Advantage: Flea Treatment for Dogs
Advantage is the fastest relief from fleas for dogs and not only kills fleas fast, it acts on multiple flea stages to rid infestations too.
Advantage is a fast way to a flea-free home. An easy-to-use spot-on, Advantage is applied monthly. Its super ingredient stops fleas biting within 3 to 5 minutes and kills both adult fleas and larvae within 20 minutes. Since Advantage works on contact so fleas don’t need to bite, dogs suffer fewer painful flea bites, reducing outbreaks of Flea Allergy Dermatitis. Advantage is the only flea product you need as it breaks the flea lifecycle. Advantage kills fleas in your dog’s surroundings – your home - and provides protection for your dog when it comes into contact with other pets that have fleas. Safe for puppies of any age, Advantage provides month long protection, controls lice and is water-resistant when combined with a soap-free shampoo.
Key Benefits
•Rapid onset – stop fleas biting within five minutes of application
•Quick – knockout adult fleas within an hour of application on your dogs
•Easy to use – simple spot-on treatment
•Safe for use on pregnant and lactating dogs
•Stops feeding – active ingredient works on contact to prevent fleas from biting
•Water resistant
Directions for Use
Hold the spot-on tube upright away from you and pull the cap off. Reverse the cap and push cap back on tube. Twist cap to break seal, then remove cap from tube. For dogs less than 25 kilograms, part the fur between your dog’s shoulder blades, then place the tip of the tube on the skin and squeeze the tube firmly twice to apply the solution directly on the skin. If your dog is larger than 25 kilograms, you can apply the flea treatment by dividing the dose between the shoulder blades, on the midline of the back between the hips, and at one point in between. For ease of application, your dog should be standing during treatment.
Avoid applying the treatment near the eyes or mouth area as this may cause irritation, and try not to use the spot-on if your pet is wet. If washing an animal during the use of this product, use a soap-free shampoo so it doesn’t affect the treatment. Record treatment date and repeat monthly as required.
Cautions
Advantage spot-on flea treatment for dogs is for external use on dogs and puppies from any age after weaning.
Possible Side Effects
Occasionally, hair loss may occur at the application site. This is usually a single occurrence and hair will grow back.
