K9 Advantix is a topical monthly spot-on treatment that protects dogs against fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, sand flies, stable flies, chewing lice, and biting insects. The topical treatment kills fleas and ticks just by contact. The single treatment controls various external parasites and prevents secondary diseases transmitted due to fleas and ticks. Advantix remains effective for one full month and is safe to use for dogs and puppies over 7 weeks of age.
Imidacloprid and Permethrin are the active ingredients present in K9 Advantix. The combined effect of the ingredients helps in eliminating fleas and ticks. The ingredients attack their nervous system and blocks sodium channels responsible for nerve impulses. This leads to hyper-excitation, paralysis, and death. Additionally, due to the repelling action called the ‘ hot foot’ activity, the topical treatment repels ticks and stops them from sticking on the treated dogs.
I have been using this product since my doggie was a puppy and I have never seen fleas on my pooch....Not even any side effects of the treatment.
This is our go-to topical for keeping our Bud flea-free.
Last month I got this product and was not sure whether it will work on my two labs or not. But, fortunately, they were at ease with this solution and the number of fleas reduced. Though, I find some fleas on them but hope that giving treatment this month will surely remove all fleas. Let's see, till now its working fine.
