Question from
Tammy Otis
I have given my cat Adams spot-on and It has not gotten rid of any fleas.I put It on him May 26.My question is, how long do I need to wait to put advantage on him
Our Vet Says:
Dear Tammy,
Because the active ingredients of the two products do not appertain
to the same chemical group you can use Advantage after two weeks from the Adams
treatment. Please wash the cat before the Advantage treatment and allow two days
to pass from the bath to the application of the flea product. Also please read
the manufacturer’s instructions for application. It is very important that the
content of the pipette is placed directly on the skin. Also you need to pay
attention to two more aspects:
- Treatment of the
environment; 95% of the flea population is found in the pet’s close environment
so you need to use an insecticidal product in your house as well.
- Fleas are hosts for
worms so you need to use a deworming product as well; in adult cats worming
treatments should be done every three months.
