It sounds like you're concerned about your cat's persistent fleas even after applying Frontline. It's important to ensure the treatment is working correctly and determine if a different approach is needed.
- Frontline may take time to show full effects.
- Consider environmental factors for persistent fleas.
- Consult a vet before reapplying treatments.
While Frontline is a well-known flea treatment, it can sometimes take a bit longer to see its full effect, especially if there is a high flea burden in your home environment. Ensure you have applied the treatment correctly, and consider treating your home to address any fleas in your living space. Reapplying too soon can potentially harm your cat, so it's crucial to follow recommended guidelines. If the situation persists and you're unsure, it might be best to consult with a vet.
