Frontline Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs - 5-22lbs,3 Doses

After trying many natural remedies to get rid of fleas on our yorkie, we decided to finally buy this, and it works. It works fast. There was still some itching for a day or 2 but thats expected with all the bites still being present. Within 3 days I couldn't find 1 flea on him and itching has stopped.If your dog sleeps with you I do recommend putting this on in the morning or giving at least 6hrs for the application area to dry. It does take some time.

This is the lest expensive place if you need this product. it works well and is necessary for your dogs comfort and protection. it is important to apply the liquid precisely on the nape of the dogs neck so he can't lick it. It is also imperative to make sure the liquid is applied directly onto the skin and not the fur or hair. It doesn't work immediately and takes a few days to spread so don't panic and apply more if you still notice fleas. They will eventually die. Only apply once every 30 days as directed. I found washing my dog before application works best.

When we brought our new puppy home, she immediately started scratching like crazy, that’s when we discovered our house had a serious flea problem! I panicked and needed a solution fast.After reading tons of positive reviews, I ordered Frontline and was relieved it arrived quickly. As a bonus, it’s safe for puppies as long as they meet the minimum weight requirement. Application was straightforward, just applied it behind the shoulder blades as directed.**The results:** Within the first day, I could see fleas dying, which was encouraging. However, I’ll be honest, I was a bit concerned when I still spotted 1-2 live fleas daily for the first 48 hours. Based on what I’d heard, I expected faster results. But patience paid off. By day three, the fleas were completely gone and haven’t returned.**Bottom line:** Frontline definitely works, though it takes a full 2-3 days to completely eliminate the problem rather than the overnight miracle I was hoping for. The gradual but thorough elimination was worth it for lasting results.**Would I buy again?** Absolutely. Our puppy is comfortable and flea-free!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Products works good in the sense of stopping fleas from biting. My dog don't scratch as much. It doesn't prevent fleas from hanging around in the fur though. So still have to worry about fleas getting in the house. With all that said, still would recommend.

For full disclosure this is for 23-44 lb dogs.Yes, I have read about the Frontline mimics on the EPA site (Google Frontline and EPA). My Frontline was bought from Drs. Foster and Smith and did not have the indicators of the fake products. So do not be fooled into thinking all negative reviews of Frontline are about forgeries.I had heard from my vet that fleas were becoming immune to Frontline. I had used Frontline Plus with two previous dogs. I lost my second dog in February 2012 and got a 8 week puppy in April. Frontline had effectively eliminated and prevented any flea infestation for over 20 years, when combined with rug spraying. Since I didn't have fleas to worry about, I was using the remaining Frontline Plus on my puppy when she grew big enough. About 5-10 years previous I had found two ticks on my Frontline Plus treated dog, both dead, neither particularly engorged with blood. Whereas, with a Hertz product I had tried, I found live ticks next to where it was applied.A camping trip October 2012 to Cape Cod proved to me beyond doubt that Frontline Plus also no longer worked on ticks. I was not duly warned by the Nickerson State Campsite how severe their tick problem was. The Frontline Plus had only been on my dog for two weeks. I pulled more than thirty ticks off my dog during the week and the week after I returned. 15 were engorged with more than 7 at what is shown in pictures as fully engorged. Merriel makes a big deal about the tick needing to be on the dog for a certain amount of time before it will kill them. I may be wrong but the length of time seems to be expanding as the effectiveness goes down. At any rate, if it does not kill the tick before the tick can transmit disease, it is worthless. All insecticides come with a risk, and if it doesn't work you are just applying a poison to your beloved companion.My dog contracted a tick-borne disease: Anaplasmosis.(previously Erlichiosis). Due to my persistence, it was caught early, hopefully early enough to prevent long term effects. Testing and treatment for Lyme and Anaplasmosis are not a sure thing. The best course is prevention. Talk to your vet about what is the best out on the market.I was just authorized for refund of the remaining product which I have to mail back. I was told that they can't put an expiration date on the package because EPA doesn't tell them what to put, and they don't know. Even if it was still working, this is very lame for a company that is selling a toxic product.As an afterthought, in flea combing her to locate ticks, I also pulled out two live fleas.Do not buy this product!
