Flea and tick prevention is an important part of being a great pet parent—these nasty pests are not only a nuisance, they can cause serious and even fatal health problems in your cat. Fortunately, there are highly effective flea and tick preventatives that can protect your cat no matter what adventures she has.
Things to consider when buying prescription flea & tick medication for cats:
Flea and tick medications are typically administered as a topical liquid you apply to your cat's skin directly or as tablets that you can mix with food or treats. Many pet parents find that their cat tolerates the tablets better, but your vet can help you pick the right form.
Our pharmacy team is available 24/7, 365 days a year. Call Chewy Pharmacy at 1-877-977-3879
Get cat flea and tick medication prescriptions online at Chewy Pharmacy by visiting your vet and talking about flea and tick control options. Your vet can write you a prescription for the product and dose that’s appropriate for your kitty. Then, go online and add the prescribed product to your cart. At checkout, you can add your cat’s info and vet contact information so Chewy can verify the prescription on your behalf. That’s all you need to do to order your prescription cat flea medications from Chewy!
The best prescription flea and tick treatment will vary by the age, health, lifestyle and habits of your cat and can best be determined by your vet. Popular brands include Comfortis, Advantage Multi, Revolution and Bravecto, but there are many others that may uniquely suit your situation. Many come as once-a-month topicals or chewable tablet doses for easy use. Check out some of the great reviews on our site to learn more about which ones might be best for your bestie!
The difference between over-the-counter and prescription flea and tick medication is that you need a vet to prescribe the latter. The ingredients in prescription medications are more carefully controlled and regulated, so dosing can be more precise and possibly safer. Many prescription treatments are more effective than over-the-counter products, as well. Your vet can give you the most up-to-date information on what works well, what may be safest and what will be most convenient for you.
Cat flea treatments work in different ways depending on which product you use. Prescription oral and topical flea treatments usually work by depositing chemicals into your cat’s sebaceous glands. These chemicals then spread out over the body as your kitty’s coat lubricates itself, neutralizing fleas and ticks by acting on their central nervous system. This prevents them from feeding on your feline and causing irritation, itch, parasites and disease.
