I would treat with both.   I asked my vet about this just last week as I've
been using Revolution regularly on all my cats, but I asked him about
whether it adequately protected my Gus (who nearly died from hemobart in
2004) from ticks. I was very surprised when he told me that Revolution does
nothing to repel ticks.  But Frontline does. So after talking to him, I am
continuing the Revolutoin for all the cats because of its anti-flea &
anti-parasite (worms) effectivelness. I 'll dose everyone on the first of
the month & then in the middle of the month I will dose Gus with Frontline.
You might want to talk to your vet about a similar regimen.
