Thread: What is the Best Flea & Tick Prevention?

Flea and tick collars and any flea preparation sold in pet stores generally do not work and are a waste of money.
Frontline spot-on is the only thing that really works (although other brands are available).
It is cheaper to buy Frontline etc from an online store than from your vet. You don't need a prescription for it (in the UK).

I think you can only buy the normal frontline on line without a prescription the combo still requires one.....
I had a bad breakdown though with the Frontline combo so now use Stronghold which for some reason the cats seem to be a lot happier with having it applied,with frontline one pipette down five cats hiding now five just sit & wait the new sixth we haven't got trained yet....!

our dermatologists recommend stronghold , at the moment i use frontline combo but will swop when finished . the important thing is to follow the instrustions and do it as recommended , dont skimp on the timings x

Thanks for suggestions. I already buy my pet prescriptions, over-the-counter meds, toys, & pet food online as the prices seem to be cheaper. I will look at online pricing for flea & tick control too.
