Highlighted Reviews

— Megan

"This shampoo provides a good cleaning with a nice scent and a coat that looks great."

— Marissa

"We used this weekly in addition to a flea collar and still have fleas. Now the cat has them too. It will kill live fleas during the treatment process but doesn’t kill the eggs."

Bottom Line

It's a decent flea control shampoo but not highly recommended if looking for something perfect. It can lead to cats getting fleas etc.
