Flea treatments from the pet shop often don't work, see the vet and get Frontline, this will rid them both of fleas.

Give your cat a flea bath after the cat is thoroughly dry, then apply the frontline, the bumps should go away on their own, but if it doesn't you probably would have to take her in to the vet, mostly like give you a steroid injection to help with the swelling and itching.

Hi,I would take your cat to a vet to get the bumps treated because they might be infected and then speak to the vet about flea treatment, the vet will probably recommend Frontline because it's one of the best.I have used this on my kitten for 5 months now and since then he has not had a single flea on him.I decided to try it after reading so many great reviews about it on her,it's brilliant stuff.good luck.

Do you have your cat on a monthly flea program like Frontline? Very helpful. Your cat may have a slight infection and need an antibiotic shot to help with the healing. I would take it to the vet and get it checked out and ask about Frontline. Good luck!

Flea baths don't work. Nothing from a pet store does. Pop in to a vets to get a proper treatment, like Frontline - one that actually WORKS. Pet stores aren't licensed to sell the proper chemicals for flea treatment - anything you find in store is just going to be a basic pesticide that you can't expect to work.

Fronline is the way to go - also wash all the cats and dogs bedding (even your beding) so that it is completely free of flees. However bumps on the cats skin might mean that they have an allergy to fleas so you will have to really keep on top of the flee situation and regularly fronline both pets and hover. I also get this stuff called Alklaim (sold at most pet shops) and spray it on furniture and flooring as it kills and prevents flees. Good Luck!

curiously like she allergic to the kitty, i became into allergic to one among my cats, fortuitously i've got been given used to him and are not getting the rash anymore. looks like she in basic terms desires some piriton. you have got animals all your life then one comes alongside that your physique in basic terms would not accept as true with, wether its there hair or there saliva do not get rid of the unfavourable kitty as you daughter is obviously nicely related. in basic terms verify with the rfile that that's an hypersensitivity rash and that they're going to hand out the anti hypersensitive reactions for her. stable success.
