advantus Flea Treatment

We use these soft chews for our small dog (about 15 lbs), and they’ve been a game-changer for keeping fleas under control — especially during warm weather when pests are at their worst. Taste & Administration: My dog happily ate the chew right out of my hand with no hesitation. The soft texture and meaty flavor seem to be a big hit. Since he’s finicky with pills, it was such a relief that he treated this like a snack instead of a medicine. Effectiveness: Within about 24 hours of the first chew, I really noticed fewer fleas — less scratching, less itching, and overall more comfort for him. We were able to see a clear difference compared with other products we’d tried that took longer to show results. Convenience: The chew format makes it super easy to give the medication — no wrestling or hiding pills in peanut butter. The size is perfect for small dogs (4–22 lbs), and one chew a day is all it takes. I appreciated that there wasn’t a complicated dosing schedule. Dog’s Comfort & Response: He didn’t show any upset stomach or odd behavior after taking the chew. He stayed his usual happy, playful self, which was reassuring. Packaging & Quantity: The 7-count pack was just right for a week of treatment. If you live in a place with a longer flea season, you might consider having extra on hand, but this size is great for trying the product or handling a short infestation. Pros: ✔️ Tasty soft chew that my dog actually eats willingly ✔️ Works fast — noticeable improvement in itching and fleas ✔️ Easy to use — no pills or mess ✔️ Good for small dogs (4–22 lbs) Cons: ➖ You need to give it every day, so this isn’t a monthly treatment ➖ If your dog has food sensitivities, it’s worth checking the ingredient list first Who This Is Best For: Great option for small-breed dog owners who want quick, easy flea relief and struggle with pills or topical treatments. It’s especially useful if your dog is itchy or you notice signs of fleas and want a fast-acting solution. Final Thoughts: These soft chews made flea control so much simpler for us. My small dog enjoyed them, they worked quickly, and I didn’t have to fight him to take his medication every day. I’ll keep these in my rotation during peak flea season. ✔️ Highly recommend for small dogs ✔️ Easy administration ✔️ Effective relief from fleas

These flea meds work great! I dont currently have a vet for my pit but im looking for one and needed something quick acting since i seen a few fleas on him last night. These came in 1 day and i gave him one, within the hour i started seeing the fleas drop off of him. I then ran a flea comb over his fur and saw a bunch of dead ones come off. Highly recommend

Great for short term flea remover definitely not a permanent flea fix though. Lasted a couple hrs not days not greasy dog loved them very easy to use my dogs still scratched themselves though, price isn’t too bad for a quick fix comforted me knowing me and my children weren’t petting a dog doused in chemicals and medicine. Dry chewable pill feels and looks like a normal dog treat not greasy at all !

This works really well and I keep it on hand all the time. It acts fast and is super easy to give since it’s a chew, which my dogs actually take without a fight. I order it regularly to keep fleas off my fur babies. Definitely a go-to for us.

My dogs picked up fleas on a trip unfortunately. I have used these in the past and they worked good. It’s been a while but thought I would repurchase again expecting the same results and nothing. Did not help. Used as instructed. Had to make a vet visit. Would recommend just skipping the cost on this and heading to the vet.

I have bought this treatment many times and I find it really effective! There is a noticeable difference in a reduction of scratching and irritation and most of all less visibility of fleas. My dogs (one 68lbs and the other 80lbs) have had no adverse side effects to the pill. The only downside is the pill must be administered everyday so this is an expensive method of control. I only use it during extreme infestations and as a supplement to their normal flea and tick prescription. I live in a rural wooded area and have had bad years for fleas and ticks. This product does help temporarily control extreme infestations.

Kill fleas... thats why this is the brand I use... LOVE IT.. my goldendoodles tolerate this easy... very effective and they seem to have no side effects. ....no hair loss... just what I needed to rid of the fleas....

I'm giving this 4 stars because I'm not entirely sure how effective it is because I used it in conjunction with other treatments. Also unsure how well it handles serious infestations. My dog had a handful of fleas and it worked Noticed a few bugs on my 25lb corgi. Immediately gave her a bath with flea shampoo hoping that would do it. It didn't, found bugs the next day. Applied a topical flea treatment and applied some clove oil spray that is supposed to kill them. Next day, still had some fleas. My corgi has a very thick coat, and they were all on her thickest hair by her corgi tush so I think they were able to evade a lot of the topical treatments. I ordered this product as a last ditch before I go to the vet for prescription grade stuff. I don't really trust oral meds for flea prevention, especially off a marketplace like Amazon instead of my vet. But I was desperate, I have a fear of parasitic bugs. Came the next day, gave a dose to my corgi and a dose to my shepherd, who I never saw any fleas on but wanted to be safe. Both liked the taste and took it with no issues as if it was a treat. Monitored them both closely over the next few hours for any side effects, neither had any reactions. That evening I did a bug check, found one flea that was clearly expiring. I was able to pluck it off by hand. Next day, couldn't find a live bug on the corgi. There was still some flea scat that I combed out of her fur. Gave her another dose to be safe, as well as her brother. The following day I couldn't find any scat or signs of bugs. Gave her another dose. It's been 4 days now since over seen a bug. I have a few doses left, going to give her another today just to make sure any hatching eggs I missed get taken care of. I'd like to say this product was the reason we got rid of the fleas but I can't be 100% sure so I'm giving it a 4 star. I also had a very very mild infestations, like a couple bugs total. I don't know how this would work for serious infestations.
