Highlighted Reviews

β€” Elizabeth

"This product not only prevents biting by ectoparasites (fleas, ticks, mosquitoes), it also KILLS the bug, meaning those bugs cannot bite another animal or person. Because it is applied to the outside of the pet, it doesn’t poison the pet from the inside as the oral paraciticides do. All my family ..."

β€” Linda

"this and all the topicals we've have tried as of late simply do not work for more than 2 weeks ...finally had to get an rx for nexgard from the vet ."

Bottom Line

This is a good flea and tick treatment, although the leakiness and frequent reapplication requirement give buyers pause. If you are ready to reapply frequently, it may work well for you.
