advantus Flea Treatment

I gave this flea treatment for dogs 4 stars because it works well overall. It helped reduce the fleas noticeably, and my dog seemed much more comfortable after using it. It’s easy to apply and does what it’s supposed to do. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because it took a little longer than expected to see full results. Still, it’s a good option and worth trying.

This is a great product. However, it can be given everyday if you notice fleas on your pet, and I think most people would want the monthly flea protection. However, it does work very good. Kills all the fleas on the dog, but if they get reinvested the next day from being outside or whatever you can give another chew. I guess you'd call it "daily: fleas protection, and I can see how some people would like the product, its just not for me...but giving 5 stars because it works great.

I'm giving this 4 stars because I'm not entirely sure how effective it is because I used it in conjunction with other treatments. Also unsure how well it handles serious infestations. My dog had a handful of fleas and it worked Noticed a few bugs on my 25lb corgi. Immediately gave her a bath with flea shampoo hoping that would do it. It didn't, found bugs the next day. Applied a topical flea treatment and applied some clove oil spray that is supposed to kill them. Next day, still had some fleas. My corgi has a very thick coat, and they were all on her thickest hair by her corgi tush so I think they were able to evade a lot of the topical treatments. I ordered this product as a last ditch before I go to the vet for prescription grade stuff. I don't really trust oral meds for flea prevention, especially off a marketplace like Amazon instead of my vet. But I was desperate, I have a fear of parasitic bugs. Came the next day, gave a dose to my corgi and a dose to my shepherd, who I never saw any fleas on but wanted to be safe. Both liked the taste and took it with no issues as if it was a treat. Monitored them both closely over the next few hours for any side effects, neither had any reactions. That evening I did a bug check, found one flea that was clearly expiring. I was able to pluck it off by hand. Next day, couldn't find a live bug on the corgi. There was still some flea scat that I combed out of her fur. Gave her another dose to be safe, as well as her brother. The following day I couldn't find any scat or signs of bugs. Gave her another dose. It's been 4 days now since over seen a bug. I have a few doses left, going to give her another today just to make sure any hatching eggs I missed get taken care of. I'd like to say this product was the reason we got rid of the fleas but I can't be 100% sure so I'm giving it a 4 star. I also had a very very mild infestations, like a couple bugs total. I don't know how this would work for serious infestations.

Works great, always a good way to clear an infested pup, however please note, this is not a monthly prescription treatment pill, but a daily otc, if I give my pup this daily and then also a flea bath infestations are gone, and pup is cleared up. However the med is only effective for the time they take it daily, if dog is in a flea area fleas will come back fast. This is not for monthly preventative treatment.

No side effect, although, this product didn't really work as expected. I would not buy again.

Very effective product. I was a little nervous about trying it, but we had great results. My pup pup stopped scratching and the fleas went away. Yeah I will be placing it on autoship.

These work really fast. The only otc that actually works

Works okay. Not as well as the topical treatments that cost the exact same for a monthly treatment.
