Amazon Basics PreventativeTopical Flea Treatment for Medium Cats (5-9 Pounds), 6 Count

I have two 7 year old female cats, one of which spends half the day outside. For a year I treated my indoor only cat with this flea treatment, and used a prescription flea and tick topical treatment for my outdoor cat. However, when I wasn't able to get the prescription treatment, I used this on my outdoor cat, and was pleasantly surprised with the result. I have continued to use it on both cats for 6 months now, and we have remained flea free! We live in a heavily wooded area, and my cat often naps out in the woods, so that's a testament to the effectiveness of this product. Also, and most importantly, my cats have never had a reaction to the formula, which can be very scary, and is always a main concern when using flea preventatives on your fur babies. I'm very grateful for this product as it's effective a wonderful value. I recommend giving it a try!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I picked the product for price with hopes that it would work. My my cat Jason the orange I had taken him outside for 30 minutes the other day he rolled around in the dirt in the grass. Then about a week or two later I noticed him scratching excessively grooming. At a moment when I was sitting on the sofa watching a movie I had a flea jump on me as he was laying next to me. So I bought this along with a Amazon branded flea collar I didn't shampoo him or do anything like that but the two together fix the problem I got the flea collar the day before I got this product that you put on the base of his neck where it meets his head. There was no foul odor or anything like that coming from the product it was easy to apply. It's also important to note that each little vial I believe it comes with three is not filled up all the way it's only filled up about 1/8 of the way. I saw this by using my phone's flashlight and holding it to the back of one of the vials. It doesn't take a lot to do the job. Great product highly recommend. I think if your animal is heavily infested I would try a dip or at least a shampoo medicated. Then a collar and this product. But if it's like my Jason the orange experienced just the beginning stages of infestation the combo work fabulously

Okay, so it's not revolution plus, but it does offer flea control, it's easy to apply, the smell is as you would expect from other medications, so nothing different much in those areas.It's not going to cure heartworms like revolution, it's not going to kill ear mites from what I've noticed, but this is only my second time buying it, so I will report back with any noticeable improvements. It's half the price of other, and works the same. Like I said, the only flea treatment I would say is better than this one would be revolution plus, because that does kill everything, but at $22 a dose, it's no wonder. This comes out to less than $4 a dose.I noticed as soon as I put it on, there is scratching, but after that, it is calmed down. This is typical with all flea medications, because if your pet does have live fleas they run up to the face area, so your pet is going to scratch. That should subside in about 24 to 48 hours, however.

On July 14 I treated 7 cats with this product. On July 30th I find my cats covered with fleas. Product says it last 4 weeks and do not retreat for 4 weeks. What do I do leave cats covered with fleas. I bought more so could retreat those cats and others I have. Now I have a bunch of useless cats flea treatment, out a lot of money and have cats to was with flea soap but now way to retreat for 2 more weeks. Amazon has sold me a useless product and my cats suffer

We have been trying some of the other brandname ones and none of them were working even after doing it for several months, this one worked the 1st or 2 day it's a life saver for this 4-cat household.

Bought this for cats and bought the Amazon version for dogs too and both don’t work! 2 treatments and they keep getting fleas. Asked vet about it and he said animals are resistant to this.

Works great for my 4 cats. Cheaper than name brand but just as effective.

I have four cats. Subscribing to this has been a god send. No side effects, no bugs! I would call that a win ! The smell is the same as any other flea medication. So take that as you will. But all four of mine have done great. We have one cat with skin allergies , no issues there either.
