How Advantix works
Advantix repels ticks. The great advantage of this is that it can repel a tick before it bites your dog. Any ticks attached prior to the application of Advantix will be killed by the product but will remain attached.
Advantix continues to be effective after a treated dog is exposed to water. This allows the dog to continue to participate in swimming and being bathed.
How can you properly administer Advantix?
Advantix for Dogs is applied as a spot-on treatment at skin level. For dogs less than 25kg, the entire contents of the tube are applied between the shoulder blades. For dogs over 25kg, the appropriate dose is divided and applied between the shoulder blades, between the hips, and at one point in between.
Advantix for dogs is available in 4 different sizes:
- Dogs less than 4kg - green pack
- Dogs 4-10kg - turquoise (aqua) pack
- Dogs 10-25kg - red pack
- Dogs over 25kg - blue pack
Dogs over 50kg require dosage with 2 pipettes from the blue pack.
Owners of growing dogs need to be aware of any changes in their dog's weight to ensure that the appropriate dose is given to protect their dog as it grows.
Dogs generally accept the administration of spot-on treatments fairly well. However, if your dog doesn't cooperate, using distraction techniques may be of benefit. Having another person pat the dog or offer a small treat at the time of application is often beneficial for such animals. If your dog likes to roll in the dirt or grass immediately after application, take the dog for a walk immediately after application to ensure it is not rubbed off. After every application of Advantix, owners should consider placing a marker on the calendar for the next due date to ensure continuity of protection and avoid forgetting a dose.
What are the precautions in using Advantix?
Advantix must not be used on cats or animals other than dogs. Do not allow cats to actively groom or have close physical contact with a recently treated dog. Ensure that Advantix does not contact the mouth or eyes of the treated dog. Advantix must not be used in puppies less than 7 weeks of age.

For fleas and ticks
I chose this over other meds for fleas and ticks. I still find this more effective than chewables. I've tried those chewables and it's not that great. This spot on treatment is a direct application. It's great for dogs!
Great
I have 2 German Shepherds and I use this for their ticks and fleas. They seldom got those parasites and everytime they do, I only trust Advantix. It's healthy for their fur,too and it immediately removes their ticks and fleas. Great product

best!
Im using advantix for my three dogs and I love it. It really treats those parasites. What I only hate about Advantix is that when you have lots of dogs of different breeds and sizes, you still have to buy different packs of it. But to sum it up,it's still a good buy and will continue using this.
works fast

It's my first purchase from PEt Shed and I bought K9 Advantix. Used to buy from my pet but I got tired of its ridiculous price in the vet so I searched for pet sites and landed of Pet Shed. So far I'm happy with my purchase. You can trust Advantix when it comes to ticks and fleas. Really. I've been using it for years and it's effective. I bought it cheaper here but so far I can't see any difference in the quality. So yeah,great Pet Shed!
