I personally prefer oral flea and tick preventive as I don't like the greasy feel to the topical ones. In certain areas Frontline doesn't seem to be as effective as it used to be, so I would take that into consideration as well if there are a lot of fleas where you live. You can try it though and always switch back if you like.
