Does it kill the hole cycle of fleas ? Eggs too !

It makes the fleas sterile so the eggs that are laid have no larva. The fleas don't die right away. My cats have to go through 2 cycles Advantage before they stop scratching. But eventually, they do stop scratching and they appear to be more comfortable.

We have tried several products for the cat and this kills adult and newborn fleas. I treat the ground outside and then the animals and the combination works.

I would call The company on that. Ill say if you have fleas in your house on the carpet you should dust or with a layer of salt and leave it for like 2 days it will naturally dry them out and it will vaccum up later. I would do this while you treat the cat since that tends to be how they stay in the house. I'm not a fan of over doing chemicals.

I know it kills aphids. It will not kill stink bugs directly.. But will kill the eggs.... So they can't repopulate... Try..it can't hurt.. Spray every week for a while where u see them. Also look up Howard Garrett Dirt Doctor. Won't hurt ur pets or children either. I Googled to get more info..

That stuff did not work well for me It only killed the adult flea and did not touch the eggs. Had to spray every day.

i have seen dead flea lavae (very small black worm appearance) within 24 hours on my white bed cover. my cats are 10 years old and twice i encountered a flea problem that was not resolved with the solution, i than had the vet give them a shot that is immediate followed by topical solution and both times this has kept them clear of fleas except when we go through a cold spell and it warms up a hatch outside and they can come in through the screens.

It prevents the fleas from being able to lay eggs by using a chemical that's a hormone disruptor. I usually spray it on the rugs, vacuum a day later. I don't ever see any residue, but I can feel it wet on my feet for a short while afterwards. You have to spray again about a week later to kill and disrupt those fleas that have just hatched from the eggs. I don't think there's anything on the market that will actually kill eggs before they hatch. But after 2 or 3 sprays, you're done. Unless your pet keeps bringing in more fleas from outside. Then you have to treat the animal too, which is always a good idea. Hope this helps. It prevents the fleas from being able to lay eggs by using a chemical that's a hormone disruptor.

Based on my personal experience and feedback from my readers, using borax for flea control really works. The powdered form has absolutely no smell and doesn't get absorbed by the skin when touched. It kills fleas by acting as an extreme dehydrate and by making tiny cuts in their exoskeleton which results in their eventual death. It can even be used to prevent small larvae that hatch but unfortunately will not help you get rid of flea eggs. (This I got from the web. Not my comment).

Hi, no I don't think it kills ticks its just for fleas/Lice. I'm not sure if you can get one that kills fleas and ticks you may have to get two different ones , I hope this helps

I think it has some effect but will not totally get rid of fleas. I find it helps to take daily and give him a bath every week. It has a lot of good vitamins and stuff in it and also Brewer's yeast (which is what repels the fleas.) At least, it is not poison.

I don't use this product for fleas but I do use it for rat mites, and it works, so I would assume that it works on fleas also. I know that it must be sprayed on them directly and it causes them to molt early and not lay eggs. They say it is not toxic and not harmful to people and pets. I have never had a problem with it.hope that helps...

It does not kill adult fleas and those in the pupae stage. It does kill the eggs and larvae. It can take up to 6 weeks to rid the environment of fleas.

Unfortunately it does not. I agree with dots its geared specifically for fleas.

It lists bed bugs as one of the bugs that it will kill, we have used this product for years and it essentially kills any crawling, flying insect, including fleas. We use this in our house, it is safe once it has dried!

Yes, it does both. I started using it when my dogs had a mild case of fleas, and it killed them. It's important to remember that for flea infestations, often their eggs are in the carpets too, so you'll have to continue using Frontline for a few months before the infestation is completely gone.

This one is for medicinal purposes mainly. You may want to visit your local hardware store for flea killer.

You will need to research thus thoroughly yourself-- I recommend calling Fleabusters-- but as a customer who did a little research, I can say that the boric acid probably does not kill fleas at all life stages. To effectively rid fleas, they have to be killed at all life stages, including egg and pupa. Otherwise, the fleas WILL return. Fleabusters does kill them at all stages. Also, Fleabusters is nontoxic to humans; whereas I think boric acid can be toxic. Again, I'm just a fellow customer, so you'd want to research these issues.

The medicine only kills the fleas and eggs on the animal. You still need to spray flea killer on furniture and wherever the pet sleeps, wash bed linens, and vacuum frequently until the fleas are eradicated.

I am not sure, sorry but it really doesn't help at all with reinfestation of fleas, etc. I hated to use chemicals but had to in the end as fleas were making my dog ill. The cat was infesting the dog over and over, so now they are both on Advantage/Advantix products..natural is better in our minds but those darn larvae and eggs don't go away!
