Has always worked great for us. Much cheaper than the vets office. Will purchase again.
We've had decent luck with this product. I don't think the cat likes it, but we have not had fleas in the house since we started using it. I haven't noticed any allergic reactions to it from the cat either.
I have used Advantage in the past on my cats and it has always worked effectively. This time, it did absolutely nothing to rid the problem. This product was a total waste of money and time.
The second biggest downside is that my cats uniformly do not like it when it is applied, but seem to quickly get over it. [And if you have a severe infestation, you may need to do additional treating of your house--I am a big fan of using a sprinkling of diatomaceous earth, which seems to be a big secret despite being inexpensive and nontoxic]. If you are a first time user, be aware that it may take a while to interrupt the multiple life cycles of the fleas that are around your yard, house and animal/s. I've used Advantage for a number of years for both cats and dogs, and find it works better than anything else for flea control. I have found that with both cats and dogs it is possible to sometimes go up to several months between applications, which is good as I prefer to use any toxic chemical on them as little as possible, so you may want to try going more than a month between applications and see what happens. The biggest downside of Advantage is the price, and Amazon seems to offer the best price around (especially if they have a sale). I've also had good luck with purchasing the large cat (over 9 lbs) product and splitting it between two small cats.
I tried Frontline for 3 months, and was disappointed in the performance (reduced, but never eliminated fleas from our indoor cat). Advantage, on the other hand, completely eliminated any trace of fleas.
