How to Apply Topical Flea Treatment for Dogs
Locate your dog
Nice work, dog parent! You have the world’s most convenient, affordable, and dependable flea and tick product — now find the dog or puppy that matches the box.
⚠️ Confirm your dog’s weight still matches the range listed on the box. (Pro Tip: Update photos of your pets anytime!)
⚠️ Use a treat as a tasty distraction.
⚠️ Don’t bathe your dog 48 hours before and after applying — the skin’s natural oils increase effectiveness.
Prepare applicator
First, remove the tube from the package. Next, hold vertically and use scissors to snip the tip.
Apply treatment
First, part your dog’s hair at their neck (base of the skull). Next, touch the applicator’s tip to the skin. Then, gently squeeze the tube to apply the entire treatment equally at 3-4 spots, ending at their tail’s base.
⚠️ Your dog should be standing for the treatment.
⚠️ Ensure the liquid doesn’t run off your dog’s side.
⚠️ Avoid contact with the treated area until dry.
Discard properly
Ensure the applicator is empty, then place it in the trash. If any treatment remains in the applicator, call your local solid waste agency for disposal instructions. Never place unused treatment down any indoor or outdoor drain.
Love on your dog
Once treatment has dried, immediately resume snuggling. We want both you and your dog to be excited for treatment time. Giving them lots of love before and after will help ensure it!
⚠️ Avoid contact with treated areas until dry.
⚠️ Don’t bathe your dog for 48 hours before and after application.
⚠️ Don’t be alarmed if your dog experiences minor itching or acts sleepy for a couple of days following treatment.
