NEXTSTAR Flea and Tick Prevention for Cats, Repellent and Control, Fast Acting Waterproof Topical Drops, Flea Prevention for Cats Over 3.5 lbs, 6 Monthly Doses

This is exactly what I needed for my cat. The topical application is easy to use and the product is waterproof, which is a big plus. I appreciate that no prescription is required. It works fast and lasts for 30 days, which keeps my cat protected without hassle. Overall, a reliable choice for flea and tick control.

The item is great but unfortunately it was shipped to the wrong address. This was my fault so I won't be able to purchase this product for a while.

Unfortunately this didn't work for us. The two cats it was used on are indoor only cats, but our dogs go in and out regularly for walks or restroom breaks. The landlord here doesn't perform lawn pest treatment either, so corrective action is needed when preventative action isn't occurring.One of my cats (10yr old diluted calico) lost a lot of fur around the base of her tail after using this - this hair loss occurred around day 3 and continued for a week. My 2 yr old cat was vomiting a lot on day 2 after the application. Neither cat had a reaction immediately after application and they didnt consume any of it to my knowledge, but this product requires you to put it both on the neck and the back/spine. Cats are too flexible for this kind of application - even if they're too fat to reach either back to directly lick the meds, they still scratch the back of their neck and then lick their feet.The product takes 3-ish days to actually absorb for the most part- that's a long time to risk them ingesting it, plus exposure to owners if the cat is petted.No positive flea control ever happened, so quality gets the 1 star rating too. I spoke with a rep at the company to confirm the expiration date before using the product so I know it wasn't old or expired that lended to the ineffectiveness of the product. I won't buy again, that's for sure.

Was skeptical but this flea and tick prevention for my cat over 3.5 lbs has been impressive. The waterproof formula is a big plus, especially since my cat gets wet during baths. I like how easy it is to apply the topical and that protection begins in just 15 minutes. The 30-day protection period fits well with my schedule. Overall, it’s a trustworthy product that keeps pests at bay without the need for a vet prescription.

For some reason we have had a hard year with fleas and mosquitoes in our county this season, even with us treating our yard several times and keeping flea meds on our animals (8 indoor cats, 3 indoor dogs, husband works at a zoo we live in one we also have a bird) we have had no luck at keeping the fleas completely off.Knowing how well their other product works Capstar, I had high hopes for this product. After applying it a flea combed the cats regularly but I always found several alive fleas and my cats were still scratching, fleas must love black cats because they are the worst with them! After it was not working I gave all of them Capstar which works for 24hrs to kill all fleas (works great) I watch the fleas go away, only to watch them come back. I would have put more flea meds on them but it had only been two weeks since the last treatment and I have one cat you would think you were torturing her when you het near her with it; if I am putting it or any flea meds on another cat, her eyes start blinking and watering and she runs off.I do question the amount of meds in the dose since it doesn’t go by different weights I have a couple 20lb cats.With all of that said it just maybe the fleas in our area are just becoming immune to the products currently on the market, I remember when frontline no longer worked for us in 2003.

Could not believe how fast this worked , fleas started falling off . would purchase again. Price is a bit high but worth it.

I really like this flea solution it works in 15 minutes or less no bad odor and my cats do not run from me when it's time to reapply last for 30 days a little expensive for one tube but I'm happy with it

This is what our vet uses; our cats are 2 years old and weigh approximately 5 lbs, and it works great on them. The price on Amazon is better than the vet, it works well with flea control, doesn't smell and easy to apply.
