Yes the surviving fleas become super fleas and the treatments we now use don't bother them. When they breed their offspring are also super fleas. The same thing is happening with antibiotics.

Re: [Felvtalk] Fw: Flea Products
I thought Interceptor was only for dogs and that they haven't developed the cat type yet. Could you email us the ingredients of the cat type? I'm very interested because when I'm treating for fleas in the late fall and winter, I have to wait to be sure there will be 3 days in a row without rain. My outside cats think they are Gene Kelly, bouncing around to a tune in their head, Singing in the Rain. And it's so much easier to give a pill in a spoonful of ice cream then climb walls and run across the ceiling chasing after that last cat who does not want his dose of Frontline Plus. In addition, it's almost impossible to treat my house ferals. I managed to treat one of them on occasion and the one treated turned around and treated me to a 5 long scratch on my arm.

Re: [Felvtalk] Fw: Flea Products
I agree, my girlfriend went to vet in dispair trying to find something to help her cats rid of the fleas and they offered her a discount for Revolution, once upon her cats they too began losing their fur at the site of application, what was worse some of them were fighting her to put on so it was patchy. It's still not grown in correctly like before.
