Advantage Spot On Flea Treatment is an effective solution for the treatment and prevention of flea...Advantage Spot On Flea Treatment is an effective solution for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations. Fleas are killed through contact, so they do not need to bite your dog to be eliminated. Advantage also kills flea larvae in the home wherever the treated dog goes. Fleas can cause itching, irritation, and carry diseases. If your dog swallows a flea while grooming, they could get tapeworm. Only 5% of fleas live on your pet, while 95% of their lifecycle occurs in carpets and bedding. If you find fleas on your dog, you may need to treat your home as well. Advantage flea treatment for dogs works quickly, killing fleas in 24 hours and protecting dogs for up to 4 weeks. Once applied, Advantage spreads across your dog's skin and coat without being absorbed into the bloodstream, meaning fleas do not need to bite to be eliminated. Advantage also treats biting lice. How to Use: Advantage is a spot-on formulation; the contents of the pipette are applied directly to the skin between the shoulder blades. Instructions: Use the Advantage product suitable for your pet's weight. Hold the tube upright and twist and pull the cap to remove it. Use the reversed cap to twist and remove the seal from the tube. For dogs weighing between 10kg to 25kg: Apply the spot-on treatment to the skin between the shoulder blades by parting the fur. Squeeze firmly to empty the contents of the tube. Administration Guide: For dogs 10kg to less than 25kg, use 1 pipette of Advantage Spot-On Flea Treatment for Dogs 10kg to 25kg (250mg).
