"We used it for quite a few years. It’s quite effective. We love that this product uses natural ingredients and is not harmful to either our dog or the furniture and flooring he lays on. The capsule was easy enough to apply in a line down his back with one person holding his head and the other part..."

β€” Stephanie

"I'm really trying to find a natural flea and tick protection for my fur babies because one of my cats died many years ago from a harsh chemical flea treatment. Unfortunately this stuff is not the answer! It provided no relief to my dog and she continued to scratch even worse than before!"

Bottom Line
