CheristinFlea Treatment & Prevention for Cats | Fast acting topical flea treatment for cats over 1.8 lbs | 3 Count

I live in South Carolina and the fleas here are immune to just about anything flea related on the market. I needed a fast treatment for one of my cats that refuses to allow me to use a flea comb on her. I noticed a small infestation one day and saw where she had it the worst. I tried a flea collar but it did not work and she was constantly scratching and licking herself so I had to find immediate relief. I turned to this brand because when my husband and I first got together, we got 2 cats. As kittens, they went for their shots and they gave us this to use to help with fleas (they were stray cats and did have some on them at the time). We gave it to them and noticed the fleas were literally falling off. Unfortunately, we saw adverse side effects on one of the cats. He became lethargic and just not his self. We ended up calling the phone number that was in the leaflet to report what was going on (we literally thought the stuff was poisoning our cat) but they said they would make note of the issue to forewarn other people. We didn't know that at the time, this stuff was brand new on the market, so I guess not a lot of information was known other than it did what it was supposed to do. I was worried that the issue would happen again with our other cat but I followed the instructions just as it said, to only put 3-4 drops near the base of the skull and not neck. It worked! It helped the problem and with a little bit of tweaking to remove the fleas, there were no more issues. It's a good way to get rid of fleas for the price! It's not too expensive and it actually works.

FINALLY something that works 🙌 We tried Frontline and we have him weekly flea baths after that didnt work. He would NOT keep a flea collar on, so Seresto didnt work. FINALLY we tried this and it worked. We try so so hard to keep fleas at bay and our other cat has zero issues. But this one has very dense fur and we have tried doing more than you can imagine to keep him without any fleas. Nee bruises, different flea treatments, trips to the vet. NOTHING worked..until this. This works. We finally found the answer. I've never seen a cat so resistant to flea treatment in my life, we were at the point of defeat! But thankfully there is Cheristin...thank you!

If you live in Florida, you either know or will soon know that our fleas have evolved to no longer be affected by most OTC flea treatments. This is the only one I know of that is still effective, and comes from a manufacturer that I am comfortable with. (Elanco also makes Credilio, Onsior, and lots of other prescription medications that cat owners are likely to recognize.)That said, it's not perfect. It takes a while to dry and can stay sticky for a couple of days, so you have to be careful not to pet your cat on the application spot. I'm not sure if I'd use this brand if I had young children who would be likely to touch it, but I also don't know that other options would be any better. It does have a stink to it, so if you have multiple cats, I think the smell is enough to deter them licking it off of each other. As far as I know, it is not effective against ticks, so a more comprehensive flea treatment from the vet is a step up if that's in your budget. Still, it works, and it's less expensive than prescription brands.

I love this product but it said if I bought $100 worth of eligible products I would get $30 back. I spent over $150 and still didn't get it.

I fell into an unofficial cat rescue of sorts over the past 9 years. As you can imagine, care when you have 14 cats can get pricey between vet visits, feeding, and health care. You can also imagine fleas can become a problem quickly.After the reviews you all left, I decided to try this brand and formula. It works great and my house, which was infested with fleas, became flea free within a month between cat treatments and carpet treatments.Is it pricey? Well, for me, it definitely is. But if you only have one or two cats, $78 for a 3-6 mo supply seems very reasonable to me.If you're on the fence, I recommend this product. It is a little oily and it does smell. But the cats don't seem to mind it and I know they enjoy the relief that comes from it!

Poor Poor quality piston was stuck in cylinder and painted over.Piston should have been wrapped separate and cylinder coated with oil. Also part didn't match OEM part after waiting all that time. Came on a very slow boat from China, took forever to receive.Then after all that they are charging me to return item that didn't match anyway.. Had to buy from a USA vender and had it in my hand in 2 days. Warning: DON'T BUY FROM CHINA

Oh what a lifesaver! This stuff actually works and works well. I have an outdoor cat that I cannot put a collar on because she roams and loses it. This has been the perfect solution. I've tried every thing you can imagine from the local Walmart and none of it even comes close to the effectiveness of this product. My cat scratched for a couple of hours after application but once that was over, she was fine. We are 4 weeks in right now and the product is still working! Well worth the money!!

We have an outdoor cat who had a bad flea infestation. We were using PetArmour Plus, but the fleas seem to be less affected by the fipronil ingredient in it now. Not sure if we got a bad batch or if the fleas are becoming resistant. Switched to this product and the fleas are gone.
