Of all the many brands that are available to help prevent or eliminate fleas and ticks on dogs, frontline is one of the best well known. I took it upon myself to do some extremely thorough research in to the field of just how safe it is to use on our pets and came up with some very interesting results.

Although the actual chemicals used only number two in frontline dog flea treatments I was surprised after I completed my research. It seems that there is little to no evidence of dogs reacting very badly when treated with this application. Nearly all dogs have absolutely no reaction while a few may have a little rash for a day or so around the area where they are treated. This is very good news indeed. It works so well that it would have been a real shame if there were reports of it being dangerous to our pets.

Researching just what is involved and how frontline flea medication works I was very happy with the results. What we, as owners of pets, need to be careful of is ensuring we treat this chemical mix with care. Although no results could be found that it can significantly harm our animals it must be kept stored safely and away from children. The components in it can be dangerous if ingested or if splashed in to the eyes. If this does happen then you need to seek medical help immediately. The same goes for our dogs. If you accidentally get it in your pets eyes then consult with a vet straight away.

Apart from these few simple precautions we can rest assured that it is quite safe to apply to our pets fur. Always follow the directions for applying very closely. Make sure you part the fur right down to the skin and apply directly on to the skin. Also, ensure you apply it where your dog cannot get to it to lick it. This would not be good. You also need to ensure that your animal does not get wet for at least a day so that it has time to work effectively.

These few simple precautions will mean that frontline dog flea treatment can be used safely and effectively to prevent or eliminate any ticks and fleas that are present or may soon infest your beloved pet. Act responsibly with any chemical treatment and if you have any doubts or concerns never be afraid to consult with your vet. It is what they are there for.
