Highlighted Reviews
"Serestro collars did not work but this product did! I haven’t seen a flea since using this product one time on my 4 dogs. I’ve had fleas become resistant to everything else I have used over the years. Onguard has saved the day!"
"Usually buy frontline or whatever from costco, but i bought these onguard drops because they're cheaper. "

This product might be worth trying, especially if other treatments have failed, but be prepared for potential failure since it reliably works in some cases while failing in others.
