Advances in the control of (cat flea) on cats and dogs
Abstract
Cat fleas are the most important ectoparasite of cats and dogs worldwide. During the past ten years, topical and oral applications of insecticides such as fipronil, imidacloprid, lufenuron and, most recently, selamectin have revolutionized cat-flea control. Recent studies show that these therapies eliminate the need to treat indoor and outdoor environments, and their use markedly reduces the severity and prevalence of flea allergic dermatitis. Surveys have yet to reveal the development of insecticide resistance to these chemical compounds. Extending the longevity of these effective host-targeted therapies should be a major goal of the veterinary community.

In the citing paper
“Canine and feline pulicosis is characterized by high infection rates everywhere [7,9,11-14], thus treatment and prevention are a priority in veterinary medicine.”
From Fleas infesting pets in the era of emerging extra-intestinal nematodes (2013) · cites this paper as [7]
In the citing paper
“These fleas have a low degree of species-specificity, being able to infest companion animals, humans and wildlife.”
From Fleas infesting pets in the era of emerging extra-intestinal nematodes (2013) · cites this paper as [7]
In the citing paper
“The most widespread is the cat flea Ctenocephalides felis (Figure 1), which is highly prevalent in both dogs and cats in all corners of the world.”
From Fleas infesting pets in the era of emerging extra-intestinal nematodes (2013) · cites this paper as [7]
In the citing paper
“In general, a year round approach is not applied for fleas by pet owners and veterinarians, because control of pulicosis is traditionally suggested from late winter or early spring and continued throughout summer until autumn.”
From Fleas infesting pets in the era of emerging extra-intestinal nematodes (2013) · cites this paper as [7]
In the citing paper
“This is usually based on seasonal treatment with formulations containing residual insecticides and/or repellents [7,17,18,101,147], most of which are out of the scope of the present article.”
From Fleas infesting pets in the era of emerging extra-intestinal nematodes (2013) · cites this paper as [7]
In the citing paper
“Control and prevention of flea infections rely on strategic treatments with persistent adulticidal products (e.g. imidacloprid) and/or with chemicals acting against off-host immature stages (e.g. lufenuron) along with adulticides, if an infestation already pre-exists [7,104,171-174].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
