I bought Advantage for both cats under 9 lbs and dogs under 10 lbs for my parents. They have 3 cats and 2 dogs that became subject to a plague of fleas during the 2 weeks I was visiting.

I've used Frontline for my 2 dogs in the past and was very happy with it, but for 5 animals Frontline is a big expense. Advantage is a little less expensive. I researched the differences between the two and basically it comes down to Frontline will also handle ticks whereas Advantage is just for fleas. People seemed happy with both products.

Biospot is cheaper than both but totally useless. I was a little anxious about using Advantage without knowing if it worked as well as Frontline.

We put it on all the animals the afternoon the package arrived. That night one of the cats was sitting on me. I got up to go to the store and noticed two fleas on me. Later she was on me again and when I got up there were 8! She moved to my father's lap and when he got up he had 17 on him. All the fleas were dying and moving from their food source, but alas it was too late for them.

I didn't realize how many fleas the animals had. Advantage worked great. I am not sure how it will do in the long run, but the pets are relieved for now.

I still use Frontline for my dogs because we go hiking where there are ticks galore. Advantage is a good solution for my folks because their pets stay indoors or their yard. I think the applicator is easier to use with Advantage. None of our pets had any adverse effects from using either product.

My chorkie (teacup yorkie/chiuaua) Maggie was constantly chewing on herself. In Riverside the flea population is ridiculous! flea shampoos have never worked and my poor baby was chewing herself to death. She lost most of the fur on her bum and had flea allergy dermatitis. After I applied the Advantage she stopped itching immediately!!!!! Its been a month and we're going to give her a second application some time this week but her skin and coat are much better. She's even EATING BETTER!!! three big meals a day! She gained weight and is now a healthy 4 pounds. Thank You ADVANTAGE!!! you're a life saver! NOT ONE FLEA IN A MONTH!

What else can I say beside IT WORKS! Bought the 4 month supply, but only use 2 of them, keeping the other 2 just in case.
What a difference after only 2 dose of this stuff, we were able to catch the disoriented fleas with our fingers and squash them with a hammer =). Our west highland terrier is much happier now! No more fleas visible on our dog 2 weeks after the 2nd dose, so we stop using them. It has been over 5 months now and we haven't seen any of them return.
