Does Frontline prevent the transmission of tick borne diseases like Lyme Disease?
Although Frontline does not prevent the transmission of tick borne diseases, using Frontline reduces the time that a tick will spend on a pet, so disease transmission is less likely to occur. Tick borne diseases are usually transmitted after a tick has been attached for 48 hours or more, and Frontline will kill a tick within 24 to 48 hours of contact.
