Does this affect topical flea preventatives?

Not sure why it would unless you are removing a large amount of hair. I haven't had any problem with it.

i have not used this product on my cats, but i've used it on myself and my horses (for fly/mosquito repellent) with no ill effects. i'm not sure how effective i woudl be against fleas, but i don't think it would be an issue.

No I do not believe so, at least I saw no indication that it does. From my understanding it just kills the adult fleas in the first 24 hrs and then must be used monthly for it to work as a preventative. My cats are strictly indoors so I never look at tick products.

The first time I applied this treatment I was also using Frontline. I saw no adverse reaction from my 6lb. Maltese. Since then I haven't used any other treatments, over 12 mos. I have found this to be most effective by itself with no need for other flea treatments

I am having the same issue as Cathy. Historically this product worked very effectively as both a preventive and treatment, and a few months ago we started hearing reports of fleas that had developed immunity. Then, all heck broke loose and a full-fledged infection happened with a dog that had used Frontline successfully for almost a decade. I am in Maryland. The Vet told us the same thing.

Dunno, I don't have fleas, but it does not seem to work on much. I have it, as instructed, plugged it into the wall where nothing is obstructing it and watched a small critter crawl up the wall not less than 3" away from it. I watched and waited for it to have a seizure or start walking in circles, but he crawled up in a straight line without concern until I had to squash it. I am doubtful this product works very well and wish I could get my money back to buy another bright idea that is supposed to eradicate.

I didn't have problems with flea eggs so I couldn't tell if the product was effective for treating them. I used it mostly for spiders and other small insects. I recently had termite inspection done in my house. I was told my house was clean of insects (except for some termite problems).

It works well on fleas if they come in contact with the sprayed moisture. I tested by capturing three fleas, putting them in a glass jar, and spraying a light mist into the jar. All 3 fleas died instantly on contact. The challenge is making sure they come in contact with the solution before it dries. I don't know if the dried solution will kill them.

Don't think it is for fleas. We bought it for our Dog to help him not inch because of allergies.

I don't know for sure. I use it on my dog as a natural flea and tick repellent and it works.

I bought this product in order NOT to give my dogs a monthly topical treatment. I rub it on them when I go into an area where I expect there may be fleas or ticks present. Fortunately I can often avoid those areas and still give them good exercise.

Yes. But you still need to use a flea prevention on your pet, (frontline, pet armor etc.) I sprayed aroundmy home, all the base boards, windows, doors and any cracks. I did the same on the outside as well. Fir the lawn area I used a more powerful product. But ecosmart is and makes great products.

I have used this product and it does help, however the Precor makes it last and more effective. I have found that keeping down on the grass of surrounding areas and keeping my animals up on their Confortis (flea) pills is the most beneficial. The ticks are the worst this year(in the south), but I have had flea issues that I combatted them with this product and it worked.

Not too sure honestly. We have a dog and she doesn't have fleas but I don't know if it's because if that.

I really don't know. I used it in the Adirondack's so I know it's very effective for mosquito's and a variety of flies. I don't believe I was around fleas.

My understanding is that it has to build up in the system which is why I begin giving it to my dog and cat before flea season gets going. I can't say if it works at killing an existing infestation of fleas, but in my experience it repels fleas from becoming a problem.

Actually, I never tested it on fleas and I don't have any pets to test that theory. I purchased it to assist in the removal of silverfish in my home, and it appeared to help very well while also keeping clothes from getting musty.
