To kill fleas, all stages of brown dog ticks, American dog ticks, lone star ticks, deer ticks (which may carry Lyme disease) and chewing lice, apply to dogs or puppies (8 weeks or older) as follows: >Remove applicator from child-resistant package.

FREQUENCY OF APPLICATION
When used monthly, FRONTLINE® PLUS FOR DOGS completely breaks the flea life cycle and controls tick and chewing lice infestations. Research demonstrates that FRONTLINE® PLUS kills adult fleas, flea eggs, and flea larvae for up to three months. FRONTLINE® PLUS also prevents development of all flea stages for up to three months. Although FRONTLINE® PLUS can control fleas for up to three months, if there is a high risk of reinfestation or if the pet has fleas which may cause flea allergy dermatitis, a once monthly application may be needed. FRONTLINE® PLUS kills ticks for at least one month. A once monthly application is recommended where tick control is needed. FRONTLINE® PLUS kills chewing lice for at least one month.
