3 Step Solution for Your Dog
Flea bites are not only uncomfortable for your dog; they can also cause
anemia, dermatitis and tapeworms. If your pet has fleas, you must administer
treatment. Ticks can cause inflammation, infections or Lyme disease.

Try our highly effective 3 Step Solution to rid your pet of these unwanted
visitors and protect your dog's precious coat and skin. Effective control
requires pest control products for all three of these elements.

Provide immediate relief for your dog by eliminating the source of the problem. Use specially formulated dog flea and tick control shampoos, dips, sprays and powders to rid your dog of fleas instantly.
  • Shampoos clean off flea dirt and quickly get rid of biting adult fleas.
  • Dips and Sprays eliminate adult fleas and provide residual control.
  • Powders are a dry alternative to sprays.


Halt the lifecycle of fleas and ticks for one month or more. Once your dog is rid of fleas and ticks, continued maintenance is needed for a pest-free pet. Maintenance products include drops and collars.
  • Drops kill flea eggs, larvae and adult fleas. They also provide protection against ticks, which may transmit Lyme disease. Farnam Bio Spot (also kills and repels mosquitoes), Hartz Advanced Care Plus Drops (for dogs only) and Zodiac Spot On are formulated to be gentle and effective.
  • Advantage® breaks the flea life cycle.
  • K9 Advantix kills 98-100% of adult fleas on your pet within 12 hours, and repels and kills mosquitoes.
  • FRONTLINE® Plus breaks the flea life cycle and kills flea larvae.
  • Collars contain insecticides to kill adult fleas, or insect growth regulators that prevent flea eggs from hatching.


Avoid future infestations by treating the environment as well as your pet. Rugs, carpeting, furniture cushions and bedding are hotspots for fleas. Foggers, sprays and carpet powders are a quick and easy indoor solution for fleas.
  • Use Powders & Sprays for furniture, floors and bedding.
  • Aerosols & Foggers can be used for hard-to-reach areas and save labor by providing broad coverage in each room in which they are used.
  • Yard Control Sprays help eliminate fleas and ticks from your lawn and garden and help prevent their spread to the indoors.


Consider natural alternatives when dealing with your pet's fleas or ticks. Natural flea and tick control is available in all three steps to protect your pet and your home.
  • Shampoos kill fleas and tick with natural ingredients such as peppermint oil, cinnamon oil, rosemary oil and cedar oil.
  • Sprays allow you to repel fleas naturally.
  • Drops kill and repel fleas, ticks and mosquitoes with natural ingredients.


Remove fleas and ticks from your pet with the proper combs, tools and sprays.
Medications work to eliminate ear mites and ticks.
  • Combs remove fleas and ticks from your pet.
  • Sprays keep flies, mosquitoes and gnats off your pet.
  • Medications eliminate ear mites and ticks.


Worms can be transmitted by flea ingestion. Use dewormers to help prevent the re-infestation of worms.
  • Dewormers are used for the treatment and control of tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and whipworms.
