How does FRONTLINE® Spot On work?
 | FRONTLINE ® Spot On is applied externally to your pet’s skin on the back of the neck. |  | The active ingredient, fipronil, quickly dissolves into the natural oils of your pet’s skin and coat, dispersing over the entire body surface within 24 hours and concentrating in the sebaceous glands (the skin’s oil glands) to form a reservoir. |  | Fipronil is then secreted with the sebum (the natural oils of the skin and hair), continuously coating your pet’s skin and hair for several weeks after application – in fact it’s the longest-lasting spot on flea treatment available. |
