Got a stray cat that wandered in, left the house infested after a week.

Tried all the sprays and bombs from Pets at home, spent a bleeding fortune !
Every one I tried was rubbish, fleas back after a couple of days.

Formula C off Amazon, cheaper, highly effective, fleas were gone after a day, even gave the cat a blast on its neck, and its stopped scratching now.

Your carpets will need more than 1 dose due to the eggs being dormant for some time. So dont expect that 1 dose will cure the problem. 

Gave them a top up after a week, then another one 2 weeks later. 

Been flea free for 6 weeks now :good:

I think you have to get a prescription for advocate to buy it online, but advantage works pretty well.

I swapped to Advantage when Frontline stopped being effective. Not had fleas on any of the dogs or cats since we started using it.

You don't need a prescription to buy it online.

If you type "Advantage Flea" in Google lots of sellers come up. I have used the one above.

Thanks - I got confused between Advantage and Advocate. 

I was after the latter but might look at Advantage if it's a viable option.
