As a model of double resonant situations, we study fast periodic perturbations of a double pendulum. The associated dynamical system presents periodic orbits whose invariant manifolds split under the perturbation. The main purpose of this paper is to analytically show that this splitting is given, in first order, by the Melnikov function and give a lower bound for such splitting in terms of the perturbative parameter. Many results used in "simple pendulum cases" have to be adapted in order to give a description of the intricate dynamics exhibited by these periodic perturbations.
