When I put the revolution on my cat tonight she tried to run, I held her but it ended up more to the side rather than the middle. So she was able to lick her hair a little. Should I be worried? She's fine so far?
-
Revolution contains selamectin, a topical parasiticide, that should be applied at the base of the neck in front of the shoulder blades to avoid ingestion by the pet. According to the manufacturer, accidental ingestion in cats may cause salivation and possible vomiting. If you have concerns about how much product your cat may have consumed we recommend contacting your veterinarian. Thank you, VetRxDirect

how long does it take for revolution to kill fleas after application?
-
According to the package insert, laboratory studies found that greater than 98% of fleas were killed within the first 36 hours. The first application of this product will kill all fleas and eggs on your pet, but there is no information supporting when complete eradication will occur.The fleas on your pet, however, are only a small percentage of the fleas that could be infesting your home. Fleas like to be in dark places, such as carpet fibers, upholstery, bedding, and even behind baseboards. Some household cleaning tips to help get rid of fleas include: vacuum the carpets thoroughly (throw away the bag/empty out vacuum after each use as flea eggs can hatch within them); sweep and mop hardwood and linoleum flooring; wash your pet's bedding with hot water to kill the flea eggs and larva; and wash your pet's toys. Be sure to keep up this vigorous cleaning regimen until the flea problem is solved. You may consider treating your yard as well if fleas continue to be a persistent problem. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I have purchased revolution online many times and have never needed a prescription. Why do you require it!?
-
Revolution, as well as all other heartworm preventative products, do require a prescription from your veterinarian in order to be legally dispensed. Many veterinarians will require an exam and heartworm testing prior to prescribing Revolution. Talk to your veterinarian about getting a prescription for Revolution. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Revolution is a topical antiparasitic medication used in the treatment of fleas, heartworm prevention and ear mites in both dogs and cats. Revolution is also indicated for the treatment of ticks and roundworms in cats. The recommended application procedure for Revolution, as specified by the manufacturer, is to part the hair on the animals back, at the base of the neck in front of the shoulder blades, and squeeze the medication from the tube onto the skin. This administration location has been chosen to minimize the chance of accidental ingestion. Oral ingestion of Revolution has been studied in cats, with the most common adverse events observed being salivation and vomiting. Contact your veterinarian with any concerns regarding your animal’s health and to discuss additional treatment options for the management of the conditions discussed above. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I'm wanting to find a new vendor (I've always ordered pet Rx online) and I had a question before I tried out vetRxdirect. From a suggestion from my vet, I've always bought the 40# revolution dose and then split it between my two dogs. would this be okay?
-
You can do that, but we can only put one pet's name on a prescription. So if you wanted a 12 month supply but split it between the two pets, you would just put it under one pet's name. Thank you, VetRxDirect
