Why FRONTLINE Spot On – and how to use it

One female flea can lay up to 50 eggs a day, so you could have a large infestation on your hands before you know it. This is why prevention is definitely better than cure where fleas are concerned. Because your pet can catch fleas whenever they go out – fleas can jump onto your pet in seconds and lay eggs which drop off around your home 24 hours later.

With regular FRONTLINE Spot On treatment, however, you can break the flea life cycle.

Stay flea-free in 1, 2, 3

Step 1

Use FRONTLINE Spot On regularly to kill adult fleas on your pet.
Treat cats every 5 weeks and dogs every 2 months.

Step 2

Make sure all cats and dogs are treated because each pet can
act as a host for a flea infestation.

Step 3

Regularly vacuum your carpets and furnishings and wash your pet’s
bedding above 60ºC. This will help to reduce the number of any
flea eggs, larvae and pupae.

How to apply FRONTLINE Spot On

Step 1

Make sure you know your pet’s weight so you can choose the right
size pipette. Break back the snap-off top along the scored line.

Step 2

Part your pet’s coat between the shoulder blades until you
can see their skin.

Step 3

Place the tip of the pipette on the skin and squeeze
gently to empty the contents on their skin.

You can hug your pet as usual as soon as the site is dry.

The trouble with ticks

Found in areas of heathland, woodland and increasingly in urban parks and gardens, ticks are an increasing problem in the UK and can cause serious health issues. They are second only to mosquitoes in transmitting infectious disease to humans and animals.

Ticks can:

  • Cause irritation
  • Lead to an abscess
  • Transmit diseases such as Lyme disease, which also affects humans.

How to kill ticks

  • Apply FRONTLINE Spot On to your pet (see opposite).
  • Within 48 hours they should die and drop off naturally.
  • If they don’t, gently remove them using tweezers. If this doesn’t work, contact your vet.
