Can i reapply frontline early
The safest option at this point is to get her a product called Capstar Nitenpyram that will rid all the fleas on her Hi and thanks for posting on PetCoach! Yes, there is no harm in using a a topical flea treatment along with sentinel. Yes, I can give you a flea treatment program for Gracie. First, I would give her Capstar. It's a one time pill that starts killing fleas within 30 minutes.
Then follow up with a spot on treatment, No this is absolutely not recommended, first of all you can overdose her, secondly i generally do not recommend flea baths for cats, they are less effective and tend to cause severe side effects Before trying a herbal remedy I would recommend to have a different flea treatment prescribed by your veterinarian. Many flea treatments as frontline for example don't work efficiently and in my Salivation can be an indication of flea treatment toxicity.
I recommend taking your cat into the vet right away, he needs medical treatment for the symptoms. You should use either one or the other, not both together. Frontline Plus should suffice for protection. Unfortunately, Sentry Pro flea and tick isn't a very good brand, and I would not recommend it. According to the package instructions, it's not safe to give another dose until 14 days after the It depends on the type of flea product you have used.
Read the instructions on the shampoo and see what it says about when you can reapply, this would be a safe time frame to apply a spot on. If your A different flea treatment such as Trifexis or Comfortis that has a different active ingredient may help. You need to treat your home environment also. If you use a pest control service, tell them Topical preventatives should be applied at least 3 days before or after bathing.

Can I reapply Frontline any quicker than 30 days? Thread starter cofe Start Date Jun 22, Joined Jun 2, Messages 7 Purraise 0. I assume the respose is ask your vet but regardless. I used a dose of Frontline Plus on my 16 pound cat on the 30th. For the 1st couple weeks it worked quite well.
Now I notice that he has some again. He seems to be quite uncomfortable. You should be treating your home for adults plus the other 95 percent—flea eggs, flea larvae and flea pupae. Flea eggs and larvae can live in the environment for days or weeks. It is best to regularly vacuum all the locations of your home where your pet spends time, wash all bedding in hot water, and keep your pets on flea prevention.
Some pets will scratch more than others, but if one pet in the house has fleas, they all have fleas. All of your pets will need to stay on flea medication to prevent reinfestation. Home Dog Care Center. Published: June 12, This is a question asked by frustrated pet parents with itchy pets every day. Incorrect Application of Flea Treatment Incorrectly applying topical flea prevention is the most common cause for its failure to work.
How to Apply Each Brand of Topical Flea Treatment Applying it correctly can be very tricky because each type has a different way to open the tube and ensure that it dispenses properly. Bravecto Hold the tube upright and turn the cap one full turn.
Remove the cap and make sure that seal has been broken. Part the hair at the base of the neck and apply the entire tube to the skin. Make sure the tube is empty.
You cannot wash it off after it has soaked in. It will keep killing any fleas for 30 days. If you take the cat outside, you will see more fleas on the cat where new ones from the yard jump on the cat. I would treat the yard and keep the cat inside for a week or so.
Fleas are carried to your yard by squirrels, possums, raccoons, ect. You can get a flea comb at the pet store and use that to pull fleas out of the coat. I understand all that's been posted; thank you. I have a couple of flea combs and I understand now about Frontline being absorbed.
I understand that it doesn't repel fleas but kills them. I have woods all around my house so I know that there are fleas there. This is the first time ever that I've found any in the house. As far as my using Dawn this one time , I read on a vet page on the internet to do that and I KNOW that just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's true I am also now treating the house. Dawn is used on animals that were involved in an oil spill its the last resort to save the animial.
Highly unlikely a one time bath in it will cause lasting problems but with the surfactant system in Dawn it will also strip all natural body oils which could cause skin issues if its used as a normal routine bath. The reason Dawn will kill fleas and a normal non flea shampoo won't is do to Dawns surfactants removing the protective water proof covering over the flea allowing water to than enter the fleas lungs.
If your using a good flea treatment yet doggie still has fleas do as mentioned above treat the home Excuse me! I said bloodstream, I should of said oil glands. It IS absorbed and cannot be washed off. That is why it is such a problem when you use dog frontline on a cat. It then works continuously for 1 month as it is released from the hair follicles onto the skin and coat. I regret that my post caused such strife.
In the meantime, my pets are now all flea free. I'm treating the house and checking the wee ones daily and will continue the process. Indem Sie weiterhin auf der Website surfen bzw. Mehr erfahren. Bathroom Fixtures.
