Frontline Combo is another name for Frontline Plus topical flea drops. Identical, in all but name, these are both the same dog flea treatment,
with the same volume of the same active ingredients. Frontline Combo
offers complete dog flea and tick control when used every 30 days.
Frontline
Combo comes in packs of three or six vials of liquid. Each pack is
designed to offer the correct dose of flea killer depending on the size
of your dog. Frontline destroys adult fleas, ticks and lice already in
contact with your pet. New parasites are deterred from biting your pet
and killed if they hang around for long enough.
The
ability of Frontline to not only kill adult fleas, but also to halt the
development of flea larvae and eggs, means regular use quickly
eliminates the entire flea population in and around the home.
Frontline
Combo dog flea treatment starts killing fleas as soon as it is
applied. 18 hours after application all fleas on your pet should be
dead. Ticks and lice take a little longer, being killed within two
days. But do not worry too much as they are affected by the flea
medicine immediately, tending to loosen their grip and stop feeding.
Because
the two active ingredients in Frontline Combo are specifically designed
to target the insect nervous system and insect growth regulators, they
have no effect on larger animals. This makes Frontline Combo extremely
safe for use on our dogs, with side effects extremely rare and usually
very minor.
As
Frontline kills adult fleas quickly before they can lay eggs and also
uses an insect growth inhibitor juvenile fleas are killed before they
mature and breed. This means there should be no build up of resistance
to Frontline flea drops, in the local flea population.
Frontline
Combo requires a veterinary prescription to be sold in the UK.
However, in Canada and the US, the identical but differently named,
Frontline Plus, is available for sale without a prescription. As
Canadian online pet med pharmacies tend to be economical this is the
best place to search for cheap Frontline flea drops.
If you do not mind the name on the packet being different, you can save
money and time, as you will not need to organise a prescription from
your vet before purchasing Frontline online.
Frontline Combo is recommended for dogs that encounter large flea populations and live in areas where ticks are a regular problem.
Using Frontline Combo as your dog flea treatment ensures your pet is never passed diseases from ticks, and never experiences the difficulty of flea dermatitis or flea anaemia.
