Product Description

Cheristin is a topical flea treatment designed specifically for cats and available without a prescription. It provides fast-acting relief from flea infestations, killing fleas in 30 minutes with 98% - 100% of fleas killed in 12 hours and working faster than Frontline Plus and Advantage II.

Unlike other flea treatments for cats, Cheristin's low-volume dose is approved to use on kittens and cats over 1.8 lbs. and greater and 8 weeks of age and older, making it a perfect addition to multi-cat households who don't want to worry about keeping track of multiple products by cat size.

Cheristin is an easy-to-apply topical flea treatment for cats with a non-greasy, quick-drying formula. It is designed with a rounded tip applicator that delivers a gentle dose. Hold applicator tube in an upright position and open applicator tube by twisting the nozzle tip. Part the hair on your cat's neck at the base of the head until the skin is visible. Place the open tip of the tube directly above their skin and squeeze 2-4 times to expel the contents onto the skin. Discard the empty tube and in 30 minutes, fleas will begin dying.

Cheristin is available in single-dose packs or 3 and 6-dose packs. Stock up and save on future orders of Cheristin topical flea prevention with a subscription, and gain peace of mind that you'll always be prepared for your cat's next dose.

Cheristin is a trademark of Elanco or its affiliates.

My 10 yr. old cat has never been outside, so I was surprised to find fleas on her and in my house. I believe they came from a visiting dog. I bought this Cheristin to treat her and it worked perfectly with no side effects.

I thought i was ordering tablet (oops!) but this stuff worked great, followed directions of putting it on behind her neck where she cant lick…. By the end of day i was noticing dead fleas falling out of her fur. Next time Im going to pair this with a flea bath and house treatment. Unfortunately i feel like it only worked on adult fleas or fleas that bit immediately after application soaked in…. Within 2 weeks i noticed her scratching again… definitely did its job, just wished it was a bit longer lasting so that when the younger fleas bite they die off too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive but it kills our resistant fleas
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2019
Size: 6 DosesVerified Purchase
So fleas are the bane of many pet owners' existence. It's a constant struggle for Texans because we don't even really have a flea season - it's all year long. Still, I managed to stay on top of things until a couple of years ago, when I noticed our topical, once-a-month flea treatments didn't seem to be working as well. Over time, they stopped working altogether. And I tried them all - Advantage, Frontline, Advantage II, Frontline Plus. I began resorting to using Capstar in between monthly treatments just to keep my pets from being eaten up. And of course, I sprayed my yard, washed the pet bedding regularly, vacuumed daily, put diatomaceous earth on my pets, and sprayed the inside of my house. (My six cats are strictly indoor cats but my dogs do go outside to potty.)

I finally accepted that our fleas had become resistant to common flea treatments and went in search of other treatments. A friend told me about Cheristin so I bought it and applied it to all of my cats. The box says it's best to apply to the base of the back of the head rather than between the shoulders and cautions not to let cats ingest the product. Holy cow - this stuff works! Within 24 hours, I found dead fleas on my cats when I combed them. Within 3 days, I could not find a single, live flea on any of my cats! Hurray!

This is a once a month treatment. This product alone will not eliminate a flea infestation. You will need to use a multipronged approach by washing pet bedding, vacuuming daily, treating carpeting and soft furnishings, etc. You may even need to use flea foggers if you have a bad outbreak in your home but this does a good job of killing any fleas the take up residence on your cat.

All topical flea treatments have to potential to cause localized hair loss, and other symptoms that are more serious so I strongly suggest watching your cat carefully when you first apply this, or any other, flea treatment. I was a little anxious but all of my cats were fine afterward and they are flea-free. It's kind of expensive but it works so I have it on Subscribe and Save now. Thank goodness I found something that works again!

Update: More than 2 summer months later, my cats are still flea-free with no bad side effects. Not even any localized hair loss, which they often had when I used Frontline. Very pleased.

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2024
Size: 1 DoseVerified Purchase
I can tell you right now, this stuff has been the only one to help my one cat. Literally almost to zero fleas. Super tiny babies but nothing severe like it was. I tried advantage 2 Literally would last like maybe 2 or 3 days, and it would be worst all over again. Immediately the same day this was already working. The next day I was finding dead ones everywhere. By the 4th day I would brush my cat and maybe like 2 came out and they were dead. This is a damn miracle. They are literally almost gone, just a few stragglers but they do not stay on my cat at all. Just buy it especially if others aren't working. My poor cat was suffering no amount of brushing and bathing was helping enough until this. My cat is way better now, sleeping better and more active. Thank you so much for saving my cat be fore he turns one years old. Ill be buying again.
