Preventative Flea, Tick & Mosquito Topical Treatment for Medium Dogs (11-20 pounds), 6 Count, Packaging May Vary

the product is non-greasy, dries quickly, and if I keep my dogs out of the river for 48 hrs after application, it remains extremely effective against ticks for a minimum of a month, and ticks are my big concern due to all the bacterial organisms they carry (Lyme, Anaplas, Ehrlichiosis, etc) - permethrin is the key to killing ticks, and this product offers that - here in northern Wisconsin ticks are a huge problem, and I am always very happy to see dead ticks on the couch or floor that have fallen off the dogs, typically not even slightly engorged - the Border Collies are very difficult to find deer ticks on due to their coats so it means a lot to me to know, with confidence, a tick preventative product is working - a huge pro for me is this product does not get absorbed systemically like some topical, and all oral, products do - I don't want to be giving my dogs a ticket to cancer with systemic treatments - that is a deal-breaker for me - other pros, tho not deal-breakers, are the product dries quickly and is not greasy, has a mild odor but not terribly offensive until it dries, seems pretty "waterproof" (i.e. remains effective even with daily swims as long as the dogs do not swim for 48 hours after application), and finally, this preventative treatment is affordable - it is not, however, a repellent of mosquitoes as it claims to be, but mosquitoes are horrendous this year - overall, an affordable five-star product IMO that keeps my dogs safe -

Suddenly this year I noticed a week after putting vectra3d on one of my dogs he was getting ticks all over. I took one off his lip, head and lower abdomen that now looks like a bullseye and I know dogs don't usually get them but vet saw the pic and said yup let's start doxy immediately. I put the Amazon flea and tick on 2 weeks after the vectra and I'd actually used it while waiting for the vectra 3d to be delivered and both times I've used. It NOT 1 TICK ON EITHER DOG. And my newly adopted terrier mix gets his head deep into tick infested areas and runs through brush where he'd always going to be highly exposed to them so it's incredibly important to have a flea and tick product that works and this has worked better than any other product I've tried in the 20 years I've had dogs of my own.

Update: Doesn't have the same efficacy as the name brand. (10 days to scratching again). You can't double up or increase the dosage to make up for it. But it will probably work if your pet never goes outside, or if you're in a state that doesn't have superfleas. Western WA does have superfleas, if you are wondering. --------- I used to buy the name brand Advantage ii for 20 years for my cat (she lved almost forever), and it always works like a charm. Everytime I tried anything else, it wouldn't work. (We have created superfleas in the PNW). Now I have a dog and decided to get this generic that even has a 3rd ingredient for ticks (that can't be used for cats). I had high hopes and usually love everything from Amazon Basics. But we are 10 days in age application and my poor dog is scratching a little again. No signs of flea dirt yet. Side Note: I used ZoGuard generic for Frontline on her first, and it didn't work *at all*. She had flea dirt pileup again within 4 days, and was miserable with scratching.

This product is affordable. I use it on both of my schnauzers. They don't go in the woods or through high grass. I have never seen a flea or ticks since I have used this product.

This didn't even last a full week. One of my dogs got a rash. The fleas are back and they're both itchy. So now I have to purchase another set of the more expensive one. You really do get what you pay for unfortunately. 😩

Seems to be working. I apply once a month and haven’t noticed any fleas or ticks.

Bought this item for my 3 lapdogs. All of them have had topical treatment and no reaction. Tried this brand and one of my 3 dogs had a bad reaction. It was like she was high. She was lethargic. Had to be carried to use the restroom. To eat. To drink. She was able to stand but ah wouldn’t walk. And then all of a sudden she would run to our bed. Watched her all night because I was scared she would not wake up. I gave her milk and olive oil to push the flea poison out. We ended up giving her a bath. By the evening she was ok again. Not trying this again. My very playful and aware dog was like a zombie.

This is a great price and great protection. Once a tick bit my dog and died. No mosquitoes. No fleas. Very effective. And last the whole month.
