I'd never heard of this. How much do you use?

re: Frontline & ticks -- In case anyone is interested ... Someone found a
lost ferret outside and when I went to pick him up, he was *covered* with
ticks. I put Frontline on him that evening and by the next morning the
ticks were dead. All were gone from his skin except two I had to remove
(that were still in the skin, but dead).
