Activyl flea control most dogs will pick up fleas often in their lifetimes.
Activyl contains a lethal active ingredient indoxacarb which works by using a method called bioactivation in which indoxacarb is activated using the flea s own enzymes.
It s waterproof which is great for my dog that loves to swim.
No greasy spot from monthly topicals or remembering to apply.
Activyl has worked well for us for many years after replacing frontline which stopped working.
My dog did not like it.
Activyl is much safer for my dogs since it is not a pill with awful side effects.
I ve been using activyl now for my pets because it was able to be purchased at our local shelter.
Flea eggs and larvae are more of a problem than adult fleas.
Activyl is a new spot on flea treatment that works through bioactivation.
This did absolutely nothing for either dogs.
Our local animal control uses activyl for flea control.
Also available is activyl protector band for dogs deltamethrin a long lasting flea and tick collar that protects your dog for up to 6 months.
I had used activyl topical flea and tick treatment for years on my dog.
When a flea attacks your pet it absorbs the active ingredient which causes the enzymes within the flea s gut to change.
It kills not only adult fleas but also flea eggs and larvae thereby breaking the flea lifecycle.
For dogs only use activyl protector band to protect against fleas and ticks for up to 6 months for heartworm protection try ivermectin pyrantel generic to heartgard plus.
Proper sanitary measures can reduce the prevalence of flea infestation but these annoying pests manage to recur in spite of precautions.

My only complaint is it seems to work very well for only about 3 weeks so far not really a full 30 days and unlike advantage doesn t seem to quite kill off the flea population in the house.
I however did not find any ticks.
I have used the topical activyl for several years and have always been pleased.
If you were a dog you d want a treatment that was effective at killing fleas yet gentle.
Doesn t have a strong odor but he seemed unsettled with the scent.
Comfortis pills made my dogs vomit.
Tried the activyl protector collar.
But it is unpleasant.
Fleas are a perennial problem in pets.
