How It Works
Frontline Plus contains two active ingredients to provide comprehensive parasite protection:
- Fipronil (100g/L) – Kills adult fleas and ticks on contact.
- (S)-methoprene (90g/L) – An insect growth regulator that stops flea eggs and larvae from developing into adults, preventing infestations in your home and on your pet.
Once applied, the treatment spreads within 24 hours, collecting in the hair follicles and skin oils. It is then continuously released, ensuring long-lasting protection.
