    You need to check with the agriculture dept in the UK to find out if you can bring these products into the country. If you are flying, check with your carrier about whether they will allow this to be brought by plane into the UK as well.

    If you can bring the product in, Frontline Flea and Tick is an excellent product. If you do not need tick protection, Frontline and Advantage make an excellent flea control product. You may be able to purchase them online to keep the 30 day schedule up once you get to the UK.

    Please do not use over the counter products. Most of them are not safe, and the brands that I have listed are the safest available. Also be sure that you get a product that is designed for cats. Do not use dog flea products on your kitties.

    Do a google search for Frontline and Advantage. Bayer makes Advantage, and they do have outlets online, in Europe.
