Trust the manufacturer's leaflet.

"Laboratory studies using fipronil have not shown any teratogenic or embryotoxic effect. The safety of the product was demonstrated in breeding, pregnant and lactating bitches treated with multiple consecutive doses with up to 3 times the maximum recommended dose. FRONTLINE Spot-On Dog can be used in breeding, pregnant and lactating bitches."

Personally, I wouldn't have used it, but it's done now - so no use worrying...

I have used it on a pregnant bitch in the past as it suggests it is safe to use, and not had a problem. Frontline goes into the sebaceous cells of the skin and I imagine that is why it is OK. Sure all will be fine. These things have to go through rigid testing before they are approved including the warning literature.
