Default Front line / mite spray suppliers?

I usually get my Frontline spray to clean my tanks out with from the vets but wondered if i could buy it elsewhere for cheaper or a substitute that works just as well?
Cheers
Nick

You can buy at Hyperdrug Equine Pharmacy - Hyperdrug, Home of the Equine Pharmacy, Canine Chemists and Pigeon Pharmacy, pet medicines, wormers, and flea treatments but you still need a prescription from the vet.
The vet can't charge you for the prescription though.

So you do need a prescription. Are there any on the market that work just as well but don't need a prescription for?

Provent-a-mite. Can't buy it in this country except through a couple of people that post on here. Try ebay, but there is a risk of it getting confiscated when it comes into this country.

Default Over the counter alternative

There are a few over-the-counter alternatives, best known is made by Beaphar and should be available in any shop selling reptiles.

We use something called Magic Dragon to treat our viv's in the shop.... No idea who makes it though, but should come up on a google search?
