FrontlineQ: Would you please tell me the difference between frontline spray and frontline top spot do they both work the same i have 4 dogs and would like to know which one to buy A: The topspot is a convenient and simple way to apply frontline protection. the spray is a little more complicated and involves the use of rubber gloves and working the product into the animal's coat. the spray is also more useful when there is a flea infestation you are trying to destroy.
