What is the difference between AdvantageII and Frontline for Cats? We're arguing the point!

The difference is the chemical used. AdvantageII works only on fleas, and it DOES work. Frontline is supposed to work on fleas, ticks, and others, but from my experience it does not work at all on fleas.

All I know is my flea meds will be here is late Aug. or Sept.....my cats need it now...I want my money back so I can get it NOW!

I'd say they're about the same. I don't know what kind of infestation that I have as my cats have never had fleas before. I have the Victor trap about a foot away from a pie pan filled with soapy water and I see about 6-10 fleas in each one.

Yes they both do the same thing. I have two different refill plug-ins but these work in both of them. The effect on my cat is the same as well. I didn't realize the difference when I had first ordered the refills years ago until I saw the difference in plug-ins. My cat, never knew the difference, LOL.

The difference in them is the strength one is prescription strength that you have to get through the vet 3% verses 2% of the one thing that calms the cats that is all. But the both work

I don't think I've ever noticed a difference. I think we've used both for our single cat.

The only difference is price. I bought the cat first and then the small because it was cheaper. The products are identical and use the same filter.

We have 2 cats. One is about 9 years old. We used to use Advantage. The 9 yr old started to get a rash. Our Vet said she is old & her skin has gotten tender. We got the collar, with reflectors, she has not scratched since. The other cat is 5 years old and will roll in everything. (mud,water,gutter water) this collar is great for indoor & outdoor cats. Hope this helps.

Hi, advantage will kill the fleas on your cat. You have to use it on your cat every month in the warm weather months. If you have carpets in your house you may have to use a bomb. I do not have tile floors as I live in the tropics, I have never bombed my house. This all depends on whether you see or feel fleas in the carpet.

I am sorry, I don't know. I only use Frontline Plus on my own dogs. This was ordered for a rural animal shelter that can't afford Frontline or Advantix. This is all that they use and if there had been any problems; they would not still be using it.

I don't know. The system did not work for my 3 and 6 year old cats. Good luck

I'm not sure how to tell the difference, but a vet I spoke with recently claimed that fleas have been working up a tolerance to the product. The vet suggested teaming this product up with a collar (ineffective as well) to alternating with the Advantage brand.

Seresto protects against fleas, ticks and flea eggs, but Frontline also protects against lice, so if you need that protection, it may be better to stick with the Frontline. I would check with my vet before using the products together. Seresto contains the same drugs as those in the Advantix drops, and I would think that there may be some interactions pairing those with the Frontline drops.

That, I don't know. I was having trouble with my cat marking and since using comfort zone my cat has stopped marking and seems more relaxed and calmer. Good luck.

I don't know because I never used Feliway, but I didn't see any difference in my cat using the Nature's Miracle... A waste of money if you ask me.

I have purchased both & there is very little difference between the both. the one for the long hair cat has comb teeth very slightly longer. I would buy the one for long hair.

The red bottle is definitely better and worth the cost; I have used both and now loyal to the red. But buy at Amazon.com, at the big name pet stores it is as much as $40 for the big huge bottle. It removes the pheromones total reducing the cats tendency to do it in the same spot. It is also just overall better at completely getting rid of cat urine smell and stain. It works on even more surprising stains. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS!! DO NOT USE ANY OTHER CLEANER BEFORE OR AFTER. Good Luck!!

I actually just called the company and they said there is no difference between the two models. They just market them differently for those people who have small dogs or cats. So go with the cheaper one (small version)!
