I do get mine from the vets. You can get it online cheaper, but there wise to it so nowdays a pescription from the vets costs £10.00 so it ends up costing the same, unless the company used uses a repeat pescription. Its the only thing I don't get off the net to be honest Xx

But thats 1 pipette evey month isn't it? I don't do moo nearly as regular, purely from avice on here that if she doesn't have fleas then why treat it. Only treat it if there is a possability or they have them. So she isn't done very often now at all and I have never had a problem Xx

Most vets will give you a prescription, but they'll charge you for it. Mine charge £10 (I think).

You tryed Frontline combo, Dont know personally I must say, But been told Its very effective, And fleaing needs doing really every 4-6 weeks, To keep top of fleas.
