About FRONTLINE HOMEGARD Household Flea Spray

FRONTLINE HOMEGARD Household Flea Spray kills fleas, flea larvae & ticks and in most cases, one treatment of FRONTLINE HOMEGARD is enough to see you through until the end of the infestation. It not only kills fleas but also stops their eggs from hatching and re-infesting the home. This is a tried-and-trusted, powerful formula that is highly efficacious and fast-acting. Suitable for non-washable furniture and home textiles.

Protecting your home for up to 6 months and helping you prevent future infestations. Please remember it’s always best to treat the pet according to its lifestyle. For best results, use in conjunction with a FRONTLINE Flea and Tick Treatment for your pet.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE DIRECTLY ON ANIMALS. DO NOT USE ON CAT BEDDING OR BASKETS. KEEP CATS AWAY FROM TREATED SURFACES UNTIL THE SURFACE IS DRY.

Permethrin is a substance toxic to cats above certain concentrations. This is why it must not be applied to cats or other pets, and they should be kept in a separate room during application.

How to use FRONTLINE HOMEGARD Household Flea Spray

Remove flea life stages already in the home, vacuum all floors and soft furnishings in the house and the car, and wash pet bedding at 60°C. This helps remove different stages of the flea life cycle, including eggs, larvae and pupae.

Before treating the home with FRONTLINE HOMEGARD, remove all pets and children from the area. Pet bedding, cat baskets, pet feeding and water bowls should be removed. Make sure fish tanks are covered to ensure they are airtight, and that pumps are switched off during treatment and until after the room has been aired.

Before spraying, close all windows and doors. It is recommended to do a patch test prior to use on delicate fabrics. Use only lightly on glossy or wooden surfaces, to avoid spotting. Treat one room at a time. Spray from a distance of 30cm (1 foot) at a rate of 1.3 seconds per square metre. When treating each room, pay particular attention to non-washable flea hotspots, making sure to spray along skirting boards, in any cracks and crevices, on all soft furnishings, carpets (including areas under furniture), and in the car. Spray the inside of the vacuum dust bag or cylinder to stop any fleas from developing. Always dispose of the vacuum contents outside to stop fleas from hatching indoors. Exit the treated room and make sure neither you nor the pets re-enter for 1 hour after treatment or until the treated areas are dry, and then air. Open access: Give treated pets access to all their usual areas. This encourages pupae lying dormant in the environment to hatch into adults, which will jump onto the pet. Once on the pet, the pet’s flea treatment will kill the fleas.

REMEMBER: Most home infestations resolve after about two months, but if the infestation is particularly heavy or the weather has cooled, it can take longer. For best results, use alongside your pet’s regular flea & tick treatment.

To resolve a home infestation, fleas hatching from pupae already hidden within the home must jump onto treated pets. It is normal to see fleas on treated pets. Flea products don’t stop fleas from jumping on the animal, and some fleas can take up to 24 hours to be killed, depending on the treatment used. So, if pets go outdoors, they may pick up occasional “hitchhiker” fleas, but this won’t result in a home infestation if the pet is treated regularly.

For full instructions and warnings, please read the product label before use. Do not use on cats or other animals.
