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.

I have used various products trying to deal with fleas in the southeastern US... from the "chemicals" the dogs ingest to the topical ones... and the natural remedies too... I still use a natural oil based spray but I found I needed more so after LOTS of trial and error I landed on this product. My dogs have not had bad side affects with this, which is the main reason the other products did not work. It occurred to me the treatment was worse than the problem! So far this is the best one I have found.
The Best
I've tried them all and this one does the best to keep all fleas and ticks from attacking our dog. Love it!
Advantix
I have been ordering from Pet Shed for many years. They have accurate, fast and friendly service. I refer them to all of my friends. Advantix works much better than the other options that Pet Shed offers. I saw the difference immediately. It is a wonderful product with no side effects and best of all, IT WORKS! That you Advantix and Pet Shed.
Bye Bye Ticks!
We live in a tick hot zone and from spring to late fall, we have more than our share. K9 Advantix has been my best choice, as it not only kills the nasty bugs, but repels them. It has worked fantastically for my Labrador, and gives me peace of mind that fewer live ticks make it into the house. I've had Lyme disease twice, and it's no fun. So K9 protects my dog and me! I feel better knowing that when he runs through the woods like the carefree pup he is, he has an invisible shield protecting him.
