M. Franc et Mc. Cadiergues, EFFICACY OF A DICHLORVOS-FENITROTHION AGA INST CATS FLEAS (CTENOCEPHALIDES-FELIS), Revue de Medecine Veterinaire, 146(5), 1995, pp. 341-344
Two groups of ten domestic cats have been artifically infected with Ct
enocephalides felis. First group has been treated with a Dichlorvos/Fe
nitrothion formulation at the recommended dosage (1 second/kg) and the
other remained as untreated controls. The total diminuation of fleas
was evident 24 hours after treatment. 93% of reinfections has been pre
vented for at least one week.
