Frontline Plus Flea and Tick Treatment for Small Dogs, 3 Doses, 5–22 lb

FRONTLINE Plus is a monthly flea and tick spot treatment for small dogs weighing 5–22 lb (2.27–9.98 kg), with three doses per pack and fipronil plus (S)-methoprene to target fleas through multiple life stages.

• Three monthly doses for dogs in the 5–22 lb weight range — a pack for three treatment cycles.
• Fipronil and (S)-methoprene — target adult fleas, flea eggs and flea larvae.
• Kills fleas, ticks and chewing lice, and aids in controlling sarcoptic mange infestations — addresses several listed parasites with one topical treatment.
• One dose protects for 30 days and is waterproof 24 hours after application — supports a monthly routine.
• For puppies from 8 weeks old and dogs weighing at least 5 lb — provides a defined age and weight range for use.

Fleas can continue their life cycle by leaving eggs and larvae behind, while ticks and chewing lice are other pests dog owners may need to control. FRONTLINE Plus is made to interrupt flea development as well as kill existing adult fleas. Apply the treatment to a single point; its distribution through the dog’s skin oils is designed to cover the body. The three-dose pack suits owners planning monthly flea and tick treatment for a small dog.

What pests does FRONTLINE Plus for small dogs target?

FRONTLINE Plus kills adult fleas, flea eggs, flea larvae, ticks and chewing lice, and aids in controlling sarcoptic mange infestations. Fipronil and (S)-methoprene work together to target existing adult fleas and the egg and larval stages, helping break the flea life cycle. The treatment also kills ticks that can transmit Lyme disease; this is a tick-killing claim, not a claim to prevent or treat Lyme disease.

• Targets multiple stages of the flea life cycle, not adult fleas alone.
• Helps stop existing flea infestations and prevent new infestations from becoming established.
• Includes tick control for ticks that can transmit Lyme disease.

How does the spot treatment spread and how long does it last?

Apply each dose at a single point on your dog; the treatment spreads over the body and collects in the sebaceous glands. These glands act as a reservoir that continually replenishes treatment onto the skin. One monthly dose provides 30 days of flea and tick protection, and the treatment is waterproof 24 hours after application.

• The skin’s sebaceous glands serve as a reservoir for ongoing replenishment.
• Waterproof protection applies 24 hours after the treatment is applied.
• Use one dose each month as part of the stated flea and tick control routine.

Which dogs is this three-dose pack made for?

This FRONTLINE Plus pack is for dogs weighing 5–22 lb and can be used on puppies from 8 weeks old that weigh at least 5 lb.

• Minimum age: 8 weeks; minimum weight: 5 lb.
• Each pack contains three monthly doses.
