FOR DOGS
The original spot-on flea and tick treatment
FRONTLINE® SPOT ON for Dogs is the original formula from the UK’s leading flea and tick brand. It kills fleas and ticks on your dog to help protect them from the discomfort and diseases these parasites cause.
FRONTLINE® SPOT ON is a clinically proven veterinary medicine that’s available in 1-dose, 3-dose and 6-dose packs
Use it every 4 weeks for optimal protection.
It can be applied to dogs from 8 weeks of age that weigh at least 2 kg
It can also be used on pregnant and lactating dogs
FRONTLINE® SPOT ON is a topical treatment which is applied to your dog’s skin to kill fleas and ticks through contact – meaning they don’t have to bite your dog to be killed
Bathing/shampooing/water exposure once a week does not affect the product’s effectiveness. Do not bathe your dog or let them swim for 2 days after application
If your dog is unwell, please see your vet for advice before you apply a flea treatment
FRONTLINE® SPOT ON for Dogs is not suitable for use on rabbits

Can FRONTLINE PLUS ®/FRONTLINE ® SPOT ON be used on any breed of cat and dog?
Yes, FRONTLINE PLUS®/FRONTLINE® SPOT ON can be used on any breed of cat and dog, including collies and other herding-breed dogs which can sometimes show a sensitivity to some parasite treatments.
What is the difference between FRONTLINE ® PLUS and FRONTLINE ® SPOT ON?
Both products kill fleas and ticks on your pet, however FRONTLINE® PLUS has an advanced formula that also stops flea eggs that fall off pets from hatching in your home.
Is FRONTLINE PLUS ®/FRONTLINE TRI-ACT ®/FRONTLINE ® SPOT ON dangerous to use if I have small children?
As with all licensed veterinary medicines, FRONTLINE PLUS®, FRONTLINE TRI-ACT® and FRONTLINE® SPOT ON have undergone extensive safety evaluation. When used as directed, pets treated with FRONTLINE® flea and tick treatments do not pose a health risk to children or adults. It is a recommended precaution that children or adults do not pet, play or sleep with treated animals until the application site is dry.
Where can I find the expiry date for FRONTLINE® flea and tick treatments and how long will it last once I’ve bought it?
The expiry date can be found in three places – on the side of the outer packaging, at the bottom of the pipette foil and on the pipette itself. FRONTLINE PLUS®, FRONTLINE TRI-ACT® and FRONTLINE® SPOT ON last for three years after manufacture, but how long is left of that window depends on how long it’s been on the shelf. Please do not use any product beyond its expiry date. The expiry date refers to the end of the indicated month.
Why might I see fleas on my treated pet?
If you can still see fleas on your pet after treating them, it would be natural to think that the treatment isn’t working. However, no product can repel fleas from jumping onto your pet, so it’s normal to continue to see fleas after treatment as your pet can pick up new fleas from the environment at any time.
If you’re fighting a home infestation, it’s highly likely that you’ll see fleas on your pet for 3 months or more as it can take this long to get rid of the infestation. Don't worry if you see fleas for several days in a row, today’s flea is not the one you saw yesterday. Any fleas jumping onto a treated pet will be killed within 24 hours if they’re treated with FRONTLINE PLUS® or FRONTLINE® SPOT ON, or within 6 hours if they’re treated with FRONTLINE TRI-ACT®. If you have any concerns, please contact our technical services team at petsuk@boehringer-ingelheim.com or your veterinary surgeon.

Do fleas and ticks need to bite my pet to be killed by FRONTLINE PLUS ®/FRONTLINE TRI-ACT ®/FRONTLINE ® SPOT ON?
No. FRONTLINE PLUS®, FRONTLINE TRI-ACT® and FRONTLINE® SPOT ON act topically, which means that fleas and ticks are killed through contact with your pet’s skin and coat – they don’t need to bite to be killed.
