on him, and one attached to him. Then, I found one crawling on me...oh-no! So I wanted to try Frontline because it claims to be a tick control.

Well, it is, kinda. I assumed that Frontline would be something that would give him an aura of "keep away from me" for fleas and ticks, much like Pig-Pen's dirt aura did for him in Charlie Brown. However, it doesn't. Now, Bob comes home with ticks, only...they're clinging to the outside of his hair. They won't crawl in and attach, but they're clinging to his hair, and as such, unless I find them when he comes in, they may detach at any time. Since he likes to join us in bed after we're asleep and he's done his nightly field mouse hunt, this is especially troublesome.

I don't know what else to do, other than use those nasty flea/tick collars, which I don't want to do. But I suppose since the ticks won't crawl into his hair, technically it's "control."

My cat and I are still in month one of using Frontline and there's some scratching going on. I'd like to know if it's something that has to build over time or if it isn't as good as people say it is.

I have tried various products to keep my cat free of fleas and ticks. Frontline Plus works quickly and efficiently and it is easy to apply. Amazon had the lowest price for Frontline Plus and shipping was free!

This was the 1st time I used this product. It didn't last the entire month but it DID help a lot. I noticed a lot less scratching from my cats and so I'm hoping that after I use it for 3 full months that I will REALLY see a major difference.

I recommend it.

I have ordered this product several times from this vendor. I have always received excellent service. I receive the product in only a few days. It is well packaged. I would highly recommend both the product and the vendor.
