Amazon Basics Preventative Flea and Tick Topical Treatment for Cats (Over 1.5 lbs), Fast Acting and Long Lasting, 6 Count, Packaging May Vary

THIS PRODUCT UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT. Within minutes the fleas were dying and YES they are going to twitch,and flick and no they won’t like it,but that is the medication working and within a day we are down 80%. DEAD FLEAS. Now I see alot of people complaining “it don’t work & chemical burns” that is because you are either not applying it correctly,using the whole contents,or applying it directly to open wounds. YOU CANNOT APPLY ANY CHEMICAL TO ALREADY DAMAGED SKIN! If the area that is needing to be treated “shoulder blades” are affected,it is better to use at the nap of the neck. I always use at the nap of the neck because they can’t lick easily & it gets distributed evenly by your cat’s natural grooming. Drys within hours and then you can pet your cat as usual. So if used CORRECTLY and use the FULL AMOUNT per vial,you should have success. Treat each cat in your home as well. Do not vacuum-do not pick off fleas-do nothing until you see the fleas dead dead as all the fleas need to get iarounf the meds. If you vacuum or flick them off they will eventually get back to your cat and will not get the biggest dose of the treatment. Do not bathe your cat until you see No sign of fleas. And DO NOT OVER DOSE. One application is plenty enough. Order two boxes and write the date one month ahead to know when to give the next dose. 100% WORTH IT. My girls are feeling much better and more comfortable and I have noticed less scratching. Again your cat will go NUTS scratching and twitching because the fleas are DYING,they will be fine…..let them do what they do,it will calm down after a few hours. ANNDDD we have a major infestation from the humid summer we are having,so for me to come to write this review says alot. GET YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER….GET THIS ASAP.

I ordered this product before I read the reviews, I was nervous that I had bought a product that wasn’t going to work, thankfully it worked as intended. I have several cats of different sizes, I used the appropriate product for appropriate size, all are flea free now. I will definitely be buying this product again. Don’t go by just reviews, take a chance, this product worked for my kitties and this was starting to look like a difficult year with a lot of fleas but now it’s not. UPDATE - After two weeks the product has completely failed. I’m very disappointed and have to resort to spending more money which living on a fixed income, I don’t have, to buy a more expensive product to help my furbabies and myself because the fleas have come back for vengeance. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT

One of our cats had a flea infestation and the most common product to try first is Front Line Plus. I saw Amazon Basics had a comparable product that was supposed to be the same product for a more reasonable price. The cat was having a severe allergic reaction to the fleas and was losing hair and had open sores on her back. She was pretty miserable. I ordered the product based on the apparent good rating and number of reviews without looking closely at the actual reviews. that was a mistake. I got the product and applied it as directed. I waited for 24 hours and kept an eye on the flea activity on her bare spot. After 24 hours, there was no effect on the fleas at all, and they just kept getting worse. I thought maybe it was just taking more time to start working. I kept monitoring the flea activity, and 48 hours, then 72 hours, then a full week passed with no change at all. I thought I had maybe not applied enough directly to her skin, or there was an issue with the dose I used, so I actually re-treated her early after about a week, and was very careful to get it all on her skin while applying it while she was sleeping. Another week passed and the fleas just got worse. We have two other cats in the household and they started having fleas show up on them, and all three cats are indoor cats that have had no flea issues in their lifetime (10 years+). I treated the other two cats with the same product, was very careful to get it all on their skin, and the results were the same after a week. The fleas just increased in number and there was not a single dead flea to be found when combing. I ended up having to get a different topical treatment and Capstar pills to treat the adult fleas. The Capstar worked like a charm and fleas were dropping off and dying after 30 minutes to an hour. I'm not sure if the company that makes this product for Amazon is having issues with quality control, dosing, or what, but I'll never try their brand flea products again. Buyer beware.

This is the second time I purchased and apply it to our kitties. Neither time it work and the cats continued to have fleas, whether the same day or several days later. Bad to the point that instead of one month intervals we did it two weeks later. This product, although less expensive, is absolutely worthless.

Love this product for my cats. I have it on subscription because it makes it cheaper & I never have to remember to purchase more. It’s super easy to use; you just cut the tip and apply on the top of their neck between their back and head. It works great as (knock on wood) I’ve never seen ticks or fleas on my cats. I have not noticed any reactions/side effects & it dries fairly quickly after applied.

Quick and to the point… I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I know fleas are not a quick fix and concern in Florida. Firstly, I was happy to find this product generic have generic frontline as well as generic advantage for cats. Priced inexpensive in comparison to brand name, however after several months of staying on this product, confirming with order history, I am DISAPPOINTED and PISSED!! Disappointed i have been paying for a product that doesn’t work, still have fleas, and the itching!! PISSED this is made IN CHINA.

Repels fleas & ticks very well. Been using this product almost a year now & NEVER had any side effects with my cats.

If you’ve ever watched your cat turn into a tiny, itchy tornado, you know how desperate you get for something that actually works—this kind of flea medicine is a lifesaver. It works fast. Within a day or so, I noticed way less scratching, less biting at their fur, and overall just a much happier, more relaxed cat. Treatments like this don’t just target adult fleas—they also go after eggs and larvae, which helps stop the cycle instead of just temporarily fixing the problem. Application is super simple—just part the fur at the back of the neck and apply. No wrestling with pills or trying to trick your cat into eating something suspicious. It’s quick, easy, and done in seconds. Another big plus is how long it lasts. One application typically provides about a month of protection, so you’re not constantly worrying about fleas making a comeback. Overall, this is one of those essentials every cat owner should have on hand. It’s effective, easy to use, and makes a noticeable difference almost immediately—for both you and your cat. 🐱
