French brand product reviews

In the warm season I always use drops front line for his little dog. For all the time of application, there were no complaints about the quality and effectiveness.

Yana, Voronezh

My pregnant cat managed to pick up fleas without leaving the balcony. I had to buy Front Line drops. This is one of the few remedies that can be used during pregnancy. Kittens were born healthy, so I do not regret the money spent.

Ksyusha, Volgodonsk

Front Line Spray purchased for a newborn puppy. They gathered to spend a few days outside the city and really wanted to take the crumbs with them. The amount of protective equipment for such babies can be counted on the fingers, so there was not much choice. The spray was tested perfectly.

Sergey, Tambov

I tested drops from different Front Line series on my dog. In addition to the fact that combos are more expensive and have an oily structure, they no longer find differences, and they have the same effect against fleas.
