Why does my dog still has flees after Frontline aplication??

[myhorsefantasia]

We always use frontline plus on our dog. Last month we were 2 weeks late giving it to him and he got flees. We treated him and 3 weeks latter he is still scratching and still has flees??? Any one had this problem? We treated him again even know it's only been 3 weeks since the last treetment. I hope this works this time. Oh yah we also washed him with flee soap the first time we saw the flees and before we treated him. Help he is miserable scratching ALL THE TIME !!!!!

Frontline works great for my dog. Maybe it's not because of the fleas why he's still scratching. Send him to the vet. Yours might be a different case.

i agree with joey. there may be other reasons why your dog is still scratching and a vet will be able to help you on this. another thing, you might need to completely clean the areas where your dog usually hangs out.

or it could be that frontline just isn't working for your dog. try other brands first and see if they work better on your pets. good luck!

have you gone to the vet? if frontline's not that effective, then explore other brands of medication.

[Megan Turnbull]

i agree that if one product is not working well, you must try another product. but make sure to check with a vet before you give it to your pet.

[Amelia Bowman]

yes. don't just go changing treatment products without asking for an expert's advice.

do you regularly use frontline or only for a period of time? i think for the product to be effective, you have to keep using it consistently; otherwise, the fleas are back with a vengeance!
