Frontline Plus Effectiveness Against Fleas and Ticks

Frontline Plus comes highly recommended by veterinarians across the country, but how effective is it?


Testing of the product shows that Frontline Plus kills between 98% and 100% of fleas, their larvae, and eggs present on host animals. Similiar numbers were seen with ticks. Repeated treatments show a kill rate of 100%.

Ticks come in a wide variety of species, and some types of ticks are a bit more resiliant to pesticides. The three major forms of ticks are:

The American Dog Tick
The Deer Tick
The Long Star Tick

Frontline Plus has been shown to kill 98 – 100% of these tick varieties which are known to spread Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Fever.
