Does anyone know a stockist of frontline in Sheffield?

I currently get 6 droplets for £18 from petmeds website (I think). I know this is cheap, because my vets sell it for a stupid £40 for 3 droplets.

Just wondering if I can get it anywhere cheaper. I dont even mind if its the same price or a little bit dearer but we're trying to 'shop local'. Would much prefer it cheaper though. I know that the sellers have to be 'trained' in selling it but I know how to apply drops on my cats neck :hihi:

Any ideas?

I know the pharmacy at the top of West Street stocks it, they had a sign in the window a while back. Not sure on price though.

I doubt you'll find anywhere better than the online prices you've already found to be honest. I've checked the pharmacy prices in a couple of pharmacies and they're not much cheaper than the vet price.

The pharmacy at Crookes sells it too-only seen the signs from the bus, and I can't for the life of me remember which pharmacy it is :roll: Will look next time I go to Uni (tomorrow morning). We get it off the internet just because it's so much cheaper-but we have got it from Pets At Home at Heeley once when we were desperate for some. Don't usually like using P@H but we needed some immediately, and had stupidly let ourselves run out.

Im only asking, because we have one left, due tomorrow. So will be buying some on payday. Petmeds, im sure thats the website I use (My mum orders it for me, at the same time she gets hers) only take 2 days to deliver. Very fast and cheap.


I'll check out the places listed above. Your not the only one LM who doesnt like P@H, I got my bunnies from there, THEN came on here and read what people think :(

Thanks for the fast replies :)

The online one we've used is www.petfleas.co.uk , the stuff arrived next day even though I ordered at 6.45 at night, how do they do that!?

Might have to order from there to see if I can beat that record :hihi:

I can only think they were really quiet and are based near the sorting office where collection is like 7.30 or something!

Was pretty impressed!

Yep I use petmeds - can only assume they are able to buy in such bulk that they can sell cheap. Doubt any stockist - pharmacy, vet or qualified pet shop could beat online prices.

I understand the local thing-but I think most of the places that sell them in their shops are big companies anyway-that's my excuse for being selfish and getting it cheaper online and I'm sticking to it :hihi:

I too buy mine at petfleas.co.uk they are much cheaper.
I have to use frontline on my cat, she has flea allergy dermatitis and its the only thing that works.
