Why
Choose Frontline Plus?
|
Frontline is recommended by
more veterinarians for flea and tick control for dogs and
cats than any other brand.
Frontline Plus offers long-lasting and the most complete flea and tick
control available by quickly killing 100% of the fleas and ticks on your pet
within 48 hours or less.
In addition to the
same strong coverage offered by Frontline Top Spot,
Frontline Plus also kills flea eggs and larvae.
Frontline Plus completely breaks the flea life cycle by effectively stopping
the development of new fleas and it kills all stages of 4 major ticks
including the one which may carry Lyme disease. The benefits of Frontline
Plus include:
Frontline kills 98 to 100%
of existing fleas in less than 24 hours and continues to provide
fast-acting, long-lasting flea and tick control for 30 days or more. The
active ingredient in Frontline products is Fipronil, which is stored under
your pet's skin, in the oil glands. As a result, Frontline is continuously
reapplied to the skin and hair through the hair follicles making it
waterproof. Fipronil is a phenylpyrazole antiparasitic agent. Fipronil's
mechanism of action in invertebrates is to interfere with the passage of
chloride ions in GABA regulated chloride channels, which effectively
disrupts CNS activity.
Frontline Plus also
contains the active ingredient Methoprene which is an insect growth
regulator (IGR). Methoprene works on certain pests in their immature (egg
and larvae) stages, which breaks the cycle of infestations and prevents
re-infestations. Immature pests exposed to Methoprene do not reach
adulthood and cannot reproduce.
To apply, simply
squeeze Frontline Plus or Top Spot between your pet's shoulders and the
active ingredient, fipronil, will quickly dissolve into the natural oils of
the skin and coat. It rapidly spreads over your pet's entire body to
provide long-lasting, waterproof flea and tick control that keeps working
for a full 30 days.
