Important Information
Fleas rise to the top of your cat's coat as they die, so consider it a triumph if you start seeing more fleas at first, after treating your pet.
Onguard Plus works to eliminate fleas in all life stages. If you’re still seeing fleas after application, it may be because your cat has picked up new fleas from the environment, which may include other pets, surfaces and outdoor areas. Don’t worry, Onguard Plus starts working immediately on any new fleas that get on your cat, eliminating them within 24 hours from contact. It may take up to 30 days to break the entire flea life cycle. Additionally, you should also treat sources of new fleas (i.e., carpet, yard, etc.) to ensure complete flea control.

Preventing Fleas at Every Turn

Flea finds a home
Once on your cat, it bites to feed within just 2 hours.
Eggs are laid
In 2 days, an adult flea will lay eggs.
Eggs hatch into larvae
Eggs fall off your pet, scatter around the home, and then hatch.
Larvae turn into pupae
Pupae can wait for up to a year before emerging as adult fleas.
2 Powerful Active Ingredients
Onguard Plus uses two active ingredients that are commonly used to protect cats from fleas and ticks. Fipronil and (S)-methoprene work together to stop an infestation in its tracks and prevent future ones.

Together the two create a highly effective flea and tick preventative treatment.

I was so hopeful
By Mona on Jun 6, 2021
I have a multi cat household, they are strictly indoor. We moved earlier this year, and our current home had been relatively flea free. Now that summer is here, preventative treatment is imperative. I applied the product a week ago to everyone, and it almost seems like it’s attracting fleas, not repelling. I’ve seen more scratching, not less, and found live fleas on more one yesterday, whereas I had not seen any since we moved. I have tried numerous brands of spot treatments, all duds. Why is it so difficult to find a quality preventative product that’s cost effective and it actually works?

This does not work
By 2manyCat on Jun 14, 2021
This product does not work for us. One and a half weeks later I'm still seeing flea dirt on the cats as well as flea eggs on their pillows. They are still itchy. The kitten with flea allergies seemed better for a couple of days, but she is back to scratching again. :( disappointed in purchase

It works like it says
By Opal on Jun 1, 2021
I got this because I have a bunch of cats that come in and out of the house. They like hunting in grassy areas.... A week after application, I noticed that there were dead ticks where the cats had been laying. That tells me that this product works.

Don’t recommend
By Criadostar on May 28, 2021
I have 4 cats, 3 inside,1 outside, I chose this product hoping it would help to keep the fleas away and be affordable, I know there is no product that will 100% keep fleas away but this product did nothing and left red irritated spots on 2 of my cats.

Sorry, But Doesn't Work
By Turbo16 on Apr 30, 2021
I dislike giving bad reviews, however this product deserves one. I have 5 cats, one is strictly an outdoor girl, her biological brother is both indoor and outdoor, so, it is him that brings the fleas inside and they get on my 3 strictly indoor cats. I used this Onguard Plus on my 3 indoor and the one who goes outdoors. It didn't work on any of them. I don't recommend it.

Less itching.
By TXCat on May 20, 2021
I have feral barn cats that are semi tame. I noticed them scratching each morning when I was pouring their food. After administering Onguard Plus they stopped itching for a few weeks and I've only seen them scratch once since the treatment.

Onguard treatment for fleas
By Fleatreament on Jun 18, 2021
I liked it the first time I used it, but after that it didn't work so well! So I switched to the bundle, and that didn't do as well as hoped! So, next time I am going to get Advantage 2

Flea problem
By pepper on Apr 30, 2021
stray cat been feeding for several years. Bad flea infestation last year & my vet allowed to buy one. It was like a miracle. Flea season rolled around again and my stray was starting to suffer and Chewy allowed me to buy flea medication at a good rate and the cat seems to be flea free and is finally eating something . Can't thank you enough!!! My vet would not let me purchase an application.

Gaaaaaarbage
By Trice on Jun 15, 2021
We put this on our indoor cat a week ago and we still have all sized fleas everywhere. I'm really disappointed that I bought the 6 pack because it clearly doesn't work.
