Pets Republic FRONTEC Flea & Tick Spray | 125ml

Pets Republic FRONTEC Flea & Tick Spray: Comprehensive Parasite Control for Dogs & Cats

Key Active Ingredients & Their Actions:

• Fipronil:
  • Action: A broad-spectrum insecticide and acaricide belonging to the phenylpyrazole chemical family. Fipronil works by disrupting the central nervous system of insects and ticks, leading to hyperexcitation and death. It spreads across the skin via the natural oils and follicles.
  • Benefit: Rapidly kills adult fleas and ticks. It’s known for its efficacy against severe existing infestations.
• S-Methoprene:
  • Action: An Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). S-Methoprene does not kill adult parasites but disrupts the life cycle of fleas and ticks by preventing the development of eggs and larvae into mature adults. This breaks the parasite’s life cycle.
  • Benefit: Targets the immature stages of parasites, effectively preventing re-infestations and helping to clear the environment of developing fleas and ticks.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Dual-Action Formula: Kills adult fleas and ticks (Fipronil) and prevents the development of flea eggs and larvae (S-Methoprene), offering complete life cycle control.
• Broad-Spectrum Protection: Effective against fleas, ticks (including all life stages), mosquitoes, and mites. Some sources even mention chewing lice.
• Fast-Acting: Kills fleas within 24 hours and ticks within 48 hours of application.
• Long-Lasting Efficacy: Provides residual protection for at least 30 days (up to 4 weeks or more), helping to prevent re-infestations.
• Waterproof: Remains effective even after bathing or swimming (though it’s generally recommended to avoid bathing for 24-48 hours after application for optimal absorption).
• Convenient Spray Application: Easy-to-use spray bottle allows for thorough and precise coverage of the pet’s coat.
• Safe for Dogs & Cats: Explicitly marketed as safe for both canine and feline companions, including puppies and kittens from 2 days of age, and also suitable for senior animals. This is a significant advantage, especially the safety for very young kittens and puppies.
• Helps Control Sarcoptic Mange: Some descriptions indicate it helps control Sarcoptes mites, which cause sarcoptic mange.

Indications:

• Treatment and control of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides spp.) on dogs and cats.
• Treatment and control of tick infestations (including Ixodes ricinus, Dermacentor reticulatus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, and deer ticks) on dogs and cats.
• Control of chewing lice on dogs and cats.
• Prevention of re-infestation by breaking the parasite life cycle.
• An aid in the control of sarcoptic mange (confirm with veterinarian).

Dosage & Administration:

• Route: Topical spray application onto the animal’s coat.
• Preparation: Wear household latex gloves during application. Ensure your pet’s coat is dry.
• Application:
  1. Shake the bottle well before use.
  2. Hold the bottle upright, approximately 10-20 cm (4-8 inches) from the animal.
  3. Spray the entire body of the animal. Apply against the direction of hair growth, ruffling the coat (especially in long-haired animals) to ensure the product penetrates down to the skin.
  4. Ensure the entire coat is damp to thoroughly wet. A general guideline is 3-6 ml of spray per kg of body weight (or 2-4 pump activations per kg, depending on sprayer output). For the head and eye area, spray onto a gloved hand and gently rub into the pet’s hair, avoiding direct spray into eyes or mouth.
  5. Allow the treated area to air dry completely. Do not towel dry immediately after application.
  6. Keep treated animals away from open flames or other heat sources until the fur is dry.
• Frequency: Apply once every 30 days (monthly) for continuous protection and to control Flea Allergy Dermatitis.

Contraindications & Warnings:

• For External Use Only.
• Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse immediately and thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
• Wear gloves during application. Wash hands thoroughly after handling the product.
• Use in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets. Store away from food and feedstuffs.
• Do not use on sick, debilitated, or very weak animals.
• Do not apply to open wounds or severely irritated skin.
• Monitor your pet after application for any signs of adverse reactions such as skin irritation (redness, itching), trembling, excessive salivation, vomiting, or diarrhea. If severe or persistent adverse reactions occur, bathe the pet immediately with mild soap and water and contact your veterinarian.
• While generally safe for very young pets, always consult your veterinarian for specific advice, especially for puppies/kittens under 8 weeks or pets with pre-existing health conditions.
