Expert Tips523In case of heavy flea infestation, repeat the treatment earlier than 4 weeks. To maintain 8 months duration, do not bathe your pet more than once a month.
What Veterinarian Says524The non-odor formulation is an advantage to other products. It kills fleas and larvae swiftly without any side-effects. This also eliminates chances of flea allergy dermatitis. Treating many dogs and puppies with Advantage, I found that it is highly reliable as provides quick relief from the signs of skin conditions caused due to flea bites. Except the fact that it does not kill ticks, Advantage works best providing full flea protection for one month. The collar is widely used in areas where tick infestation heavy. We have come across many successful cases where Seresto collar has more than 8 months effectiveness when used as directed by manufacturer. The positive about this product is - it not only kills fleas and ticks but also repels fleas and ticks. Many dogs seem happy due to no scratching and itching.
