"Do not waste your money on this product. We bought it for two cats, it helped for maybe two days, then they were scratching like crazy. Take my advice, and spend the extra money for Advantage. I bought it yesterday from my vet, and by this morning, my cats were sleeping soundly, and looked very comfortable. My male cat likes to sleep on a pink towel, and that had dead fleas on it this morning. So buy Advantage, you will be very satisfied"

It's a Dud Date: September 23, 2008
"I tried Biospot on my cat Sydney, who has a pretty bad flea problem. I put it on him 2 months in a row and the fleas are still going strong. You really do need to get the "good stuff!""

COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY/ENGERGY/TIME Date: September 16, 2008
"I HAVE TWO CATS, I HAVE USED REVOLUTION IN THE PAST AND GOT EXCELLENT RESULTS. I STOPPED USING IT FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND GOT INFESTED WITH FLEAS, SO I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE THIS PRODUCT A TRY SINCE IT IS A LOT LESS THAN REVOLUTION. IT WAS A WASTE OF MONEY AND IT MADE THE FLEA PROBLEMS WORSE, JUST BUY THE MORE EXPENSIVE PRODUCT."

Waste of money!!! Date: September 5, 2008
"Bio Spot is absolutely useless. Few days after I applied it on my cats and there is no result. It even seams like the fleas have increased in number. Do yourself a favor and don't waist your money on it!"

No better than Hartz! Date: July 30, 2008
"I do not recommend this product. I have 2 cats and 2 dogs and all still had fleas several days after application. I waited a few weeks and applied Frontline and the fleas were immediately gone. It's just not worth it to try and save money when nothing else works."

Been using this for more than a decade. Date: April 7, 2008
"I just noticed the poor reviews. So I thought I'd contribute. I've been using this product for possibly 14 years. Can't remember, exactly. And I've had no problems. It might be noteworthy that I've only had to flea-bomb an apartment when I had 7 additional kittens (total of 10 cats, temporarily) in cow-country Connecticut. Back then, I think I was still using flea collars, tho. But since the environmental situation had been taken care of, never another problem. Kittens were way too young for treatments. And it took a couple treatments to my small apartment to clear it out. Since I switched to the spot, things have always been good.
My original 2 cats, mother and son, have used this product most of those years. Mother kitty used this until she was nearly 17, when she passed on. Son still hunting and exploring at 15! Never had an out-break of fleas. Rarely, a tick can be spotted crawling on them, but not biting. New girl kitten addition (age 1.5) is also using this product this year.
My cats live like kids. Live inside, play outside with curfews. No playing outside in bad weather. They've lived in rural country to just-suburban but still wooded. I treat them only during flea/tick season. (6 mo/yr) New England winters don't support fleas/ticks! And they're mostly inside in the winter. AND, they live with a greyhound who goes everywhere with me, from park to hiking trails!
The flea/tick wipes are only good for 2 weeks (says so on package). Good starter for the spring season. Only complaint is that keeping the product on my shelf too long isn't good. One package evaporated! But wipes are sealed well.
So unless the formula changed or the environment has become much more hostile than this product can support, it has worked well enough for the buck for me and my clan. I will update if it's different!
I don't bathe my cats. They bathe themselves. I don't use any other flea/tick meds. I'm a minimalist. Don't want to have them use chemicals if I can avoid it.
Also, I keep them inside after the spot treatment until they oily spot is mostly gone. It takes a day or so for the med to spread and work. I let them out right away after the wipe. They don't like smelling like flowers & powder, but that's just too bad! ;o)
Keep in mind that fleas will jump off the cats and live/breed in a better environment, like bedding, other animals, etc. in your house. Take it from me! I've had a zillion kittens! (All placed into good homes.) The kittens get infected from the cats that go outside. There were lots of cats in the neighborhood that came over to play/hang. Once inside, it's a big project to get them out! Once out of your house and off the cats, the product works fine per cat. Trust me, I never want to go thru that fleas problem again!
Like I said, will update if this season is too aggressive for the product. Hopefully, not."

High hopes,little return Date: September 13, 2007
"I purchased this product because there were very few available for kittens at time of purchase. Unfortunately, it did not work.
I used product as directed, IN ADDITION TO a flea shampoo prior to usage."

Works okay Date: September 4, 2007
"Like other spot-ons, this product still leaves an oilspot for a couple days, which isn't so bad. However, the product seems only somewhat effective - killing many fleas, but not all. I've applied it to two young indoor cats, once about 10 days after bathing, so they had accumulated some fleas and flea dirt already. The second application was after they dried, on the same day of the bath. Both times, only a partial kill, and not lasting more than ten days, I'd say. I'm ready to try something else. (And yes, I vacuum weekly and have sprayed the environment and wash bedding weekly...)"
