I just put frontline on my dog about 2 weeks when i first got him, and i still see fleas occasionally on him. It's not a serious infestation, but I do see them and i was just trying to find what the cause was b/c today this morning I found 3 fleas crawling around his head. The crate that I got for him, I got it from my friend who has a dog that was infested with fleas, but the dog never stayed in his crate so he gave it to me for this dog. I cleaned it good and check it for anything kind of fleas or flea eggs before I let my dog stay in it, but is it possible that maybe there are fleas still in the kennel that i can't see that are jumping on him when i put him in there at night?
The other thing is, and i did bring this up before, the vet's assistant told me the way frontline works is that i put it on him and fleas just jump on him and die in a day and eventually i got to let all the fleas jump on him and die through his skin to get rid of them. So to see fleas on him occassionally is normal and it means the process is working. I don't know why, It just seemed kind of strange to actualy want fleas to jump on him in order to get rid of them. Anyone have any opinons on this?
