Hiya,

Was just wondering if anyone knows of a cheaper alternative to Frontline flea treatment for cats?

Thanks in advance!

    Hope it works for you, cause Frontline hasn't worked for my cats for sometime and others have reported the same.

    Advantage is now available without prescription, works far better than Frontline IMO.

    Had a nightmare with Frontline at last application, cats still had live fleas, same with the dog.

    Applied Advantage to all 4 (3 cats and dog) 2 days ago, not a single live flea on any of them today, brushed a lot of dead ones though so definitely Advantage is better than Frontline.

    I get all my pets meads from:

    Free, fast delivery, good prices.

    You should also treat the house, my cats still had fleas after Frontline treatment and I went to vets and got Advantage (before it was available without prescription) and she told me I had to treat the house too. I got Indorex £7.91 (don't buy from vets) and with one can, and regular hoovering, I have never seen a live or a dead flea since on a carpet.
