Q. What if my cat licks the application site?
A. Apply FRONTLINE® Spot On to an area where your cat cannot lick it off. If licking occurs while the application site is still wet, your cat may show increased salivation for a short time due mainly to the nature of the carrier.

Q. How quickly will FRONTLINE® Spot On act to kill the fleas on my cat?
A. FRONTLINE® Spot On spreads from the site of treatment to cover your cat within 24 hours. It acts to kill the fleas within 24 hours of contact and lasts for up to 5 weeks.

Q. Will FRONTLINE® Spot On prevent new fleas from landing on my cat?
A. No, new fleas may still jump onto your pet from the environment. However, these fleas will be killed within 24 hours of arriving on your pet’s coat.

Q. Will FRONTLINE® Spot On prevent ticks attaching to my cat?
A. No, ticks may still attach but will be killed within the first 48 hours. Once dead, ticks will often drop off your pet. Any remaining dead ticks may normally be easily removed by a gentle pull, preferably with tweezers.

Q. How does FRONTLINE® Spot On act to kill fleas, ticks and lice?
A. FRONTLINE® Spot On contains the active ingredient fipronil which is a member of the phenylpyrazole family of insecticides. It remains on the surface of the skin and acts on contact to cause rapid death of the target parasites without the need for them to bite your pet first. Fipronil is a non-organophosphate compound.
