Anyone know any good Flea & Tick drops for my cat besides Frontline? Trying to find a cheaper alternative!

Has anyone ever had any problems with Purscriptions Plus Squeeze on Flea %26 Tick drops by Sentry? I put it on my cat and he broke out in a bad rash on the back of his neck, I had to bath him, and you know how cats hate water. Frontline seemed to work before but it is too expensive. Anyone know of other brands that work well that will not make him break out, and where can I get them?
Answers:
I use Revolution. I get it at my Vet's. It cost's $10.00 an application and if you buy three, you get one free. I like it because it covers fleas, ticks, ear mites and different worms including heartworms.
Unfortunately, pets are expensive...
Try advantage for cats. We have 5 cats and use it on all of them. I dunno if it's cheaper tho, but don't try hartz, thatll kill ur cat. U can go to petshed.com and they'll ship it to u. or u could go to ur vets and they'll probably have there. Good luck w/ ur search!!
There is a pill you can get for your cat, i can't remember what its called but it kills the flea as soon as they bite your after you cat has had the pill, its cheeper than the liquid stuff.
You could try natural products such as lavender or adding a small amount of garlic to pet food. You can look up natural solutions on the web to get more information.
Advantage by bayer.
research on line prices.
There is another one which you put into their food.
My cats didn't like it.
Use FL or ADV. Buy online at best price you can find.
Coming from Australia or Canada is no problem on import.
Best price is always 6 month or 1 year.
Do your research online and learn about fleas.
You will not need to treat animals during winter when it's raining.
To treat a stubborn cat.
Warm a towel in the microwave. wrap the cat in the towel tightly then expose the back of the neck and treat him/her.
Then pet the animal severely and slowly release the animal
To run away and sulk.
After about three months they learn and stop fighting, usually.
Some never stop fighting so you must trap them in a small room. Where ever the cat box is or where you feed them.
Since fleas/when wet.canna swim.. fill tub to underbelly and added or spray vinegar straight on the coat and then shampoo with regular shampoo. since we're tresemme' fanatics we bathe our cats in the same... walah! no fleas/cheap..and add asprinkle of table pepper to ur cats wet food diet once a week.. pepper in the bloodlines deterrs fleas and mange from cats and dogs.. regular haus pepper.yeah once a week for the rest of theyre lives a sprinkle of pepper for the fleas N coats...and also the worms HATE pepper.
