How Soon Does Bravecto Kill Fleas?
Bravecto is a new product that packs a powerful punch in a small tablet. It works in two ways, killing active fleas in as little as 12 hours, and stopping fleas from breeding for up to three months. It also protects your pet from ticks and their eggs.
Fleas can lay their eggs anywhere, but they are usually found on your pet. In order to get rid of fleas, you need to treat the area around your pet, including the house and yard. Using the product is important because flea eggs will hatch after about a day.
When used as directed, Bravecto kills fleas and ticks within 2-12 hours. It works by binding to the fatty layer of the skin and tissues below the skin. Because it works so quickly, it is not necessary to bath your dog more than once a month.
It is important to consult with your veterinarian about the right dosage for your pet’s needs. The right dosage will be determined by the type of parasite you have. For example, if your pet has a history of Lyme disease, it may be wise to treat her with an oral tick medication rather than a topical one.
The active ingredient in Bravecto, fluralaner, inhibits the activity of glutamate and GABA-gated chloride channels in insect neurons. Fluralaner is available as a chewable tablet. Each tablet contains a different dose depending on your dog’s weight.
