Frontline Plus Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs

It works

I bought this product online instead of going with the expensive vet visit and pill supplement. Our boy is very active mostly outdoor pup. This product kept the fleas and ticks off my boy so well. We live in a very rural area in Tennessee in the mountains and ticks are very much expected. We did wait a little too long to give him his second dose and he did get into a mess of seed ticks unfortunately. Once we gave him a good dip and reapplied the Frontline we made sure to stay on top of it, and we didn't see any issues after.

My dog hasn’t had any fleas or ticks so I’m assuming this works! Does make a oily/greasy spot where it is applied.

Good bought no issuez

The Frontline Plus flea and tick control for 45 to 88 pound dogs was worse than a disappointment. My dog is 50 pounds--well within the dosage range and become infested with fleas during the second month/dosage of usage. I'm not sure if the preventative actually worked the first month or if I just didn't notice the fleas until the fleas had multiplied enough for me to easily see them. I also don't know if I received the same quailty Frontline product through Amazon as a store/vet purchase. I have no reason to think that this was an imitation product other than some suspicions by other reviewers. Regardless, I had to use a flea dip and flea bomb my house. Once an infestation occurs, getting rid of the fleas is quite an aggravation. I'm trying Advantage II from PetSmart now to see if that will work. Hopefully, something will.June 24 2013, Advantage II didn't work either. I've had acceptable success from Certifect which I buy from my vet. I've used Certifect for over a year now. These flea and tick drops are made by Frontline but are only sold by prescription or thru a vetinarian. It works great for ticks. I've not had any problems with ticks from the first dosage. For a few days, though, after the dosage, he is a bit lethargic. However, my dog will still pick up fleas. The drops do kill the fleas but don't repel them quickly enough. Many people are having trouble with fleas because of the sucession of mild winters. The flea population isn't culled enough. During the summer months, the fleas just seem to overwhelm the medication and flea dips or additional organic sprays are necessary. I've been told that a new flea and tick pill may now be available. I know the flea pill works but I hadn't used it because I needed something for ticks. If this rumor is true, I'll definately give the pill a try.December 30, 2014. I finally found something that actually works for controlling fleas and ticks for my now 70 pound Labrador/mix. (He was a stray that my family adopted--short hair.) My vet introduced me to a new product (at the time) made by Bayer. It's a flea collar called Seresto that is sold on Amazon. I couldn't believe that a flea collar would really work. But, after having to hire Orkin to get the fleas out of my home, I was willing to try it. It's the best product that I have used for fleas and ticks. It's easy to use. I just put the collar on my dog. In few days all fleas were gone. The only ticks I ever find on my dog are the ones that he picks up during a walk or bush adventure. They are easily brushed off (when I notice them) and never attach. The collar lasts as long as advertised--8 months or in our case 5 months since he likes to swim. Unlike the drops, he is never lethargic afterwards. I have used several of these Seresto collars now and can't recommend them enough. They are sold on Amazon, by veterinarians, and I've seen them at Pet Smart as well.
