Hi!

I don't know anything about that product, but this post, from a member who has both inside and outside kitties, mentions capstar and advantage;

I have used advantage with great results in the past.

Hi. What did the vet recommend? That might be your best option in determining what would be appropriate for your cat - not to mention your area. I have heard that some flea products are not as effective as others because they have been used to much in certain areas, and the fleas have built up an immunity to them. Your vet would probably also be aware if that would the case in your area.

Comfortis is an effective oral flea treatment for cats. These liquids are typically applied on one area of your cat and can last for a month before having to be reapplied. Many can start killing off fleas in as little as 12 hours.

I use something like Advantage on all of our cats. One of them is 18 years old and she has no adverse reactions to it.
Something Like Advantage: A less expensive, generic stuff, made up of the same ingredients in the same proportions as Advantage. Best I can tell, it's the exact same stuff, but, has a different name.
