Advantage for dogs

How does it work?

The active ingredient in Advantage flea treatment for dogs is able to kill fleas on contact, so fleas don’t have to bite your pet to be killed.

Advantage FAQs

How do dogs get fleas?

Fleas can invite themselves into your home and onto your dog in several ways:

If you come in contact with fleas, these pesky parasites can hitch a ride on you or your clothing and enter your home.
Other pets your dog comes in contact with can pass fleas to your dog.
Wild animals such as rabbits and possums can transport fleas into your garden, and your dog may pick them up there.
Don’t forget to think about all of your pets you might not have seen the cat scratching, but if they are not treated they could bring fleas into your home too.

What is the difference between Advantage and oral flea products?

Advantage flea treatment for dogs is a spot-on treatment you apply to your pet’s skin. It is able to kill fleas on contact no biting required.1 Oral flea products are active in the bloodstream, and fleas must attach and feed to be killed.

How often should I use Advantage?

It is recommended that you apply Advantage to your dog once a month all year round.

How long does Advantage last?

A single application lasts for a month.

When can I start using Advantage on my puppy?

You can use Advantage on your puppy from birth. However, treatment of the mother prior to weaning protects the litter while in contact so it is not usually necessary to treat unweaned puppies. Treat the mother until weaning and the individual puppies afterwards.

What is the expiration date for Advantage for dogs?

When can I bathe my dog after applying Advantage?

If you need to bathe your dog between applications, always use a soap-free shampoo. It’s best to wash your dog, wait until they are fully dry and then apply Advantage. For optimal skin health in well dogs, don’t bathe your dog more frequently than fortnightly.

How long do I need to wait after bathing my pet before I apply Advantage?

Wait until your dog is fully dry before applying Advantage.

Can I allow my pet to swim when using Advantage?

The active ingredient in Advantage sits in the waterproof layer of your dog’s skin, and the product remains effective if your dog becomes wet on occasion (for example after exposure to heavy rain or swimming).

Can I use Advantage if my dog is on medication?

Speak to your vet before using Advantage in conjunction with any other medication.

Can I use Advantage on a pregnant or lactating bitch?

Yes, Advantage is registered for use during pregnancy and lactation.

My dog spends most of its time indoors. Should I still use Advantage?

Even indoor pets can get fleas they can be carried into the home on clothing or on other pets that visit the house, so it’s still important to protect your dog with a flea product like Advantage.

I have only seen fleas on one of my pets. Is it sufficient to only treat the infested pet?

No, it is important to treat all your animals with a suitable product. If one pet has fleas, other pets in the house will soon be infested too. Also, these untreated pets will provide a blood meal to the fleas and the fleas will not be killed, so the infestation will continue.

Can I split tubes of Advantage between my dogs?

No, you should use the product only as directed. If you’re unsure of any directions for the application of Advantage for dogs, contact your vet.

Weigh your dog before starting the treatment.
Buy Advantage package according to dog weight.
Allow your pet to stand in a comfortable position.
Break open seal of the pipette.
Part fur making skin visible at a spot at the back of the neck.

Q: How does Advantage flea treatment work

Posted On Nov 07, 2024 | Post Your Answer

A: Advantage for dogs works by disrupting the nervous system of fleas, causing paralysis and death. After administration, the active ingredient imidacloprid is absorbed through the skin and distributed throughout the dog's body. As soon as fleas bite the dog, ingest the active ingredient and die.
