ActivyleVantagem are effective spot-on flea treatments available for both dogs and cats. So how do they work?

Topical treatments for fleas work in a different way to tablets or chewables. Instead of being absorbed into the pet’s bloodstream, they remain on the skin. Fleas are killed on contact, so they don’t need to bite your pet before being eliminated.

O Activyl e o Advantage controlam as infestações por pulgas, fornecendo proteção de um mês contra as pulgas adultas, matando-as antes que possam pôr ovos. O Activyl fornece uma camada extra de proteção matando o ovo e a larva da pulga.

Treatment with Advantage also helps to control infestations of lice (Trichodectescanis, Linognathussetosus) on dogs.

Both Activyl and Advantage can be used on dogs and cats as young as 8 weeks of age, with the exact product required based on your pet’s body weight. Activyl is not suitable for use on pregnant or nursing animals.
