    Gosh, $270!! That is expensive! Any chance you could make a deal with your vet and get it cheaper, since you have so many animals? Or perhaps get it from another place.

    I was lucky a while ago, my vet had some Advantage that was just out of date, I got that for less than half the price.

    I bought the Frontline at a Petco. I don't want to embarrass anyone, but the locals can't sell it ..., well that's another story. The vet gives me a huge break on other services though, fortunately.

    I buy the large dog size -- usually about four boxes. I split that up among the dogs and cats.

    How many applications are in each box, 3 or 6? Have you ever checked some of the on-line pet supply places?

    I buy Revolution for my cats. Need a prescription in this country, but not when ordering from Canada. I save several hundred dollars a year by ordering that way.

    There are three applications @ 4.02 ml. Each of the big dogs get 4 ml each; the other dogs get 2ml each; the cats get 1 ml each.

    So I start with 4 boxes @ 4 ml = 48 ml.
    Five big dogs @ 4 ml = 20 ml.
    Five other dogs @ 2 ml = 10 ml.
    13 cats @ 1 ml = 13 ml

    So 48 ml - 43 ml leaves 5 ml left over.

    Sorry to bore you with that. I was just checking my math.

    Okay. My source in Canada sells Frontline Plus for dogs as follows -

    3 applications for dogs 45 to 88 pounds - price $33.98

    6 applications for the same size dog - price $64.98

    6 applications for dogs 89 to 132 pounds - price $64.98

    Once you order over $100, there is NO shipping fee.

    I have been ordering from this company for several years with absolutely no problems, ever. I order online from the place in Manitoba, and the Revolution is mailed from Australia. Exact same stuff my Vet will sell me for almost twice the price.

    For sure. Thanks. I am paying about twice as much.

    Revolution

    As an aside, my Vet supplies me with Revolution for Eve, my cat. It is an excellent product and I usually purchase 6 applications at a cost of approximately $70 (CDN).

    If you are considering the online site posted above, you may want to check out their pricing for your kitties as well. I notice you have a few gorgeous felines in your menagerie

    Cheers
