Hello. What is the best fleas and lice treatment for cat on the market at the moment? I use Frontline Plus all the time but lately start to feel that it doesn't work like how it used to. I also saw a lot of negative reviews on Amazon saying the same thing. Please help.

Lice are not terribly common in cats. I don't really feel like Frontline or fipronil products work very well anymore. I prefer products like Revolution or Bravecto. Seresto collars also offer great protection.
