Interesting.For one thing, the amount. Cat also gets exposed to far more flea medicine if you also use it at home.
Also more treatment might not be needed. My cat is on a monthly flea medicine and she goes outside daily, like my dog too. We never had a flea infestation.
Do you have a scientific study that backs up the assertion that an animal absorbs more of a properly applied premise spray than it does a monthly topical product applied directly to the animal? I'd like to see the research if it exists. Otherwise, aside from reactions in hypersensitive animals (which occurs with spot on treatments as well), my common sense (which could be flawed) tells me that there would be less chance of absorption of a premise spray compared to a spot on. Especially those topicals (and orals) which work by entering the bloodstream of the cat.
