Frontline Plus for Cats and Kittens Flea and Tick Treatment,3 Doses (1.5 lbs)

The day after applying it my cat lost hair in the area affected by the product. his skin is all irritated

Fake product, no expiry day on box and product. Original product have expiry date on it.

Counterfeit product, do not buy Issues included: - 1 of the 4 boxes contained doses labelled as Frontline Plus for dogs - and the lot numbers for the dog and cat does were all the same (all Lot X61002), none of which corresponded with the lot number on the boxes (all X41604AW) - There was no expiry dates on any doses - All 4 boxes were printed with "For dog use only" on the side - The security stickers do not show small rings, which is characteristic of the security stickers from Boehringer Ingelheim - When opening the boxes, there was no tearing along the seams as the legitimate ones should - ⁠one of the inserts referred to dogs (with stickers for monthly reminders), and the opposite side had more info for cats (but not a sticker page)

Ok

States tick control in picture - box that arrived was not tick control. This is flea control only.

Pros: trusted brand, easy-to-use applicators Cons: packaging lacks some info, very hard to keep animals from eating it This review is based on my unique experience with this product. I recently found a flea on one of my cats and immediately began to panic. "Does my cat really have fleas?" I was in denial for a few days until I saw another flea on my other cat. The fleas clearly weren't leaving, so this meant war. I went out and purchased several flea traps and realized I should also get some flea medicine to kill any fleas or eggs on the cats, so I came to Amazon. I'm familiar with the Frontline Plus brand so I felt confident in my order. After opening the package, I noticed simple instructions for applying the gel (which is stored in little plastic applicators) to the cats. It was relieving to know I wouldn't have to do any measuring - just 1 disposable applicator per cat. The packaging says not to "let your cats eat" the gel, so if you have multiple cats you will have to separate them for 24 hours or until the gel has dried. It took around 6 hours for it to dry. One frustrating, semi-worrying thing (and the reason my review is 4 stars and not 5) is that there were no instructions on what to do if they cat managed to lick the gel. It simply said "don't let them eat it." If you own a cat, you know they're very wiggly creatures, and that is only exacerbated by the fact that you're trying to pin them down and put some strange smelling liquid at the base of their skull. They're also very flexible creatures, so it became apparent very quickly that it was going to be impossible to stop the cats from licking the gel. If you manage to put it in the right spot just at the base of their skull where they can't lick it, they can still scratch that part of their head with their foot and will end up eating the gel that way. You can imagine at this point, I began to get a little worried, especially with the packaging saying "don't let them eat it" without telling you what to do if they do eat it. After some googling and redditing I realized my cats were safe. The gel is relatively non-toxic as long as you don't give them too much of it. If you follow the minimum age and weight requirements and NEVER give flea medicine meant for dogs to your cat, your furry friend should be fine. Overall, the product does what it says it does. If your cat has fleas, this will help tremendously with wiping them out. I would highly recommend a flea trap for carpeted areas of your home to kill any fleas that managed to jump off of your cat. I was shocked at the amount of fleas the trap picked up. The trap I used was the Victor M230 Ultimate Flea Trap, which you can purchase on Amazon here: http://amzn.to/2b1NfPu

This stuff works wonders. I missed a few treatments with my dog and she eventually brought fleas into the house and gave them to out newly adopted cat. I ordered this stuff and gave it a shot. Not long after applying it, the cat completely stopped scratching and the fleas were gone. Buy you some, you won't regret it
