Default NEED FRONTLINE (flea stuff) DOSAGE AMOUNTS

HI
We're looking after a BUNCH of cats at farm and want to treat them
with FRONTLINE PLUS to control fleas and ticks.
Since we have to treat a BUNCH of cats I guess it's cheaper
to just buy a LARGE DOG DOSE.
But I need the size of a cat dose (I think I read 5ml)
ALSO does anyone know the amount in a LARGE DOG DOSE
so I can figure out the cost Vs. buying it individualy??

ONE MORE THING if anyone would happen to know the dose
amount in CC's vs MLs I would appreciate it as we have ways
to accuratly make the cat dose but ONLY in CC's

Please just post to group or if emailing REMOVE, REMOVE from
email address.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

Kim

Can't help you with the dosages, but ml's [mililiters]and cc's [cubic
centemeters] are one and the same. They are equivilent. One equals the
other. 1 ml = 1 cc. :-)

The truth is ... out there.

According to medi-vet.com, the cat Frontline has 9.8% Fipronil and
11.8% S-methoprene, whereas the dog flavour has 9.8% and 8.8%
respectively.

So, using dog gunk on your cat will be fine, and - all else being
equal -conservative, indeed.

0.5 ml per cat (12 weeks and older) up to 15 lbs - make sure it is
plain Frontline and NOT Frontline Plus.
