Can I use Seresto collar and Advantix together?
Can you use Seresto and Advantix together? Because both products contain Imidacloprid, it is generally not recommended to use them together, but consult your vet for more information.
Do vets recommend Seresto?
Trepp is one of many vets who's recommended the Seresto collars to her patients. She told Daily Paws that she's "never" had any issues with them, and none of her veterinary colleagues have either. Tracey said something similar: Flea and tick collars "are generally regarded as safe preventatives for cats and dogs."
Why do vets not like flea collars?
Ingestion of collars can be toxic. The chemicals that are meant to be on the skin are absorbed into the body when ingested. Dogs can be particularly sensitive to some chemicals. NEVER use any flea product on your dog without the consent of your veterinarian.
Can I use topical flea treatment with Seresto?
Yes, absolutely you can use both, but since the collar lasts 8 months, remove it for a week after you reapply the Frontline Plus. Then you can safely put the collar back on.
Why does my dog still have fleas after using frontline?
A. The active ingredient in FRONTLINE (fipronil) kills fleas by affecting their nervous system, making them hyperactive before dying. These dying fleas often rise to the top of your pet's haircoat, so the presence of visible fleas after treating your pet, is a sign that the product is working.
Can you overdose a dog with flea treatment?
Common signs of toxicity from flea products containing organophosphates are diarrhea, vomiting, difficulty breathing, small pupils, muscle tremor, weakness or falling over, and drooling. Organophosphate toxicity can be rapidly fatal, depending on the ingredients and dose the pet is exposed to.
Why does my dog keep getting fleas even after treatment?
Not treating often enough Fleas go through a life cycle of egg, larvae, pupae and adult. Most flea treatments just kill adult fleas, but fleas can continue to emerge for months after you think an infestation has ended. When a newly emerged female flea finds a host, she can lay eggs within one day.
What do you do when frontline doesn't work?
If you suspect it is not controlling your pet's fleas, you may, in certain cases, be able to reapply it in as little as two weeks and try again. Speak to your veterinarian about this first if your flea medicine is not working. One Frontline alternative is to switch to another topical product.
What happens if you apply Frontline too soon?
What is this? Even if you apply Frontline as directed, you may still see fleas in your pet's fur or on your pet's skin after treatment. If you see them surface directly after application, this could simply be because fleas travel to the coat's surface as they die.
