TevraPet FirstAct Plus Flea and Tick Prevention for Cats Over 1.5lbs, 6 Monthly Doses, Topical Drops

Initially I was very skeptical after buying this flea treatment because of the several cases of cats missing fur and developing scabs... I was really nervous after putting this on my indoor/outdoor cat. The first image is about 6 hours after one application. Second photo is about 12 hours. Almost completely dry and no signs or symptoms of irritation or allergic reaction. Don't mind the redness on my kitty's ears she has been treated for that previously it is unrelated to the flea treatment. Also, I was only using this medication for prevention. She goes outside an hour a day, but my vet recommended preventative measures. Anyway, I would recommend this product because I have a good experience. I would say if your cat is particularly sensitive or has had skin issues or worries in the past to look for something more effective and not so cheap. All in all I think I will use it again for next month.

I was impressed with this brand of cat tick and flea topical. It pretty much worked the entire 4 weeks, not 3 like some others I had tried. This product is comparable to Frontline Plus, and I must agree it is.The only thing I did not care for was the applicator. Cats do not sit still when applying this because they are trying to either get away or check out what you are putting on them. The applicator the topical comes in has sharp edges, so be careful when applying that you do not scrape your cat's skin. A cat has thinner skin than dogs do, it punctures and tears easily. For that reason I do not like their applicator. Whoever the quality control person is with this company must not have cats. They should put it in squeeze bottles that have a dull point on the end, for wriggling cats. Maybe they will read my review and think about what they are using compared to the companies that do use the dull pointed tubes. It just makes sense..My cats did not get ill or have any kind of reaction to this particular brand. I would recommend it 100%, but instead it gets 85% recommendation, because of sharp edges.

Works effectively for good feline health. Resistance ticks and fleas. Good longevity. Will buy again. I’m

I always see the small percentage of customers who seem like they are on another planet from the rest of the reviewer's on different products. Well I don't know what planet I am on but my cats have NEVER had the amount of flea's on them as they do after using this product. I could be facetious and say I would swear it attracted them, I don't know. What I do know is when I put it on them they had no flea's because of the product I normally use. Now they are all miserable and I can't keep them combed enough until it's safe to put their normal drops on them. I also have two of my cats that have irritation on their necks I can't honestly say for sure it's these drops but I can say they have not had the problem before. I only tried these because of the ingredients that I read help if your cats have mites and I have one cat that is my red headed stepchild that always has some kind of rough areas on her skin under her fur. I am apologizing to my cats for changing their drops for which now they are licking chewing hot messes. Mommy's sorry....

I have been using this on my cats for years. This works wonders! I've struggled so much in the past, trying to save a little money, because let's be honest, it gets really expensive. I've found a ton of cheaper or even similar priced flea treatments and they were all garbage 🗑. This does actually work for my kitties and they are so much happier, as is my wallet. Its a win win 🏆! It does last the full 4 weeks. As a matter of fact it's about time to renew. I will be adding to my subscribe and save if I can!

I applied this to my two young cats yesterday and haven't been able to find anymore fleas on them so far (fingers crossed). They didn't have the worst infestation I've seen, but it was definitely starting to get bad. One has very dense fur that the bugs just loved (I don't blame them, it's super soft). Bathing them didn't do much, combing was a temporary fix (and tricky on the one with dense fur), and the last product I used was ineffective and had a horrible odor that made my cats very anxious and irritable. It was hard for me to be around the smell too, so I can't imagine how awful it was for them. I was really happy that there was basically no odor to this product. The application tube isn't the best--you have to snip the end off of each tube and it's a bit awkward with the packaging around it. I have a routine for my cats that I also do for shots that worked for this as well. I set them on the counter and give them their favorite food to enjoy while I put the treatment on. I had to hold them each briefly with one arm due to the initial shock of feeling something on them, but both got over it very quickly. No acting erratic or scared afterwards. They tried to get at it for a few minutes, so just be mindful of where you put it. Happy so far and I'm hopeful that we'll be done with fleas in a few months!UPDATE:I've been following the pamphlet about dealing with infestation and applying once a week for 4 weeks. Today will be the final application before i switch to monthly maintenance either with this product or another. The fleas seemed to disappear for a few days after the initial dose and then I noticed a lot more--probably all the eggs hatching. For the most part I vacuum and comb every day with a few exceptions when I work late. After the 3rd application I began seeing dead fleas on their fur and fleas jumping off of them and acting strangley, which means the product was working. Within a few days I found some time to comb the cats for several hours and I pulled off at least 200 fleas. I should've taken a picture. This was extremely disappointing considering all my efforts as well as putting this product on them. The majority weren't even small ones, they were adults. I've made a conscious effort to be even more proactive and go into "crazy cleaning mode" to get rid of this issue. Today while combing I noticed fewer fleas, majority small, and a good portion that I pulled off were already dead.I'm really on the fence about the effectiveness of this product. I've seen it work, and it might be fine for maintenance once an infestation is taken care of, but I think a bad case of fleas will always require a lot of dirty work on behalf of the pet owner. I don't think that means the product is necessarily bad, but I don't think you'd be able to get away with using this as a cure all and not get your hands dirty. My cats still have not had any adverse reactions. I've read a few reviews about cats getting sick or dying, and we need to remember that this is still a poison. You can't feed it to your pets or let them lick it off. Will update after the final dose to see if this product can help clear an infestation within a month. That would be really impressive!
