Feline Flea Study

What is the Purpose of this Study?

Feline Fleas are found frequently from Spring through Fall and can lead to lifelong illnesses. It is important to treat infestations as quickly as possible, which is why we are currently enrolling a study for a potential new flea treatment for cats!
