My cats are regularly treated for fleas, using Frontline Plus. However, they still scratch quite a bit. I don't see any fleas on them, so I don't know if they have fleas or if they're just scratching for the fun of it.
When I first got my two kittens, one had roundworms, and he was treated. We used Drontal Cat. Drontal is a treatment for both roundworms and tapeworms.
After the male kitten was treated, the female started getting tapeworms. We used Drontal on her as well.
Both kittens were doing well for a while. They had followup treatments, and like I said, have been treated for fleas, too.
Just last night, I found some tapeworm segments on the male cat.
I'm so disheartened about this. It's just turning into a never-ending cycle. Their health is the most important thing to me, and I must be doing something wrong if I'm treating them for worms and fleas, and the worms keep coming back, and my cats keep scratching. I don't know what to do anymore.
Any advice would be appreciated.
