Advantix

Posted by: Dog Diaries on 01 Mar 2009

Advantix zaps ticks, fleas and other nasties.
Advantix repels before they get a chance to bite.

FIGHT YOUR DOG’ SPESTS!
Clever owners should reach for Advantix. It’s the one spot-on product that not only kills ticks – including paralysis, brown dog and bush ticks – but actually repels them. Repelled ticks drop off your dog before they have the chance to bite or attach.

It’s also effective on fleas: it stops fleas from feeding within three to five minutes of contact. Within 12 hours of applying Advantix, 98-100 per cent of the fleas on your dog will be dead.

Advantix has the longest protection against flying biting insects following a single application. It repels sandflies, mosquitoes and stable biting flies for a whole month without re-applying. Repelled and killed biting insects won’t stress your dog anymore by biting on its ear and giving you peace of mind.

ADVANTIX GIVES YOUR DOG A BITE-FREE AUTUMN AND WINTER, SPRING AND SUMMER!

Your local vet will stock Advantix: it comes in a pre-measured dosage you simply apply to the back of your dog’s neck. If you have any questions about Advantix, talk to your vet or call Bayer’s customer information line on 1800 678 368.
Advantix for Dogs is available in 3 and 6 tube packs from your veterinarian.

I have been using Advocate for my dog, buy I will be changing and buying Advantix, last week middle of winter I thought what is that on you neck, yes, a huge tick !!, couldn’t believe it, I thought ticks were only around in the warmer months and have not even been checking him, so watch out folks check your dogs for ticks no matter what time of year it is.

My poor little dog Snuffy (Shitsu) has been suffering from terrible fea allergies to the point she had NO fur on her back , since washing her in special shampoo Malase (Dermcare) then using Advantix, she now has fur back is starting to look like her beautiful Shitsu self! We used other flea products before Advantix but they did not have the same effect, her mate Prince (Poodle) also now has no problems with pests as well and both seem much happier dogs ! I will certainly keep using Advantix as it works.

I am wondering wether Advantix is very waterfast. I have a dog who loves the water and also has a bath quite regularly to wash of the sand etc.

Dog Diaries says:

The washing instructions are as follows:

If washing your dog before Advantix application, ensure that your dog is 100% dry prior to application. Please wait the minimum period of time between washing and treatment, when the dog is 100% dry. Therefore in hot environmental conditions it may only take a few hours before the dog is dry and Advantix can be applied.

Ensure that your dog does not come into contact with any water for 24 hours after application ie, no swimming or running in the rain. If your dog swims daily, this will affect the efficacy of the product. In this case you will need to apply Advantage 2 weeks after every Advantix application. However if your dog swims up to 4 times a week, Advantix monthly is all that is necessary. Wait a minimum of 7 days before bathing her after application, as this may remove the product from the coat before it is able to distribute evenly. Ensure that you always use a soap-free shampoo, as a shampoo containing detergent or soap will strip the product from the coat and render it ineffective. Do not wash more frequently than every fortnight. Flea or tick washes, rinses or shampoos have the same effect as soap-containing shampoos, they are extremely stripping and remove Advantix out of the fatty layer of the dogs’ skin. We recommend two excellent soap-free shampoos made by a company called Dermcare-Vet, they are Natural Shampoo and Aloveen, oatmeal and aloe vera shampoo.
