Regent 2000 is the best but very expensive (front line)
I have been using spectrum sc (advantage) for the past 5 yrs but fleas have pretty much become immune to it.

Gerard Denis Beary sells it.It wipes fleas out for 3 months so no more washing/dipping/or scrubbing out Kennels.Geoff i find it brilliant.10 Euro per 35 Kg dog so i imagine you could scale it down for pups and smaller dogs.
I think most Vets should stock it now.

Geoff - where did you get them ? and why didn't you just get the tablet that was suited for the size of dog you got ?

Corey,Revolution is great but read up on fleas,it pays to keep some yards empty for 6 months so the eggs die.Get rid of straw as well.
