Capstar Flea Control Tablets for Dogs 25 lb. and Up, 6 ct.

A: Howdy neighbor! This specific oral flea product is a fast-acting treatment that can be administered as often as once a day if re-infestation occurs, rather than a monthly preventative. Because this package is formulated exclusively for large dogs weighing 25.1 to 125 pounds, it is critical for your pet's safety that you do not use it on a 23-pound dog. Please consult your veterinarian and switch to the proper dosage size labeled for small dogs weighing 2 to 25 pounds to ensure correct and safe treatment.

A: Yes, Capstar can generally be used with a flea collar since they work differently. Capstar provides fast killing of adult fleas, while flea collars are used for longer term prevention. Always follow label directions and consult a veterinarian if you have concerns about combining treatments.

A: A single dose of this treatment is one tablet. For dogs weighing between 25.1 and 125 pounds, you should administer one 57 mg tablet. If your pet becomes re-infested, you can safely give another dose as often as once per day.

A: A single dose of this treatment is active for 24 to 48 hours. It is designed to be fast-acting, killing 90% of adult fleas within 4 hours. If your pet becomes re-infested, you can safely administer another dose as often as once per day.

A: For dogs weighing 25.1 to 125 pounds, the dosage is one 57 mg tablet.
