Full details

FAQs

Can Frontline TRI-ACT be used on puppies?

Yes, it can be used on puppies from 8 weeks of age and weighing at least 2kg.

How often should I apply Frontline TRI-ACT?

Apply one pipette every month for continuous protection against fleas and ticks. For mosquitoes, sandflies, and biting flies, protection duration varies. Consult your veterinarian for a tailored parasite prevention schedule.

Can I use Frontline TRI-ACT on my cat?

No, Frontline TRI-ACT is strictly for use on dogs. It contains permethrin, which is highly toxic to cats and can be fatal.

What should I do if my dog swims or gets wet after application?

The product's effectiveness may be reduced if the dog is bathed or swims within 48 hours of application. However, it generally remains effective. For optimal results, avoid bathing for 48 hours post-application.

How long does Frontline TRI-ACT last?

It provides insecticidal and acaricidal (tick-killing) efficacy for 1 month for fleas and ticks. Insecticidal efficacy against mosquitoes and sandflies lasts for 3 weeks, and against biting flies for 5 weeks. Repellent effects vary similarly.

What parasites does Frontline TRI-ACT protect against?

It protects against fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, sandflies, and biting flies.

Can Frontline TRI-ACT be used on pregnant or lactating dogs?

Consult your veterinarian before using Frontline TRI-ACT on pregnant or lactating dogs, as specific safety data may vary.

Troubleshooting

Dog licks the application site

Apply the pipette to a spot the dog cannot reach, such as the back of the neck or between the shoulder blades. If licking occurs and signs of intoxication appear, consult a veterinarian immediately.

Parasites still present after application

Ensure the product was applied correctly to the skin, not the fur. Allow the full 24-48 hours for the product to spread over the skin. Re-application should only occur if recommended by a veterinarian, as over-application can be harmful.

Skin irritation at the application site

Mild, temporary irritation may occur. If severe redness, itching, or swelling develops, wash the dog with mild soap and water and contact your veterinarian.

Dog becomes unwell after application

In rare cases, neurological signs may occur. If your dog shows unusual lethargy, vomiting, tremors, or other concerning symptoms, contact your veterinarian immediately and inform them that the dog has been treated with Frontline TRI-ACT.
