Advantage (imidacloprid) is another method of flea control offered by Luv My Pet, Inc. This product does kill fleas, and has shown larvicidal activity in preliminary studies. Advantage kills 98-100% of adult fleas within 24 hours after application.

Advantage is a liquid that is applied to the pet’s skin, a topical medication. It is not absorbed into the bloodstream. Once applied to the skin, Advantage spreads over the whole body surface of the pet, so that a flea is affected no matter where it contacts the animal. Advantage is stored in the hair follicles and sebaceous glands in the skin, and continually secreted over the next 30 days. Therefore, this medication is recommended for once a month application.

Advantage works by impairing the flea’s nervous system, leading to death on contact. This avoids the fleabites, and therefore, this is the flea control choice for allergic animals.

Advantage is also completely safe for puppies and kittens and can be applied as early as 8 weeks of age. Once applied, the animal should not be bathed for 4 days. Recent studies showed that dogs repeatedly immersed in water weekly still experienced nearly 90% efficacy. After shampooing, Advantage-treated dogs still showed 92% efficacy.

Advantage is also dispensed depending on the weight of the animal. Again, the weight of each pet receiving Advantage should be documented on the Vaccination Certificate, and the veterinarian must approve the animal to receive flea control.

This is a product used to kill and prevent infestation with both fleas and ticks. The chemical name of the product is Fipronil. This is used safely in both dogs and cats, and is sold by weight of the animal.

Fipronil collects in the oils of the skin and hair follicles and continues to be released over a period of time resulting in long residual activity. The drug spreads over the body once applied, within 24 hours by a mechanism called translocation. This product kills fleas and ticks (this will link to fleas and ticks page) by interfering with their nervous system.

CERTIFECT, an advanced topical solution that provides proven flea protection with added tick-killing power. CERTIFECT kills ticks in 18 hours, whereas the current standard for tick-killing efficacy is 24-48 hours. It is also the only topical product that detaches ticks. Just like FRONTLINE Plus, CERTIFECT destroys the flea life cycle, giving dog owners, with the help of their veterinarians, a new solution in the fight against these pests.
