I have a two year old female cat. She goes outside on a leash while she is supervised and it is flea season now. I used to use Frontline Plus and it seemed like every other time she had an allergic reaction. Her skin would be a little red and flaky and it healed in a few days. I don't want to do that to her again but this stuff worked wonders.

Does anybody have a better experience with Advantage? I do not want to try Revolution as I have heard many bad outbreak stories about it.

Also, I phoned Banfield and their single doses of Advantage are $13.95 a dose (I do not want to get the 4-pack right now because I want to see if it will be okay)…can I just go and get it? He took my pet's information so he knows that I take my pets to that vet. I shouldn't have to bring her in, should I? The only reason that I am going to bring her in is to weigh her because she is on a diet right now and I gotta make sure I get the right weight for the Advantage doses.

Sorry this is long.
She doesn't currently have fleas but I don't want her to get them. When I rescued her she had fleas AND tapeworm so no more of that! And no, I do not currently have a dog.

I use to work for Banfield (they are overpriced!) Frontline seemed to be the best selling because it worked. However, if you cat has had a reaction to it, you can always try Advantage. You don't have to bring your pet in but you do need to have an approximate weight b/c it can make your pet sick if you give them too much.
