Good for cats who are sensitive to chemicals. You have to treat whole house since is does not work on eggs but hatched fleas comb out dead with in minutes. My girls were getting sores from other brands. They are indoor only and we went 6 years of no fleas until a neighbor let her cat get into my house. Definitely recommend.

I've bought many different kinds of flea products for my cat and this is the ONLY one that works expensive but worth it to keep my cat free from scratching herself constantly. great product

Better Than All the Rest
Cheristin worked better than other better-known flea medications. Fleas were practically DOA with all three cats. All of them were kind of subdued for a couple of days; I don't know if that's a side effect, but after that, they were happier campers and so am I.
