You read that right. When I used this product on my 6 year old cat for the first time, following all of the instructions, the product chemically burned my cats fur off and left him with a bald spot and skin irritation. I couldn’t believe this has so many good ratings when it can do that!

While the Capstar tablets for quick flea eradication is excellent, these topical treatments dropped the ball. Pretty much completely ineffective. I don’t know if it’s the Fipronil that doesn’t work or their formulation, but I am still battling fleas.
