MORE HELPFUL INFORMATION:    

How FRONTLINE® Brand Products Work -
From the very first application, FRONTLINE kills 98–100% of existing fleas in less than 24 hours and
continues to provide fast-acting, long-lasting flea and tick control.

Fipronil, the active ingredient in all FRONTLINE Brand Products, is stored under your pet's skin, in the oil
glands, so FRONTLINE continuously reapplies to the skin and hair through the hair follicles making it
waterproof.

FRONTLINE will remain waterproof and won’t rinse off – even through your cat’s self-grooming or your dog’
s monthly bath or swim. In fact, FRONTLINE doesn't stop working for an entire month, giving your pet non-
stop flea and tick control.
FRONTLINE breaks the flea cycle.

FRONTLINE starts killing fleas and ticks as soon as they come into contact with your dog or cat.
FRONTLINE Plus also keeps future fleas from biting by killing flea eggs and larvae before they mature.

FRONTLINE breaks the tick cycle.

FRONTLINE in action

Simply apply FRONTLINE Plus between your pet's shoulders and the active ingredient, fipronil, dissolves
into the natural oils of the skin and coat. From there, it quickly spreads over your pet's entire body to
provide long-lasting, waterproof flea and tick control that keeps working for an entire month.

Application Instructions are included in each treatment kit.
Please be sure to read the instructions carefully before applying FRONTLINE Plus to your pet.


The Vet's #1 Choice against Fleas and Ticks - Dog, cat, puppy or kitten, it's easy to see why FRONTLINE®
Brand Products are the #1 choice of veterinarians to control fleas and ticks on your pet.

Sometimes, pet owners think that their animal couldn't possibly have fleas or ticks. The reality is that every
pet, dog or cat, is at risk for fleas and ticks.

Even indoor cats are at risk for getting fleas, especially if cats share a household with dogs. Cats are
constant groomers, so fleas are not always as obvious as they are on a dog.

Because it is waterproof, FRONTLINE is ideal for dogs and cats providing ongoing protection, even if your
pet is caught in the rain or has a bath.
