Works as it should
I use this product for my cat whenever he gets an infestation from time to time. It works as it should. I find it kills fleas who feed almost instantly if not within 30 minutes at least. It is important to note for others who find it doesn't work for them that fleas live at 95% within the environment, this means you will have eggs, larvae and pupae in your pet's environment which means regardless of using this product, a re-infestation is likely. Fleas can also be passed form pet to pet and even to humans (though they do not feed from us.) So y

It is important to treat all pets as well. It is not meant to provide lasting support against fleas. Its meant for use in cases where you need instant relief. You need to combine this product with other flea fighting methods. Use monthly spot ons as you should for lasting support. Cleaning for starters is a big thing you must do otherwise using this product will be pointless. If you don't remove the fleas from the environment, they will eventually re-infest your pet and still continue to be an issue. Use knock-down as recommended, clean the environment thoroughly, make use of flea shampoos weekly (preferably not at the same time as knockdown as you want to be cautious especially with cats whom are sensitive metabolisms with things. one product at a time allows you to watch for reactions and take action accordingly without questioning if it was this or that product.)
Cats scratching again a week later
(This is for the 'Flea Knockdown' product that Purina sell in supermarkets for cats, kittens and puppies.)
I have five cats so flea control is a very expensive proposition, and one is feral and won't let me go near her to administer drops. Saw these tablets on special at Coles so gave to them a week ago. The grooming frenzy began as the fleas started to die and go berserk. (However, I noticed not as many dead fleas as when I used Comfortis last month - and that was a half dose.) Less than one week later they are all scratching again. One little girl has at least five fleas walking all over her face as I write this.

Hi Shazam, thank you for your feedback, we are sorry to hear of your experience with our TOTALCARE Flea Knockdown. This product is an adulticide and will only kill adult fleas on your cats, and will n

It is important to remember when treating fleas that 95% live in the environment and 5% of the flea population is what you see on your pets. This product is designed to be a quick acting and short acting product to give your pet immediate relief from the fleas on them at the time of application, to be used alongside an environmental treatment to control the population. This product will begin working in 30 minutes and will last 24-48 hours after giving the tablet, unlike the month long treatment you have mentioned you have used in the past.
