« Frontline Plus to make your dog unwelcome to fleas & ticks »

We've been using this for Wolfie, our fantastic Norwich terrier ever since we got him at the age of eight weeks.

Frontline Plus is the undisputed gold standard of protection against parasites for both dogs & cats of all breeds & sizes.

Like everything else I buy online, I use only the most reliable merchant websites & choose the one offering the lowest price & best delivery terms. For my last order, the Amazon marketplace offered the best deal.

Which reminds me to recommend signing up for Amazon Prime if you do a lot of online shopping. Shipping costs can add up to a considerable amount over time, & I find that the annual fee for Amazon Prime saves me tons of money on shipping costs & makes Amazon's customarily attractive pricing even more competitive.

« becareful when buying online »

My first experience with buying Frontline from an Amazon seller was great. It kept the fleas off the entire month for 6 months in a row. The second time, the Frontline I got must have been a fake and didn't work at all. At first I thought my dog was just rolling in a flea farm so after two months of applications, I took her to the vet for advice.

My vet told me that the Frontline brand is extremely good, and since we apply it correctly, the only reason that it wouldn't work is if we got a bogus Frontline from an online retailer.

So we switched to buying Advantage from my vet. I do not want to risk spending $70 on fake Frontline again.

« Frontline Plus NO LONGER WORKS FOR FLEAS on my dog! »

I have used Frontline Plus several for several years and thought it was a good product until last year when I had very limited success getting rid of fleas late in the season even though I had used Frontline Plus all summer. This year we have only one pet and I again bought Frontline Plus as well as Capstar pill before I saw any indication of fleas. Two weeks later there were a LOT of fleas and the dog is having a reaction. The vet suggested that they have had more complaints this year and they feel the fleas are developing an immunity to the product. The vet suggested trying a different product which I am currently doing. I called the Frontline Plus guarantee number and they were not helpful nor very nice. She said you had to use the product for three consecutive months to qualify for the guarantee. The flea problem has grown in two weeks at an unbelievable rate so what would it be in THREE MONTHS!!!! I felt I'm entitled to a refund of at least some of the product or replacement product cost. I'm not asking for refund of vet's bill for skin problems due to these fleas and the problem is getting worse since the fleas are worse. I'm only asking for part refund of the product I purchased which is NOT inexpensive. Anyway, I suggest anyone who is thinking of using this product to think about the alternative products and stay away from this company as they have every excuse and NO real guarantee of anything.

« DID NOT work for me & very deceptive "satisfaction guarantee" »

I am VERY disappointed with this product and the company (Merial) that makes it. I have a small 4.5# dog (indoor except for pottying, 4 mos. old, only pet,) that has a mild case of fleas - no tics or other pests. After applying the product 2.5 wks. ago and after one week following the application, I only saw a small reduction in scratching. Still found a few live fleas; it clearly did not work for MY dog. When I called the company re: their "Satisfaction Guarantee" prominently placed on their packaging, I was told that in order to claim a refund, I needed to use the product for 3 consecutive months before a "refund would be considered"! Nowhere on the box does it say that. When I mentioned that to them, they said that if I had gone to their website (which I never had nor had a reason to), it is THERE that I would have seen the limitations of their "satisfaction guarantee". That's VERY deceptive and illegal to tie unwritten limitations on their packaging to their guarantee when it is not stated on their pkg. (What if their unwritten policy required 6 mos. usage, as an example, before refund is considered?) Satisfaction guaranteed means just that: if you're not satisfied (and I am NOT!), you get your money back. If the pkg. said, "Satisfaction guaranteed AFTER 3 mos. of usage", I wouldn't be arguing here. They told me that Frontline was not designed to repel fleas, so it's of no help if another flea(s) comes around after application. It only will "kill" them once they are on the dog after a day or so, which it certainly didn't for me. To adhere to THEIR requirements of minimum 3 mos. usage means that my dog would have to continue to suffer scratching and itching for another 2.25 months, which is ridiculous. I will NEVER buy this product again nor do I recommend it. If they are so deceptive about their "Satisfaction Guarantee" then what else are they deceptive about? (I have been told, but haven't verified, that Advantix DOES repel them so I will try that brand. Note added here: My reading the reviews of Advantix show a GREAT many severe reactions, even death, using that product - so no way. Seems Advantage might be much better to try, based on the reviews here.)
