Who is it for?
Advantage II is designed for adult dogs whose owners prefer a monthly topical over a daily oral. With four weight-based variants, there's a dose for toy breeds under 4.5 kg through to extra-large dogs.
Choose from Small Dog, Medium Dog, Large Dog, or X-Large Dog to match your dog's current weight.
If you'd rather an oral option, or you're treating a kitten or a dog that also needs tick coverage, you may also like Advantix II - Flea & Tick Medicine, the kitten formula Advantage II - Flea & Tick Medicine, or Capstar - Fast Acting Oral Flea Treatment.
Feeding & use
Part the fur between the shoulder blades down to the skin, then empty the full tube directly onto the skin in one spot. Keep your dog dry for the first 24 hours so the product can spread through the skin's natural oils.
Apply once every 30 days, always choosing the tube that matches your dog's current weight. Follow the directions printed on the package.
