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.

kipi is saved
MY japanese spitz dog, kipi was saved from ticks and fleas. He used to have a lot since Spring begun. But then K9 Advantix saved him. No more itchiness and no more trouble.
treats it all
Kills all ticks and fleas. Not only that, it also protects my dogs from getting bit by mosquitoes carrying heartworms. It's a great help for pet owners like me. K9 Advantix solves them all. And Pet Shed offers it at a lower price. So yeah it's more affordable and it's more worthy to buy in here.
Try it
Negative comments about K9 advantix all over the net. But they're all wrong. This is what I use for my dogs and I don't see anything wrong with my dog. No side effects. Really treats fleas and ticks. Try it yourself.
Advantix forever
Ever since I had a dog I've been using Advantix. This keeps my dog away from fleas and ticks. And I'll be using this as long as I have a dog. It's great!
Better than tablets
I find K9 advantix more effective than chewables. I should now because I was able to try them both.
SWITCH TO ADVANTIX
some products just stop working after a long time and i don't know why. so i need to try other products that will keep fleas and ticks away from my dogs. i came up with this product and it worked! now i will stay with advantix and use it until it will stop being effective on my dogs, if that will happen.
using it for years
My husband and I got a pack of dogs. And we use Advantix to protect our dogs from fleas and ticks. Though the only thing I hate about this is that we need to separate the treated dog to others after application. But overall, we love this product.
5 stars
I love how fast K9 Advantix works. After treatment you can really notice that ticks and fleas were treated and were becoming less until they're all gone.
reliable tick and flea med
it's tick and flea season again and i need to treat my dogs again. I bought Advantix again from Pet Shed. And just like what it used to fleas and ticks were gone after I use Advantix. Will always come back to Pet Shed for this.
