K9 Advantix II combines imidacloprid and permethrin to repel and kill fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes. Both ingredients work on contact, attacking parasite nerve cells at different sites. Together these ingredients overwhelm the nervous system killing the parasite. Pyriproxyfen is an insect growth regulator. K9 Advantix II topical solution also repels biting flies and kills lice.
Cautions: DO NOT USE ON CATS.Cats cannot metabolize the ingredients used in this product.Cats must be separated from dogs during treatment. Do not allow your cat to come in contact with a treated dog for 24 hours.

"Love it"
I have three dogs 1 Rott/Husky mix and 2 Chihuahuas all of which had fleas really bad last summer, bad enough to where you could not even walk near them without fleas jumping one you. I started using the K9 Advantix and have not had a problem since. I love this product and would definitely recommend it to friends and family, infact I have recommended it several times already.
