Pet Approved Flea and Tick Medication |Chipman Animal Clinic

Friendly felines may think they are independent, but they are completely dependent on you for flea and tick control. Your kitty only knows they hate the itchy irritations that cause them to scratch so much. 

You know that besides the bothersome itch, fleas and ticks can carry all kinds of diseases. What you may not know is how tough it is to kill fleas-and to keep flea eggs, larvae, and pupae from causing infestations.


If flea and tick control is not taken care of effectively and promptly, the itchy problem will get out of control. Over-the-counter treatments are not reliable so your veterinarian will recommend the best products for effective flea and tick control for your cats.


Vectra for Cats

Vectra for cats is formulated to protect your cats and kittens from fleas and ticks. This safe and veterinarian-approved flea and tick treatment is a once-a-month topical treatment that starts killing fleas in just 2 hours after application and after 6 hours they are all gone. Vectra is effective against all the growth stages of fleas, thus preventing flea infestations and re-infestations. This convenient topical treatment is safe for kittens as young as 8 weeks old.
