Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise the fast-acting flea control, with most reporting visible results and dead fleas within hours of administration. Many note dramatic reduction in fleas and relief from itching, with dogs stopping scratching almost immediately. Reviewers highlight that dogs willingly consume the chews like treats, making administration easy. However, some report limited effectiveness in severe infestations or high-flea environments, and a few mention cost concerns. Despite these drawbacks, most customers consider it highly effective and remain loyal to the product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 2 small dogs a yorkiepoo about 5lb and a chihuahua mix about 10lb and we live in a rural area of Virginia I always worried about tick every time I take them for a walk I been giving them the oral flea soft chew and they love the taste and it’s easy to treat them I have not noticed any tick since I started using the soft chew it is something less I have to worry about. I would recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a Pomeranian, and although she doesn’t spend much time outdoors, it’s inevitable that sometimes, when she goes outside to do her business, she may come back with signs of fleas. I’ve noticed this happens more often during the summer, so that’s when we need to be more attentive to her behavior and use this treatment as a preventive measure. I like how fast and effective it is, since with just one capsule I can notice that within a few hours her itching decreases and she feels much more comfortable. Although the first time we used it she had a bit of vomiting the next day, we noticed she no longer had any fleas. Whenever we see her scratching excessively, we give her a capsule to help prevent reproduction and further infestation. These capsules have a meat flavor, are soft, and were very easy for her to take. I recommend it as a quick and effective way to help control fleas and protect our pets.

My dog accepts these chewable tablets well. I like that they are easy to give, the packaging brings 30 pieces and they are small for dogs from 4 to 22 pounds. The texture looks soft and easy to give, and is a practical option to help with fleas following the instructions on the packaging.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this before for my baby, and it worked really well for us. It was easy to give, affordable, and my dog did't have any problem taking it. When I have opportunity to receive it for free to review, I was happy because this is something I would honesty buy again by my own money. I like it easy to use and work well with flea protection. Definitely a product I feel comfortable recommend!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog is very picky when it comes to any treats. These she ate up so fast and they have helped so much with not having any fleas! Love it so much, thank you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My small dogs loved these! One of them is usually such a picky eater with snacks so I was very surprised she ate this like nothing. I didn’t notice any side effects and the dosage makes it fairly easy to keep up with!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works pretty well for my 20lb dog. She currently uses Nexguard but it needs vet prescription. The best thing about these is that these are non prescription. My dog doesn’t seem to mind it so it must taste good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been giving the Advantus Oral Flea Soft Chews to our dog for about 3 weeks now. The chew is soft and easy for our dog to digest. He is always excited when he sees the bottle come out of the cabinet so it’s been easy to administer. It has been a success and I will be purchasing more.

Questions

1 - 10 of 15 Questions

Are these recommended on Puppie's 12 weeks old and over 5 pounds

    Does it help with itching?

      How often gives to dogs? My dogs 14 pounds and 12 pounds. They don’t have fleas but I want to made sure they not gets any 

      1. Advantus Flea Soft Chews for Small Dogs 4-22lbs, 30 count $54.98 reg $99.99 $52.23 Select in Checkout Count 30 This is the size you would want for the size of your dogs. They can have as many as one a day or if you don't notice anymore fleas, I would just stop giving them until you see another outbreak.



      How often do I give the chew ? Once a month? It dose not say on package

      1. Once a day



      What "flavor" are these chews?

        Can this be used alongside nexgard?

          Do I give one tablet per month or only as needed?

          1. Its really as needed, these are not tablets... they are chews, like treats. The meds only stay in the dogs system for a short time. I use these because my dog is sensitive to foods/meds and I don't want to use a month long treatment that stays in his system. If I notice a flea on him or he starts scratching then I give him a chew. They start working within a hour, I have used these for about a year now and it works really well for him. (note: he is an inside dog, he is not a total outdoor dog)



          Can this be used in conjunction with a topical monthly medication like advantix? My dog has a bad flea problem right now and the advantix we use just isn't holding up.

          1. Yes - this product is meant to kill the majority of fleas on the animal right away, but IT ONLY LASTS 24 HOURS. You HAVE to use a monthly medication - like Advantix - to maintain and control the fleas after. You can also give this pill daily for flea control. Give the pill, wash the pet in original blue Dawn dish detergent to further kill and wash away the fleas, then use the monthly control product the day after.



          Can this be used on cats

          1. According to the manufacturer, on the box it clearly says not to give it to cats.



          Once a day for how long? It is not stated in the directions. Please help.

          1. This product will kill all the fleas on your dog BUT it will not prevent other fleas from getting on them. You will have to use this product each time your dog gets fleas. This is "hands down" the best product I've ever used to get rid of the fleas on my dog, its too bad they don't make it for cats also.
