We recently rescued a kitten that had been abandoned on the lawn of our apartment complex. Poor thing was maybe about 5 months old, too skinny, exhausted, and covered in fleas (though totally friendly & cuddly -- sometimes I really hate humans). None of our local pet stores had flea treatments for kittens; thankfully, Chewy DID, and even more thankfully, it got here fast enough that Ni'mete only had to suffer two days of baths in the interim. Apex worked like a charm. Happy non-itchy kitten and happy bug-phobic human who finally allowed the kid to cuddle.

Doesn't last a month

This works for a short time. Our one cat that is outside the most kept getting ticks.

Did not work on my 2 cats

When applying the tubes did not seem like they contained anything. Within a day both cats were scratching like mad. Now I have to leave them like this for another

When applying the tubes did not seem like they contained anything. Within a day both cats were scratching like mad. Now I have to leave them like this for another month before it is safe to treat them with something different. Very, very unhappy.

Works

It got rid of the fleas however one my of girls developed sores. Could be an allergic reaction or maybe too strong. My other cat was fine.

Not much. Six days after treating a very minor issue (fleas brought in by visiting human), all three are still scratching and chewing, though less. I actually had one one me! We’ve next had them in several years- our cats don’t go out, nor have they been boarded; we’ve cleaned, vacuumed daily, etc and still have I do wish I’d spent more and used Frontline; we just couldn’t afford it

Did Not Work At ALL

I put on 5 kittens and all of them are covered in fleas. Waited a few days, waited a week. Teribble waste of money. Do not buy!

It seems to be okay for the price.. I was using another off brand flea and tick and my cat was still itchy and fleas still alive and ticks. This stuff seems to be better. Trying to save a little by getting off brands for my two cats since one is a barn cat and other inside and out, already have two dogs that get Frontline but geez even the off brands are getting expensive.

Didn't work for my cats

I have eight cats, all drop offs or walk-ons at my house, and I was looking for a less expensive flea/tick treatment. This did not work for us.
