Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / October 2007advantage or frontline
I just used advantage or frontline one of the 2, on my cat today, and the fleas are falling off of her 1/2 dead. They are not jumping away like they used to. Can I give her a bath too,(Don't think shell like it) or will that affect the usefulness of the product. Thanks, Tony yes you will have to retreat >I just used advantage or frontline one of the 2, on my cat today, and the > fleas are falling off of her 1/2 dead. > They are not jumping away like they used to. > Can I give her a bath too,(Don't think shell like it) or will that affect > the usefulness of the product. > Thanks, Tony > I just used advantage or frontline one of the 2, on my cat today, and the > fleas are falling off of her 1/2 dead. > They are not jumping away like they used to. > Can I give her a bath too,(Don't think shell like it) or will that affect > the usefulness of the product. > Thanks, Tony Yes, a bath will reduce the usefulness of the product. Don't bathe the cat for at least two days before or after using the product. I believe this is in the instructions. It used to be. It's the natural oils on your pet's skin that spread the flea killer around. Bath = no oil = no effectiveness.

Tthe fleas will all be gone shortly, just comb or brush to remove the flea dirt. No need to bathe a cat unless they have something toxic in their fur. And the medication will be washed away during the bath as it is designed to spread throughout the skin. Paul > No need to bathe.

Cleopatra looks and feels so much better. Tony I am starting to see fleas on her again, and she is scratching, is it too soon to put another treatment on her. I used it on Sept. 14th. Also has anyone heard of something you can buy at Wal mart, supposed to be made by Ortho, and I'm not sure if you mix it or what, but Someone was telling me about it, and you put it in an old windex bottle and spray the rugs and the like .She said it worked well, but I could not find it at wal mart. Said it was cheaper like this than the pre mixed or smaller bottle.
