Frontline Plus for Dogs

Frontline Plus Flea and Tick Control for Dogs

One of the most popular flea and tick control treatments for dogs, Frontline Plus is as an easy-to-apply topical treatment. Frontline Plus kills fleas, ticks, and all flea life stages. Due to its waterproof property, Frontline Plus remains effective even after your dog gets wet and gives lasting protection for an entire month. This highly effective monthly treatment is suitable for all dog breeds.

It kills 100% fleas within 24 hours and ticks and chewing lice within 48 hours of application. Fipronil and S-Methoprene are the active ingredients present in Frontline Plus. The insecticide Fipronil attacks the central nervous system of parasites, paralyze them and eventually kill them. The other ingredient (s)-Methoprene is an IGR - Insect Growth Regulator that inhibits the growth of juvenile stages of parasites and prevents further re-infestations.

Frontline Plus provides month-long protection to dogs and protects them from flea and tick-borne diseases. The topical treatment kills all flea life stages including egg, larvae, and pupae and thus, eliminates chances of re-infestations.

Please be informed that as Merial is now part of Boehringer Ingelheim, the manufacturer’s name may vary on the product packs according to the stock availability.
