Frontline Plus for Dogs

Frontline Plus for dogs is a topical product that kills fleas within 12 hours of treatment, and ticks within 48. It is also effective for eliminating chewing lice and helps control sarcoptic mange infestations. It works by spreading over the dog's body and collecting in the oil glands of the skin, being dispersed by the natural oils. It is then drawn through the hair over the next 30 days. It can take up to 24 hours for this process to be completed. When fleas are present on your dog, it takes between 23 to 36 hours for them to lay eggs. Research has shown that Frontline will kill the adult fleas before they can lay eggs, in about 12 hours.

Frequency of Application
Research demonstrates that Frontline Plus kills adult fleas, flea eggs, and flea larvae for up to three months. Although Frontline Plus can control fleas for up to three months, if there is a high risk of reinfestation or if the pet has fleas which may cause dermatitis, a once monthly application may be needed. Frontline Plus kills ticks for at least one month. A once monthly application is recommended where tick control is needed. Frontline Plus kills chewing lice for at least one month. A once monthly application is recommended where chewing lice control is needed.

Multiple monthly treatments are recommended for the elimination of mites.
