Flea Topical
The easiest and most effective way to treat flea problems is with prescription flea topical products. These products are available from your veterinarian and come in varieties for both dogs and cats. Top brands include Frontline, Revolution and Advantage. While you can find topical treatments in stores they are just not as effective as the products your vet carries. Also, you should always consult your vet before giving your dog or cat any kind of treatment.
These products available from the vet are very easy to use. Although there are different varieties for dogs and cats, the products are applied in the same way. You will need to wait until your pet is calm. If you have a leash you may want to put your pet on it to keep them from getting away, especially if this is the first time you've used this kind of product on your pet. Application is painless and all you do is part the fur on the back of your pet's neck. Place the opened applicator on the skin and squeeze only twice to administer the treatment.
The treatment is absorbed into the skin and immediately begins killing fleas, ticks and larvae. These products are very safe and gentle for your pet and side effects rarely occur. With some flea medications pets may occasionally experience digestive or neurological side effects but this is very uncommon. Your vet can explain more to you about the potential side effects and risks of any product they recommend for your pet. For millions of animals topical flea products provide safe protection from fleas and other pests.
When selecting flea topical products your vet will tell you the choices available, the difference between them and how much each product is. Some prescription products may cost more than others. If you want to shop around, get a prescription from your vet and go online. At stores like 1-800-Pet-Meds and Drs. Foster and Smith, you can fill your pet's prescriptions and pick up any supplies you may need. Many major online pet supply stores offer discounts and coupon codes that can save you money on the cost of your order. One thing you should know is that any prescription products you order must be verified with your vet before your product can be shipped.
