Dual-Action Defense for Your Dog
Frontline Plus is formulated to provide comprehensive 30-day protection by targeting parasites at multiple life stages. This "inside-out" approach is critical for maintaining a pest-free environment:
-
Fipronil: This ingredient targets adult fleas and ticks on contact. It stores itself in the oil glands of your dog's skin and is continuously reapplied to the coat via hair follicles.
-
** (S)-methoprene:** As an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR), this ingredient interferes with the development of flea eggs and larvae. By destroying the next generation of pests, it breaks the flea life cycle and reduces the risk of an infestation in your home.
-
Broad Coverage: Beyond fleas, Frontline Plus is designed to help control chewing lice and various tick species, including those that may transmit Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
Application and Safety
For maximum efficacy, Frontline Plus should be applied monthly. The application is a simple "spot-on" process:
1: Prepare: Snap the tip of the applicator away from your face.
2: Part the Fur: Part the hair between the shoulder blades until the skin is visible.
3: Apply: Squeeze the entire contents onto a single spot directly on the skin.
4: Dry Time: Ensure the area is dry before touching. Wait 24 to 48 hours before allowing your dog to swim or receive a bath.
Frontline Plus is safe for puppies aged 8 weeks and older, as well as breeding, pregnant, or nursing dogs. It remains 100% waterproof for a full month after the initial 24-hour drying period.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly does Frontline Plus start working?
Frontline Plus begins killing fleas within 4 to 12 hours of application. You may notice fleas rising to the top of your dog's coat shortly after treatment; this is normal, as the medication overstimulates their nervous system before they perish.
Why am I still seeing fleas after application?
If you see fleas weeks after treatment, they are likely new fleas emerging from the environment (carpets or yard) that were laid as eggs before you started the treatment. Consistent monthly application will eventually break this environmental cycle.
Does Frontline Plus expire?
Frontline Plus has no expiration date as long as it is stored at room temperature and kept sealed in its original child-resistant packaging.
