My cat still has fleas after Frontline. Can I use Advantage II now?

Have a bad flea infestation. Used Frontline last week on 14lb cat. Combed dozens of fleas today. OK to also use Advantage II for large cats?

Hi and thanks for your question. Yes, advantage 2 large cat can be used but not after frontline was just applied last week. Frontline is indicated for a month, so I would wait another 3 weeks until administering the Advantage 2 large cat. You run the risk of overloading her system otherwise. I hope this helps and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
