Was told by the rep to leave 48 hours at least between, advise clients at least a week.

I normally say leave a week between them too.

Also, if the animal has a reaction to one of the products, leaving a gap between them would make it easier to identify which one was causing the problem.

Same.

Also the products won't have been tested to see how they work together. If they are applied and mix then we won't know what effect this will have

I would never advise to apply at the same time. Like has been said, there is no safety data to say they can be used together. I would leave a week between the two.

We've always recommended leaving a weeks gap inbetween applying two different spot on products just to reduce the risk of any reactions and ensure both products are able to work properly.

I think there have been cases of skin reactions with both on the skin at the same time. That's the only reason I'm aware of.

From what I understand, either there is no safety data for applying them togeather (in the case of frontline, as its a differnt product) or the active ingreadents work against eachother and not what they are meant to. I suggest 48hrs between them.
