Any recommendations for cheapest options for buying Frontline (flea ctrl for dogs)

[Sue Ellen]

I find [broken link removed] (flea control for dog, as recommended by vet) to be quite expensive and just wondering if anyone has found a cheap place to purchase it rather than the vets?

He's in the 20-40 Kg. weight range.

Found this website, they appear to only sell on-line to vets though. What are you currently paying for Frontline? I have two cats and our local vet says that as they don't live permenantly outside, they only really need de-fleaing during late spring and summer (summer, huh, what summer!)

The spray is very good, should get the dog done twice with it - maybe it would be a more cost effective option for you. Just had a look at other products on that website - they do flea collars and tablets for dogs too - might be worth a look.

How much are you paying? We pay about €8.50 per dose for the same size dog. With shipping costs, a 3-dose frontline to Ireland comes to STG 23.50, so it is not worth our while to order from there! (At least not for a single product).

If you ordered one pack of 'Bob Martins spot-on' (instead of Frontline) @ £6.50 for 3 doses, including postage would come to £10.60 - roughly €16.00. Would work out cheaper - especially if you bought 4 packs at a time, to cover you for the whole year.

A few months since I bought the 3 pack but think it was somewhere between €30-€35.

I asked the vet about flea collars but he did not rate them at all.

I used some Bob Martin's worming tablets a while ago but the vet said they did not contain one particular ingredient so they were not strong enough.

Frontline is the best IMO. I would not give my three dogs anything else.It's worth the extra few bob....

We find frontline the best but it is expensive.

No, just get it from the vet as I can verify its authenticity! However, 16,000 speaks for itself, so I guess you pays your money.....
