Expensive but worth it!
From UndisclosedComments about Revolution (selamectin) for Cats 5.1-15 lbs, 6 Month SupplyFleas were especially bad this year and while 5 year old Pullman who is a 3 legged, indoor only rescue is one hilariously spicy boy by default, an unexpected infestation sent him over the edge. Other monthly treatments are proving to wear out at three weeks so while more expensive, revolution is not only the more durable option it also addresses other pests at the same time. This was even safe enough to use on my 14 1/2 year old kitty Lincoln who has some age related chronic issues... but fleas aren't one of them now! I've used Revolution for over a decade and it's been consistently effective so long as you don't skip multiple months - especially during summer and early fall!-
MOM!!! Imma gonna start my own revolution if you don't get rid of these fleas!

Q & A

When I put the revolution on my cat tonight she tried to run, I held her but it ended up more to the side rather than the middle. So she was able to lick her hair a little. Should I be worried? She's fine so far?
-
Revolution contains selamectin, a topical parasiticide, that should be applied at the base of the neck in front of the shoulder blades to avoid ingestion by the pet. According to the manufacturer, accidental ingestion in cats may cause salivation and possible vomiting. If you have concerns about how much product your cat may have consumed we recommend contacting your veterinarian. Thank you, VetRxDirect

how long does it take for revolution to kill fleas after application?
-
According to the package insert, laboratory studies found that greater than 98% of fleas were killed within the first 36 hours. The first application of this product will kill all fleas and eggs on your pet, but there is no information supporting when complete eradication will occur.The fleas on your pet, however, are only a small percentage of the fleas that could be infesting your home. Fleas like to be in dark places, such as carpet fibers, upholstery, bedding, and even behind baseboards. Some household cleaning tips to help get rid of fleas include: vacuum the carpets thoroughly (throw away the bag/empty out vacuum after each use as flea eggs can hatch within them); sweep and mop hardwood and linoleum flooring; wash your pet's bedding with hot water to kill the flea eggs and larva; and wash your pet's toys. Be sure to keep up this vigorous cleaning regimen until the flea problem is solved. You may consider treating your yard as well if fleas continue to be a persistent problem. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I gave my cats Advantage on 9-16-14 and it hasn't seemed to help. Is it too early to apply revolution? Also, I'm giving the cats a bath tomorrow - how long should I wait before giving Revolution??

Cathie, Revolution (selamectin) and Advantage (imidacloprid) are different classes of medications with different mechanisms of action to counter fleas, however, an interaction between the two when used in succession has not been well documented. You should consult with your cats’ veterinarian to determine if additional treatment is needed, or if an alternative product should be used. Advantage (Imidacloprid) topical solution is generally administered once monthly, consulting with your pets’ veterinarian will help determine if month-to-month treatments can be used safely for optimal flea control. Per the manufacturer, Advantage kills all life stages of fleas within 12 hours and prevents against future infestations by killing re-infesting fleas within 2 hours. Wetting of a pet’s coat following application does not appear to affect the duration of action, although frequent applications of shampoo may require you to apply additional treatment. Revolution (selamectin) should be applied at least 2 hours before bathing your pets, or allowing them to swim. Revolution should not be applied to wet hair coats. Your pets coat should be dry before application. Thank you, VetRxDirect
