Default PLEASE HELP! Fleas, fleas, FLEAS!

We are not millionaires, and we can't afford the prescription flea
treatments like Frontline or Evolution even though we know they work.


Unfortunately, you're going to end up spending more money if you get
the cheaper stuff
1. you'll use it more frequently
2. it just isn't as effective so you'll end up spending money on flea
bombs
3. in a worst case scenario, one of your cats will react to the cheap
stuff and you'll end up with a vet bill.

Frontline is worth the money in the long run.


Frontline is also just not that expensive.

Pet ownership isn't a fundamental right.. it's a luxury and a
responsibility. If proper care cannot be provided, the animal shouldn't
have been obtained in the first place. (Sorry to be so blunt, but it's
absolutely true.) Suppose an expensive vet bill arose? Broken leg,
etc?
