- How often do I apply it?
- Once a month. Part the fur between the shoulder blades, apply the full tube to the skin and keep the dog from licking the spot until it dries.
- Is it the same as Frontline Plus?
- It uses the same actives, fipronil and an insect growth regulator, in a similar topical form. The carrier liquid differs, so drying time and residue can vary.
- Can I use it on puppies?
- It is labeled for puppies above the minimum age and weight on the package. Check the weight chart before dosing, and ask a vet for very young or small puppies.
- Can I use it on cats?
- No. This is a dog formula. Never apply a dog flea product to a cat; permethrin-type dog products can be toxic to cats.
- Does it kill ticks?
- It is labeled for ticks, but owner reports are mixed. In tick-heavy areas, check your dog daily and consider a vet-recommended alternative.
- Can I bathe my dog after applying it?
- Wait a couple of days before shampooing, and use a gentle shampoo after that. Frequent bathing can shorten how long the protection lasts.
