Frontline Spray - 250ml

Product Information

Exceptionally, hypersalivation, reversible neurological symptoms (hyperesthesia, depression, nervous symptoms), vomiting or respiratory symptoms have been observed after use. The observed effects are likely to be more severe in puppies less than 6 months old. IF INHALED: Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. Following application of any Frontline product, it’s important to note that because fipronil causes neurologic overexcitement in the flea prior to killing it, more fleas may become visible and active following application of the product. Among the extremely rarely suspected side effects, transient skin reactions, erythema, pruritus or alopecia have been reported after use.

Ruffle the Coat: Particularly for long-haired pets, ruffle the coat to allow the product to penetrate to the skin level. If for some reason you are unsure if the product was administered correctly or whether all of it was applied, it is usually safest to not apply an additional dose. Frontline Spray must be sprayed onto your dog's or cat'sskin. The number of recommended applications depends on the weight of your pet and its coat: Do not get this product in your pet’s eyes or mouth. Apply spray mist until animal’s hair is damp to thoroughly wet. Approximately 1 to 2 pumps per pound of the animal’s body weight will be required. Pets with long or dense coats will require the higher rate. If you are fighting a flea infestation in the home, a Frontline spot-on product can break the flea life cycle.If you have any questions about application or safety for Frontline products or any topical product, make sure to get in touch with your veterinarian. Conclusion Always use medications as directed. The spray should be used at a distance of approximately 10-20cm to spray the entire of your pet but take special care to avoid their eyes. All of the fur or hair should be dampened by the solution and ruffling the animal afterwards is recommended to ensure the solution works its way down to the skin.

Apply Against Hair Growth: Spray the solution against the lay of the hair, ensuring the entire coat is dampened. While Frontline products should never be ingested, fipronil generally appears to have a low potential for toxicity both topically and even if accidentally ingested. If this occurs, the manufacturer recommends bathing with a mild soap (Dawn dish soap for example) and rinsing with lots of water. Veterinary care should be sought with any persisting or worsening signs of skin irritation. Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or doctor, or going for treatment.Often, persistent feline acne is considered to be related to an allergy or immune response. The frustrating part of it is that it is often very difficult to determine the allergen or allergens causing it, or impossible to remove the allergen if it is environmental. Removal of plastic food and water bowls and replacing them with metal or ceramic bowls is the most common recommendation, but that was probably discussed with you some time ago, perhaps still leaving the underlying cause unknown. The short answer to your questions is that no, the spray cannot be used in the same fashion as the single-dose ampules. The dose of the spray is also approximated based on body weight and does not have a well-regulated, metered dose like the ampules do. The spray may also be more cost-effective, compared to the ampules. This does make it a favorite of shelters and rescues taking in stray cats with active infestations that they don’t want to risk spreading to other animals in their care. Frontline Spray contains only fipronil, which means that it doesn’t provide as much prevention coverage as the newer spot-on product innovations Frontline Plus and Frontline GOLD. Frontline Spray can be included as part of a therapeutic treatment programme for Flea Allergy Dermatitis.
