FRONTLINE Spot On for Dogs is used for the treatment and prevention of infestations by fleas (Ctenocephalides spp.) and ticks (Rhipicephalus spp., Dermacentor spp. and Ixodes spp.) and as part of a treatment strategy for Flea Allergy Dermatitis, where this has been previously diagnosed by a veterinary surgeon. The product controls infestations with Trichodectes canis biting lice on dogs. FRONTLINE Spot On acts by direct contact with parasites and not via your pets bloodstream. It kills fleas within 24 hours without requiring them to bite your pet.
FRONTLINE Spot On is applied externally to your pets skin on the back of the neck. The active ingredient, fipronil, quickly dissolves into the natural oils of your pets skin and coat, dispersing over the entire body surface within 24 hours and concentrating in the sebaceous glands (the skins oil glands) to form a reservoir. Fipronil is then secreted with the sebum (the natural oils of the skin and hair), continuously coating your pets skin and hair for several weeks after application - in fact it's the longest-lasting spot on flea treatment available.
