When can I give kittens Revolution after Cheristin flea treatment?

I'm sorry to hear about your issue with Cheyletiella. They are a bothersome parasite to deal with! Apply Revolution every 2 weeks for 3 treatments (use appropriate dose for your kittens' weight). You can use Frontline Plus as well if you feel you aren't getting the results you wanted at the dosage of Revolution stated above. Fontline Plus can be applied every 2 weeks at the correct dose based off body weight for this problem. You should also use a lime silver dip or topical flea product to clean the kittens. Diluted bleach 1 part bleach:9 parts water sprayed on all surfaces and allows to sit for 10 minutes before wiping clean should help. All bedding and toys should be washed in hot water or thrown away. Good luck and thank you for contacting me today!

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I wouldn't apply the Revolution until 3 weeks after the Advantage. The red mites might be harvest mites, but I recommend having Speedbump seen by your Vet. I hope this helps!

It is generally ok to apply these two different topical medications 15 days apart but I would make sure that your kitten is at least 8 weeks old before using a fipronil based product. Good luck, those mites always make me feel itchy, I feel for you and your kitten!

I would not recommend using revolution for 3 more weeks. You can administer an oral capstan. This will kill all live fleas for 24 hours. Also, make sure you are treating the environment to help decrease and manage the life cycle

It is not necessary but probably best to wait until Giardia is completely resolved. REVOLUTION is safe for kittens as young as 8 weeks old so please make sure his age is appropriate before giving the product. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Great question! According to the package insert for Advantage 2, you can safely reapply once every two weeks, so it would be fine to give them the Revolution now. You can also give them Capstar. It's a one time pill that starts killing fleas in 30 minutes and is safe to give with the Revolution. Don't forget you will need to disinfect the environment as well. Wash their bedding in hot soapy water, and vacuum the furniture and carpet surfaces. You can use a spray to kill fleas in the house, such as Indorex, or a flea bomb would work well to kill the fleas in the home. I hope this helps!

According to the package instructions for Cheristin, it can only be given once a month, so you will have to wait until a month has passed before you can give her another full dose. Cats are exquisitely sensitive to flea medications, so it's very important to not overdose them with the medication. It's also important to disinfect the environment when a cat has fleas. Wash her bedding in hot soapy water, and vacuum the furniture and carpet surfaces. You can use a spray to kill fleas in the house, such as Indorex, or a flea bomb would work well to kill the fleas in the home. Next time you need to put a dose of Cheristin on your cat, I'd have a friend help hold her so you can get the full dose on.
