Re: flea injection
Frontline is one of the most effective flea medication we've got and unfortunately one of the more expensive. The product has been around for a long time and we are starting to see some resistance, which is a concern and the reason we recommend using Frontline Plus rather than Frontline TopSpot. Frontline Plus contains (S)-methoprene, an ingredient that prevents reproduction by fleas that aren't killed by Frontline alone. Because Frontline depends on natural skin oils to spread itself around, it's best to wait about two days after bathing before applying the product and avoid bathing or swimming for a couple of days afterwards.

Re: flea injection
Hi
I had my last cat injected with program. It works by rendering the adult fleas infertile and is brilliant for preventing home infestations. However, it doesn't actually kill fleas so you may need to initially de-flea in a more traditional way. Fleas live for about 2 weeks on average so once your cat/dog is injected, it will take a month or so for all the live fleas to die & any eggs already laid to hatch and die if you don't use any other methods. This is fine but remember that the flea has to bite your pet in order for Program to work. Once the cycle has been broken and all fleas are gone, it will be fine because even if your pet picks up a flea outside, as soon as it bites, it is infertile. From memory, I think it cost around 40 quid for a 6 month injection. Hope this helps. |

Re: flea injection
About 12 years ago probably just before frontline came out I used to use the program liquid that you put in your pets food in my case cats. I also used flea collars from the vet but once frontline was available I didn't bother with the program
The injection has certainly been available my way for quite a few years I have to say |
