Ajudando você a decidir qual tratamento contra pulgas e carrapatos é melhor para seus cães e gatos

Fleas and ticks are probably the most common parasites associated with dogs and cats, but the issues they cause should not be underestimated. Fleas can be particularly hard to eradicate due to their fast breeding cycle – an adult flea can lay up to 50 eggs a day. Fleas cause itching and irritation which can distress your pet, with some developing flea allergy dermatitis.

Ticks may not be as prevalent, but can carry dangerous and deadly diseases including Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, St. Louis encephalitis, Lyme disease, tick paralysis and more.

There are plenty of flea and tick treatment options available, all with their pros and cons. It is important that you consider the needs of your pet and household before selecting the right treatment. For example: topical or spot on treatment could be good for a pet that will not take medication, but oral treatments might be more suitable for a multi-pet household or where fast acting treatment is required. The stage of flea or tick infestation also determines whether you will need a knock down treatment or a preventative one.
