Vectra 3D Topical Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs

Protect your dog from parasites with Vectra 3D Topical Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs, a topical solution for repelling a variety of insects. This dog flea and tick solution comes with efficient active ingredients that work to repel and eliminate ticks, lice, fleas, biting flies, sand flies, mites and mosquitoes. It also eliminates fleas in all their lifecycle stages, including larvae and eggs, preventing reinfestation. The quick-drying, non-greasy formula of this flea and tick solution for dogs allows for convenient, mess-free application.How it Works

Vectra 3D contains active ingredients of Permethrin, Pyriproxyfen, and Dinotefuran, which kill and repel mites (except for mange mites), sand flies, biting flies, lice, mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. It uses a "hot foot" reaction to repel parasites as they come into contact with your dog's skin or coat and subsequently with Vectra 3D. The pests will then retreat back up the shaft of the hair without biting, ultimately dying. Mosquitoes detect the active ingredients in this product and avoid dogs, choosing not to even land on them 80% of the time.
