Both of my cats get frontline once a month. Recently, I discovered they had fleas(which had never happened before) so about a week after i put on the frontline I took them in for flea baths. Two days later, I reapplied frontline. It's been about two weeks and they still have fleas. What can I do? How Do You Control Fleas In The Yard? - Blurtit::
This yard seems to have been the year for fleas. I have tried everything from Dawns dishwishing liquid to spraying pesticides. Nothing works!

Are you applying the frontline correctly? make sure you dont give them a bath 48 hours before or after application. Make sure you only put it between the shoulder blades and part the hair so it goes on the skin and NOT the hair. If it gets on the hair it wont work. Make sure your cats are also within the weight limit for the frontline you are using. It is possible for cats to still get fleas when on frontline b/c once a flea gets on them it takes 12 to 24 hours for the fleas to die. If you believe you have done all of the above and your cats are still just covered in fleas, call the 1800 number on the box of frontline they will give you your money back.

Apr 14, 2006 Advantage works best on fleas but is not as waterproof as Frontline. into carpet or upholstery and it kills fleas like nothing else.

I would switch to Advantage. I heard that fleas have developed a resistence to Frontline plus and it is getting more difficult to kill them using this.
Definitely switch to Advantage. Fleas have not become resistent to this.
Fleas only live part of their life on your pet (or you) basically long enough to feed (get blood) and then they jump off and make baby fleas. You need to use something in your home (carpets, etc) to rid the fleas. The safest thing is Boric Acid (20 Mule Team Borax) just sprinkle it in the carpets, sweep in and leave it. Dont use your Frontline more often than once a month.
