Frontline Spray provides effective flea and control for dogs, puppies, cat and kittens as young as one day old. The spray formulation ensures that Fipronil, the active ingredient, is immediately distributed over the entire body, killing fleas shortly after application. Control is long lasting and and can be used on pregnant and lactating females.
Frontline Spray can also be used as an aid to control flea allergy dermatitis (FAD) as well as in the control of sarcoptic mange in dogs.
Frontline Spray has a residual effect of 1 month (3-5 weeks) against ticks and 2 months (1-3 months) against fleas, depending on how many parasites are found in the pets environment.
