I know you get four applications + Advantage is a little cheaper, I was
just wondering what everyone uses & why one over the other. Since I have
five cats it can get expensive .

thanks

I have two differant weight cats I buy for. Under 9lbs & over 9lbs. this
pet place here in Nashville Tn.  has a special on Wednesdays--10% off +
$5.00 off if you buy two packages. At Vet 9lbs. & over Advantage
$37.15. Nashville Pet Products is $33.89 + 10% off = $30.51 + $5.00 off
if I buy two.   $63.02-5.00= $58.02 I think under 9lbs is cheaper. I am
going WEdnesday & will post the prices for Advantage & Frontline. That
way can compare differant places prices. I am going to Petsmart to since
they are within 1/4 mile of each other. All my cats are strays nobody
wanted.

thanks

Luvy-slim

I use Advantage because it's topical and I'm not stressing Kami's
organs.  She doesn't go outside except for a few minutes on the weekend
when she wants to inspect the patio, but last summer she brought two
fleas back in with her.

I've always used Advantage on my 5 cats: Cookies, nanette, bingo,
Maliboo, & Mcduffy.

Mike, I have had a cat react badly to Frontline; he began to pant and
drool furiously, and roll around like it was burning immediately after
it was applied. I washed it off, and he was fine. However, we used
Advantage after that. I have five cats and never had them react badly
to Advantage, and it is very effective on fleas.
That's why I used Advantage.

Advantage works faster and lasts longer than Frontline.

Frontline takes care of fleas AND ticks, advantage doesnt. Do you cats
go outside? Do you have any other animals that could bring in ticks?

Not very fast or very well. By the time Frontline starts to work, your whole
house is already infested.

> advantage doesnt.

Advantage also doesn't cause adverse reactions in as many cats.   I've had
better results with Advantage on our shelter cats and dogs- that's why I
recommend it.

All of my 'Herd" goes out or lives in garage. I am surrounded by woods
back & side. Luvy is the smallest ( does not play well ) we let her out
& let Rainy in. The kittens come in at night & out in morning. Snowflake
does not come in. She was left by a neighbor who moved off. She seems
content to just sleep in garage & eat here.
All of my cats are strays.
