**FRONTLINE Spot On for Dogs – Kills Fleas, Ticks & Biting Lice**

FRONTLINE Spot On is a fast-acting, vet-approved treatment containing fipronil, which kills fleas, ticks, and biting lice on your dog. Vets usually recommend monthly application if you are managing flea allergy dermatitis or an active infestation. Dosages are available for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds up to extra-large. Puppies can be treated from 8 weeks old, as long as they weigh at least 2kg.

Effective duration: around 2 months for fleas, up to 1 month for ticks

- Any new fleas landing on the dog are eliminated within 24 hours.
- Effectively controls biting/chewing lice infestations

**Dosage guides**

- 2–10kg: 0.67ml pipette
- 10–20kg: 1.34ml pipette
- 20–40kg: 2.68ml pipette
- 40–60kg: 4.02ml pipette
- Over 60kg: two 2.68ml pipettes combined

**Warnings**

- Bathing or shampooing up to 1 hour before application does not affect the product’s effectiveness
- Do not bathe your dog or let them swim for two days after application
- Weekly bathing with a gentle, soap-free shampoo won’t affect protection — avoid bathing more often than once a week, and skip skin-softening shampoos
- Outdoor dogs or those in wildlife areas are at higher risk of fleas and ticks
- The dose is calibrated to dog bodyweight, and using it on a cat risks overdosing.
