Q&A
What is Activyl Tick Plus?
Activyl Tick Plus is a monthly spot-on flea and tick treatment that contains an innovative new ingredient called indoxacarb to kills fleas, while also containing permethrin to control ticks and reduce the risk of disease. Activyl is fully activated when a flea lands on your pet and is killed using the flea's own enzymes. This brand-new technology is called bioactivation. Activyl Tick Plus is only for dogs and kills ticks, adult fleas, flea eggs and larvae; thereby, breaking the flea's lifecycle.
For:
Dogs/Puppies (8 weeks or older)
Benefits:
- New technology for flea control
- Kills fleas, flea eggs and larvae
- Kills 4 tick species that may transmit disease
- Breaks flea's lifecycle
- Quick-drying and fragrance free
- Waterproof even after bathing
How it Works:
Activyl works to break the flea's lifecycle by killing not only adult fleas, but also flea eggs and larvae, which reduces the chances of your pet becoming reinfested by fleas. The ingredients are spread through your dog's skin and coat, and when a flea lands on your pet, it takes up the active ingredient of Activyl Tick Plus and causes the enzymes in the flea to change. Activyl Tick Plus then reaches it's full active form and the flea becomes paralyzed and unable to feed. This process is called bioactivation - the newest technology in flea control. In addition, Activyl Tick Plus is waterproof, quick-drying, and fragrance free. As a bonus, Activyl Tick Plus also contains permethrin, which provides a broad-spectrum tick protection and kills four major tick species, which reduces the risk of your dog contracting a deadly tick-borne disease.
Cautions:
Do not use Activyl Tick Plus on cats, or allow your cat to lick or groom a dog treated with Activyl Tick Plus. Do not use on dogs or puppies under 8 weeks of age or under 4 lbs. Certain medications may interact with pesticides. If signs of sensitivity occur, contact your veterinarian immediately.

How Activyl Tick Plus should be used:
Use Activyl Tick Plus on dogs or puppies 8 weeks of age or older, and over 5 lbs.

To use Activyl Tick Plus:
Hold the applicator in an upright position away from your face and snap the tip by bending it and folding it back on itself. Part the hair and place the applicator tip against the skin on the base of the skull. Applying Activyl at the base of the skull will help prevent your pet from licking the product. Squeeze the applicator firmly and apply the entire contents directly to the skin (for smaller dogs). Do not allow Activyl to run off and do not have contact with the treated area until it is completely dry. Reapply Activyl every 30 days.
For larger dogs: Start applying the contents between the shoulder blades working your way down to the tail while applying Activyl in 2-3 spots along the way. Make sure you thoroughly part the hair on each spot so the applicator touches the skin and not just the fur.
What are the side effects of Activyl Tick Plus:
Individual sensitivities while rare, may occur after using any pesticide product. Do not use on cats, since it may be fatal.
What special precautions are there:
Do not use on pregnant or lactating females. Do not use on puppies under 8 weeks of age or under 4 lbs. Do not allow children to apply product. Use the entire contents on each dog and do not split one tube between pets. Weigh your dog to ensure you are applying the right dose formulated for the weight of your pet. Consult your vet before using on debilitated, aged, or medicated pets. Do not use on pets intended for breeding, pregnant or nursing.
Causes substantial but temporary eye injury. Harmful if swallowed or absorbed through skin. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet.
If in eyes:

If on skin:
Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
If swallowed:

Does its job SO well
I have been using this on my dog for a few years now and I haven't seen a flea while I have been using it. We used to get them ALL the time, and this stuff not only keeps them off my dog, but also out of my house, which is a big deal in Oregon.
I have seen people complain about the oily spot it leaves on your dog, but I honestly care 0% about that - you just put it under their collar and put a bandana on your dog. I'll take a little dark spot on my dog in trade for dead fleas every time.

Very effective
A few years ago our 8 year old Brittany needed hip surgery and had fleas that we couldn't get rid of when he went in for surgery. The vet gave him Activyl Tick Plus and have been using ever since. Works very well on preventing fleas and getting rid of them if they already have them. Ticks aren't totally prevented by this medicine but they are greatly reduced in their occurrences on dogs that spend lots of time outside. The only negative I can really can find that it leaves shorter haired dogs like out coonhound tends to get greasy.

Love it - vet recommended
We adopted our 14 yr old beagle coon mix 4 yrs ago and our vet recommended Activyl Tick Plus. We've been using it ever since and find it to be very effective. Several of our friends use it as well and are very satisfied. Definitely would recommend it!

loved it
i had a terrible flea issue after my daughter surprised me with a 5 month old pit, covered in fleas. Needless to say, my cat became infested, as well as my home. after spending hundreds trying to remove them, of course the dog was also allergic, this product cleaned up the whole problem. house and both pets. deff. reccomend. much better for me than frontline, which really doesnt seem the same anymore.

Works great for my dog
We had a lot of struggles with fleas in our house. After paying tons of money for pest control and flea baths etc, this stuff has really saved my peace of mind. I love that it controls the eggs and everything in our house. Have not had any problems with ticks either. We use the feline version for our cat and works great for her as well. Overall, I really like it! I just put it really close to her collar so the 'spot' it leaves is less annoying.

Horrible for ticks
I used this a couple times in 2013, and it was so ineffective I found a huge tick right in the middle of the greasy spot where the product had been applied. This is a waste of money for ticks. Sadly, my vet wouldn't refund the money. Told me to write to the company.

I have two labs. One is grown and weighs about 100 lbs. The other is a 12 week old puppy. Upon treating my older dog how long should I keep him and the puppy seperate? The puppy does climb and chew on the older lab. Thanks.
I would keep them separated for 24 hours to make sure all of the Activyl is absorbed.

what is the shelf life/typical expiration of activyl? found a packet (unopened) bought at our vet last July. wondering if it is ok to use.
The Activyl Plus does not expire.

I got the wrong size dose for my dog. Is it possible to use 1 ml dose of a six ml container without hurtibg my dog.
As a licensed pharmacy, we can only recommend applying the correct tube according to your furry baby's weight. Please contact us at 1-800-738-6337 or email us at customerservice@1800petmeds.com so we can send the correct dose out to your furry baby.

My dog has been on Bravecto for 2 months and still has a month to go, but I think he has fleas. Can I treat him with actively tick plus now?
The Bravecto should work for a full 3 months so you should make sure that new fleas are not being introduced from your pets environment. It should not be necessary to try another medication until 12 weeks have passed since the bravecto dose. The Bravecto is not contraindicated to give with the Activyl tick plus, but maybe it would be good to ask your veterinarian if they think it is necessary or if there might be another factor in eliminating the fleas.

Any info about using on dogs with seizures?
I need to be careful what I use?
Please consult with your vet in regards to using a flea and tick medication due to your furry pal's medical condition.

how long after applying this form of flea treatment does it take for my dog to be flea free? she's still scratching, irritable and won't come to us.
never, thi stuff dose not work, i would use k9 advantix 2 from now on.

How soon after application can I bathe my dog?
This topical leaves a huge greasy mark on her that she then tries to rub off on the carpet, the furniture, etc. How long after applying can I give her a bath and use shampoo on her? Will the shampoo remove the medication?
My groomer told me that you should wait for at least 3 days before you bathe your dog, and most importantly, make sure that you use a soap free shampoo, otherwise you'll remove the medication.
