I feel terrible Motley was treated with frontline plus on saturday evening. We have used frontline on him but we saw a different vet to usual and he persuaded me to buy the more expensive frontline plus. 72 hrs later Motley has come out in red weeping sore at the stie of application and has hair loss all round the area. Please could someone from Babworth inform the other people that adopted Roxy's pups incase his brothers and sisters suffer this same reaction. Its pretty painful for him I have google reactions and it seems a lot of cats and dogs react to this stuff. Some have even died from it

OMG...get well Motley!
Not wanting to sound tight with money but we always go for the cheaper option...worming tablets/flea drops etc at Pets at Home. We had a sim thing with worming tablets at our vets, Bear was sick as a dog with the ones from the vets!!!
Hope all of Roxy's pups owners read this!!!

Aw bless him, poor lad. We only have ordinary Frontline for Marley too, never tried the plus and won't now. Our cat Barney is allergic to the ordianry Frontline for cats, when we put it on him a few years ago his mouth swelled up and he was drooling, pretty scary.

his skin is healed now and some hair has started to grow back, i think he will have some tiny bald bits but it could have been so much worse!
Do those electronic flea comb things work? i might get one of those to avoid chemicals in future!
