Preventative Topical Flea Treatment and Prevention for Large Cats (Over 9 Pounds), Kills Fleas Within 12 Hours, 6 Count

This was my first personal experience with any Amazon Basics branded product and I have been beyond satisfied, I've been legitimately surprised at how well this flea treatment has worked. Nearly every review of an Amazon Basics product I've seen or read has been overwhelminly positive so I had high hopes before it even arrived. There is essentially zero difference in the efficacy & duration of action between the expensive comparable name brands and this. The box says to compare it to the Advantage II equivalent, which I have experience with. While the ingredients and all seem identical and likely are identical, it genuinely seemed to me that not only did this brand work just as well and as fast as Advantage II, it seemed to last slightly longer (I doubt there was a noteable difference if there was a difference at all). Bottom line is that you are essentially getting the most respected, best performing, highest quality topical flea treatment for cats on the market for half the price. If you liked Advantage II & it worked well for you, I couldn't recommend the Amazon Basics equivalent more. It's like you're paying double the price to get the same actual product in an expensive brand's packaging. Most topical flea treatments that I've used in the past have been fairly easy to apply and this product was no different. In fact, because of how the application nozzle was shaped, this product was slightly easier to apply than most. The nozzle is designed in a way that makes it effortless to easily & quickly move thru the fur without snagging, allowing you to quickly apply it directly to the skin. Application is so quick and easy that it takes literal seconds and can be completed before your cat has a chance to realize something is going on. It doesn't take much time at all before it is very clearly working. In under an hour, fleas will quickly begin dropping dead. This product doesn't gradually eliminate fleas, it eradicates them with a vengeance and aggression. Once it begins working, a layer of dead fleas will be left behind any place your cat stays for more than a short moment. The efficacy is legitimately impressive. Surprisingly, for a product that works so strongly in such a short amount of time, I have noticed my cats experiencing exactly zero instances of negative issues such as irritated skin (even exactly where it was applied). The easy application process and the effective yet gentle medications used make for a product that does exactly what it claims to do without seeming to cause any physically or mental discomfort for cats. I have 4 cats all with varying fur types, lengths, thickness, etc. This product seems to work equally well and for just as long on all 4 so it appears that if applied correctly, the fur type doesn't have much, if any, impact on product performance.

In the past I tried a topical flea treatment from the grocery store, and my cat had an extreme allergic reaction to it. This is the first flea treatment I have tried since then, and except for my cat being unhappy that I gave him a flea treatment, there were no negative effects or allergies. It has given me peace of mind knowing that my cat won’t be having fleas which can make him sick, and there won’t be any itching and inflamed skin. Also, what a great deal that 6 doses are included, which makes this very economical! I will be buying more in the future.

I have 4 cats so flea meds costs add up very quick. My orange cat (pictured here) is allergic to flea bites so it’s very very important that I keep up with their treatment. This product is very affordable and works well! My orange guy doesn’t chew himself until he bleeds anymore and I’m able to easily keep up with his monthly doses.

Love this stuff been using it for years with no problems! Use it regularly and you'll have no fleas/eggs! It's safe for my boys (they thankfully don't have any allergies). It's very affordable and its a slow release so it makes sure to get everything over time. Again make sure you are using it regularly to make sure you don't get any new fleas ontop of the ones you're trying to get rid of! Yes it's slow release but you have to use it as directed for optimal results!! It doesn't have a strong or offensive odor and it dries pretty quickly (4/6hrs usually) but best to leave the fur babies alone for 24hrs to make sure all of it stays on.

I purchased this last summer for my 5 fat cats in the middle of a severe flea infestation. The fleas were killed almost instantly, within 24 hrs the flea population was iradicated. Much to my dismay within 2 weeks the fleas had returned and the cats were miserable again and had to be retreated for fleas. Works well but doesn't last.

We get fleas in the late fall where I live instead of the summer and all our pets were bothered this year. We are on a very tight budget and wanted something inexpensive that hopefully worked. We treated 4 cats aged 3-16 with this. Tested them with a flea comb three days after applying, and there were no more fleas! I have also purchased Amazon's dog formula that also worked great. No side effects. Could be easier to use like a tube like some brands instead of a hard square does not squeeze out quickly, but that is my only complaint. Smells strong but only for about 24 hours.

This product has the exact same ingredients as a couple of the higher priced formulas for a fraction of the price. One ingredient kills adult fleas and one ingredient inhibits futher infestation from eggs. I still see an apparent flea bite reaction from time to time but we are in Texas and fleas are incredibly bad especially so far this year so it is a 95 percent improvement over no topical. The med soaked in quickly which is nice seeing as we Nickname flea meds "hot lava" around here because one cat hates it so much. Other than the emotional wounds he suffers, they tolerate the med with no problem noted. If you use Advecta or Advantage 2 this product is comparable to those and I actually have to shout out Amazon Basics on this quality product at an affordable price and taking a little stress off of pet owners.

I have three cats; all of them tolerated the medication well, but weirdly enough, one of my cats got an ear infection soon after giving them the medicine. I am not sure if it was related, but I feel like I needed to point that out. That was the only "different thing" he had happen to him (this treatment) before getting the infection. I am only rating it so high because my other 2 cats were fine.
