Spot-on use. Remove the Stronghold pipette from its protective package. Holding the pipette upright, firmly depress the cap to puncture the applicator seal, then remove the cap. Part the hair at the base of the animal's neck in front of the shoulder blades to expose a small area of skin. Apply the tip of the Stronghold pipette directly to the skin without massaging. Squeeze the pipette firmly to empty the contents in one spot. Avoid contact between Stronghold and fingers.
Contraindications, warnings

Do not allow treated animals to bathe in water courses until at least 2 hours after treatment.

Flea Control and Other Benefits
We have used the Stronghold flea control for our cat this past year and had excellent results. Our cat has not had any side effects from the product.

I have ordered the generic or f Revolution for my dogs for several years. Their prices are soooo much cheaper than any other company or your Vets office. Vets don't like it when people order online cuz pet meds is 1 way where they make extra profit. And I don't have heart worm tests every year to get my dogs medications. Vets make alot of money With heartworm tests and meds. BY LAW you do not have to do heartworm tests but vets want you to think that. This is your vets way of their rules to make such a big profit. Joes Pet Meds are the same medications that vets have. I have never had any problems with any of my animals. You will save alot of money thru Joes Pet Meds. Their meds are the true stuff.
Best Ever!
this is the best for cats! been using it for years!
Revalution
This is the best flea product on the market. It kills not only fleas, but their eggs, ear mites, and my cat scratches (due to allergies a lot less while on Revolution.
Effective Product to Protect Your Pet!
This product is easy to use and is very effective at preventing flea infestation, heartworm and ear mites. I live in Central Florida, USA where the weather is never really cold enough to kill fleas, mites or mosquitoes so they are a year round problem for my cat. I have been using this product (selamectin) for years and my cat has never had fleas, ear mites or heartworm. Her vet recommends selamectin as the preferred product for cats and dogs in Florida. The product is easy to use and my cat has never had a reaction or any adverse problems related to this product. It works and it's easy to use. What more could you ask for?
Stronghold for cats and dogs
I have used this on and off. I often switch products because the fleas sometimes become resistant. I am using Stronghold again for both my cat and small dog. It is working for the fleas and has the added bonus of covering heartworms. Both pets don't mind when I put it on their necks. Some products seem to be more irritating. They also don't seem to have other side effects. My dog has problems with nausea with some of the oral products, but not with Stronghold. I buy Stronghold rather than Revolution because it is a little cheaper and it is the same product (UK vs AU).
Joe's Is The Best for Buying Your Pet Medications
I have been buying from Joe's Pet Meds for 4 years and have never had a problem with my order. Joe's is simply THE best for buying pet medications. I have also used Revolution / Stronghold for 4 years and I can honestly say that this medication has killed fleas on my three indoor/outdoor cats. I now have a new puppy and will be using Revolution / Stronghold on her as well.
Effective flea control
A good alternative to the brand name Revolution. Though both medications are a little pricey, they are well worth it in flea and parasite control.
Stronghold is fantastic
Stronghold kills fleas better than most other products we have tried, When others failed Stronghold did the job. We have 4 dogs, and a few cats, as long as we use the Stronghold, the fleas are gone, and we've seen no worms ever. I highly recommend it.
Excellant heartworm medicine
I have used Revolution (the US version) for my dogs since they were little puppies. They are now 10 and 12 years old and have had clean blood tests all their lives. An excellent product that is reliable and easy to use.
