How Fast Does Advantage II Kill Fleas?
WouterAdvantage(r) II for cats is an effective and convenient flea control for cats. It comes in different sizes and is suitable for cats of all ages, weights and coat types. It can be applied directly to the base of the cat’s skull and skin. The active ingredient, imidacloprid, works on fleas from larvae to adults. It kills them quickly and reduces the chances of re-infestation.
Advantage II should be applied to the skin of the animal as directed by the manufacturer. A thin layer should be applied to the skin and should cover the area from shoulder blades to the base of the tail. In severe infestations, Advantage II may need to be applied more frequently.
Both Advantage II contain pyriproxyfen. Pyriproxyfen kills flea eggs and larvae. It also protects against heartworm, hookworm, and ear mites. The products should not be applied directly to the pet’s eyes or mouth. The risks of using Advantage II are slightly higher than those of Advantage, but they are not enough to cause concern.
Advantage is an excellent flea control treatment for pets. However, it must be used together with other products to achieve the best results. Flea control products should be used in conjunction with Advantage for cats. If you buy Advantage alone, you’re likely to miss several fleas. However, Advantage is also effective with other flea control products, such as shampoo.
