Elanco K9 Advantix II Topical Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs

You should always have ways to protect furry friends from ticks, fleas and other pests. When it's time, make sure to have the Elanco K9 Advantix II Topical Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs on hand. With a waterproof formula, this dog flea and tick solution offers long-lasting protection against ticks, fleas, chewing lice and biting flies, even after swimming or bathing. This helps to decrease their risk of developing diseases. Not only that, but the flea and tick solution for dogs also eliminates fleas at all their life stages, ensuring pets won't become impacted by reinfestations.How it Works

When you apply K9 Advantage to your pet, it spreads at the hair root level over the skin's surface, assisted by the movement of the body, which provides all-over coverage. This revolutionary chemistry impairs the flea's nervous system, which kills the flea. Since reinfestation is likely to come from outdoors or the pet's environment, those new fleas will also be killed within 2 hours. K9 Advantage protects your pet from further infestation of fleas for up to one month.
