Frontline Flea and Tick Medication

How quickly does FRONTLINE flea and tick protection kill parasites?
When it comes to pet flea control supplies, FRONTLINE products are best of breed. Our research shows FRONTLINE for dogs and cats will kill 100% of your pet's fleas within 18 hours and kills 100% of your pet's ticks within 48 hours of application.

Do fleas and ticks have to bite my pet for FRONTLINE to work?
No. FRONTLINE supplies your pet with protection if fleas simply come into contact with your pet's coat within the post-application time periods mentioned above.

I just applied FRONTLINE, but I still see active fleas. Why?
Fipronil, an active ingredient of FRONTLINE, works by blocking stabilizing ions in the neurons of invertebrates like fleas. Without the stabilizing ions, the fleas die from hyperstimulation. This means that the fleas may become slightly more active just before they die. However, you should rest assured that this is a sign that FRONTLINE is working.

I treated my pet with FRONTLINE, but I still see fleas in my home. Why?
The fleas you see may have hatched from flea eggs that were laid before you began using FRONTLINE for dogs and cats. Regular application of FRONTLINE flea and tick protection to your pet will break the flea's life cycle.

How does FRONTLINE kill fleas before they can lay eggs on my pet?
An adult flea must be present on your pet for at least 24 to 36 hours before it can lay eggs. Our research indicates that FRONTLINE will kill your pet's fleas within 18 hours of application--before the fleas can lay eggs.

How Frontline Works
With FRONTLINE, you're providing fast-acting, long-lasting flea and tick control for your dog or cat from the very first application. Fipronil, the active ingredient in all FRONTLINE Brand Products, is stored under your pet's skin in their oil glands. Because of this, FRONTLINE doesn't rinse off, even with repeated bathing. In fact, FRONTLINE doesn't stop working for an entire month or more, giving your dog or cat superior protection from fleas and ticks.

Some products only kill fleas or ticks after they've already bitten your pet. FRONTLINE doesn't wait for a flea or tick to bite your pet; it kills fleas and ticks when they come in contact with your dog or cat. FRONTLINE Plus also keeps future fleas from biting your dog or cat by killing flea eggs and larvae before they turn into adults.

You don't have to bother with separate flea and tick control products when you use FRONTLINE. That's because FRONTLINE offers COMPLETE protection from fleas AND ticks in one easy application. And, FRONTLINE is gentle enough for puppies and kittens.Home > FRONTLINE Products > How FRONTLINE Works

When you squeeze FRONTLINE between your pet's shoulders, the active ingredient, fipronil, dissolves into the natural oils of your dog's or cat's skin and coat. From there, it spreads over your pet's entire body to provide long-lasting flea and tick protection that keeps working for an entire month or more -- even after repeated shampooing.
