How does it work?
A Bayer product, Advantage for Dogs is an efficient flea prevention and control treatment for all breeds of dogs. This scientific formulation with Imidacloprid as the active ingredient kills adult fleas. With a continuous action for four consecutive weeks, Advantage eradicates fleas found in the environment.
The waterproof treatment remains effective even after the pet gets wet. Safe for all breeds of dogs, the treatment protects your dog from several flea and lice borne diseases. It is also an ideal treatment for reducing Flea Allergy Dermatitis(FAD) incidences.
