Product Information

Full details

Advocate Spot On Solution is designed for small dog owners seeking a comprehensive, once-a-month preventative treatment against a wide range of common parasites. It is an ideal choice for protecting dogs up to 4kg from fleas, mites, and various intestinal, heart, and lung worms. While it provides excellent broad-spectrum protection, it is important to remember that this is a Prescription Only Medication (POM-V) and must be obtained through your veterinarian following a professional assessment of your dog's specific health needs.

FAQs

Is Advocate a prescription medication?

Yes, Advocate is a Prescription Only Medication (POM-V) and must be issued by a veterinarian.

How often should I apply Advocate?

Advocate should be applied once every month for continuous protection.

Can I use this on my cat?

No, this specific product is formulated for dogs. Always use species-specific medication as prescribed by your vet.

Does this cover ticks?

Advocate is primarily focused on fleas, mites, and internal worms; check with your veterinarian if you live in an area with a high tick burden.

What should I do if I miss a month?

Apply the dose as soon as you remember, then return to your regular monthly schedule.

Can I use it on puppies?

Consult your veterinarian regarding the safe age and weight at which your specific puppy can begin receiving Advocate.

Troubleshooting

Dog tries to lick the application site

Apply the product high enough on the neck between the shoulder blades so the dog cannot reach it with their mouth.

Visible fleas remain after application

Advocate kills fleas on contact; however, pupae in the environment may continue to emerge for a period. Maintain consistent monthly treatment to break the cycle.

The dog gets wet shortly after application

Try to keep the dog dry for at least 24 hours after application to ensure full absorption into the skin's lipid layer.

  • Easy-to-apply monthly topical solution
  • Highly effective at preventing flea-related skin conditions
  • Reduces the risk of severe worm infections

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before using Advocate, ensure your dog meets the weight requirement of up to 4kg. To apply, part the hair between the shoulder blades until the skin is visible, then squeeze the entire contents of the pipette directly onto the skin. Do not apply to broken skin or allow the dog to rub the area until it has dried. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and keep it out of reach of children and other pets. Always wash your hands thoroughly after application and avoid touching the treatment site until it is dry.
