Frontline Spray can be used from 2 days old.

Yes 2 days but word of caution its safer at this age to spray it onto kitchen towel and then gently rub on little bodies.

The spot on is for kittens 8weeks plus that weigh over a kg.

This site is a good resource for checking things like that http://www.noahcompendium.co.uk/Compendium/Overview/-21789.html (http://www.noahcompendium.co.uk/Compendium/Overview/-21789.html)

Thanks! :) Have forwarded the link to her, and told her it's safe to use on Indie! (He's around 14 weeks and I would say he's over a kg!)

My Misa is scared of all cans and if I pick up a coke can or an aerosal he just runs for his life. I know he had a bad life before but Kocka also was scared of aerosals and the noise they made and I have to think that she and maybe Misa were sprayed at one time.

So if the kitten id old enough for spot on frontline that would be best................they dont like that either but the alcohol in the spray makes their fur go all stiff and they smell awful  ;D

However if the little thing is covered in fleas the spray is the quickest way.

Fortunately the frontline spray is not an aerosol now Gill, a pump spray that is virtually silent. Phew!

You can also apply it by spraying it onto latex gloves.
