Comfortis Flea Control, Anyone use it?

I have used a spray that contains a ingredient called Ovatrol, it doesn't kill the fleas but makes them sterile. The spray also contains pyretherem (sp?), an extract of African daisy that is an insecticide. The fleas on the animal are killed but the ones that hop on later are sterile when they reproduce, thus breaking the breeding cycle. We literally have gone years between flea outbreaks and our cats and dogs are outdoors animals the cats hunt also.
I swear by this stuff, I have had cats that were killed by the internal and dermal treatments such as frontline.

I chose a different type of control.
Online people here in the states can buy flea and other pest control items from other countries that still allow retail sales.
I buy Revolution from Australia for the largest breeds and apply it as needed on my dog.
The barn cats get the same remedy but for the felines.
For the surrounding areas to the home (Away from the barn) I use a pyrethroid (Bifen I/T) sprayed quarterly from a tank in the bed of my Ranger.
Momma's got a no bug policy.
Bifen is a pretty good termiticide, as well. Annually, we empty the kitchen cabinets and spray inside them, as well as the pantry.
It's Florida at its finest.

Used Comfortis for several years now. Order mine from a place in Australia.

I've used it a couple of times on my Golden Retrievers. No problems with any of them (3) and no more fleas.

I went to e vet and they use NexGard. Seems safer than Frontline from what I can read, even though it is made by the same company.

Been using it on our cat for a while. She gobbled the first one down like it was a treat but every month since I've had to force feed it. She doesn't throw it up and it seems to work fine. She lives outdoors more than in and we haven't seen a flea or tick on her. Much better than putting that drop on her back. She hated that and went berserk every time we did it.

We've been using Trifexis for our dogs. It's a heartworm preventer, flea and tick control and intestinal worms. It's expensive but seems to work great on our 3 dogs.

Nexgard is by the same company as Heartgard. I wonder if they will combine at least those two.
