Hi....my cat has fleas. Usually i use frontline but read that it's not very effective, and the last time I used it, I found the same.
I've used RIP throughout the house, but not sure what yo use on my cat.
Does anyone know of anything which is effective on getting rid of these horrible pests?
Many thanks

RIP around the house so we very rarely treat the cats themselves

Have no idea if it's going to work but I've just bought some of this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Diatomaceous-Earth-Food-Grade-300g/dp/B0083HO2MY/ref=pd_sim_d_3
Diatomaceous Earth (recommended by some dog breeders!) can be used all around the house, as an internal anti-parasitic and although it is not recommended for external use on animals, a lot of dog owners brush it into fur to get rid of fleas. It is human food-grade so is safe to ingest, but MUST NOT be inhaled!
Safe to use around birds, cats, dogs and horses."Cheap", "Fast", "Right" -- pick two.0 -
I have found Aclaim is good to use around the house. Frontline has always been my choice flea treatment but recently I have discovered Fibrospot which is cheaper and works on my lot.
If you go with Viovet you can use this code VVRMPJZYU and get £3 off your first order if you spend over £15. :T Kerching !0
