On Line Medicine Sites?


We are suffering fleas I think Misty must of brought them back with her from the Vets.

Do any of you use Online Medicine Sites to get items like Frontline etc... cheaper? a friend mentioned Vet UK Limited, I registered, but do not know if this is the best one.

This is the first time we have had fleas poor little babies.

Erin is correct the flea cycle lasts all year round due to our homes being warmer.

Cassie, being an outdoor cat, is treated 4 times a year ...

I get her flea treatment and worming tablets from here .... http://www.vetuk.co.uk/

Thank you all

I have just ordered from the same one as you Mags, so being they are outdoor cats apart from Jac, does this mean I need only do it 4 times also? x

Re: On Line Medicine Sites?


Once you have got it under control 4 times a year should be sufficient Sweet.

Unfortunately if one cat has brought the fleas into the house it is more than likely that the other cats have been infested too, so it is advisable that they be treated as well .... including the one who is an indoor cat. Also check their bedding etc as they would probably have laid their eggs there.
