Product Detail: Advocate for Dogs & Cats
Advantage Multi (Advocate)
Advantage Multi is known as Advocate in Australia and the UK. Pet Shed sells the Australian or UK packaged version of Advantage Multi (Advocate). Advocate offers protection against multiple parasites in one easy-to-administer topical monthly dose – no need to battle with tablets!
Treat and prevent fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) in both dogs and cats with Advantage Multi and include it as part of a routine treatment regime for Flea Allergic Dermatitis (FAD). With Advantage Multi, you can also fight ear mites (Otodectes cyanotis) and prevent heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis), and several intestinal worms in dogs and cats including roundworm, heartworm, lungworm, and whipworm.
How Advantage Multi (Advocate) works
After application, the active ingredient imidacloprid spreads across the skin and coat, killing existing fleas within 12 hours. After this time, re-infesting fleas are affected by the active ingredient in 3-5 minutes and killed within 1 hour, on contact. Imidacloprid is shed into the environment as your pet sheds the skin and fur, killing flea larvae within 20 minutes. This helps break the flea lifecycle.
Advantage Multi’s unique formula prevents heartworm disease in cats and dogs while controlling fleas, roundworms, and hookworms, and ear mites in both species and whipworms, Sarcoptes and Demodex mites in dogs. Advantage Multi works rapidly to control fleas, killing over 98% of adult fleas within 12 hours of application. Protecting your pet against common parasites has never been easier with this fantastic new product.
What are the active ingredients in Advantage Multi (Advocate)?
Active ingredients:
- imidacloprid
- moxidectin
How can Advantage Multi be administered to dogs and cats?
Advantage Multi is applied topically to the skin on the back of the neck – usually once a month or every four weeks. It should be applied to an area where your pet cannot reach to lick it off, usually between the shoulder blades.
The dose of Advantage Multi required will depend on your pet’s weight and comes in several strengths so that any sized animal can be given an accurate dose. Advantage Multi can be given safely alongside most veterinary medicines.
Dogs – 10mg/kg bodyweight imidacloprid and 2.5mg/kg bodyweight moxidectin. This equates to 0.1ml/kg bodyweight Advocate dog solution.
Cats – 10mg/kg imidacloprid and 1mg/kg moxidectin. This equates to 0.1ml/kg Advocate cat solution.
Use the top of the cap to break seal of tube. Part hair between the shoulder blades until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and squeeze the tube firmly to apply the solution directly to the skin.

Advocate
This is an awesome product. We have used it for many years with great results. Sand fleas are really bad in our part of the USA and this does the job. We have never had a positive heartworm test on any of our pets.
Love It!
I have always ordered Advocate from Canada because it is so much better at killing fleas than anything else I have used. It also works on worms AND the HORRIBLE ear mites that can aggravate the boys. I have 6 big cats, so the 6-pack is just right for my needs.
flea usage
Have been using the advantage multi for some time now and find it very effective. easy to administer. Marie smith
Pleased
I am pleased at the prices Joes charges for their products. Also, that I can avoid the hassle of having to have a prescription for certain products as is necessary in the US. Love the convenience of ordering through the internet.
There is nothing that works as well as Advocate/Advantage
I have been using Advocate on my dogs for many years now. I tried all of the other top rated flea treatments, but trips to the dog park would reintroduce fleas. I live in a warm climate which allowed the fleas to multiply rapidly. In the four-five years since I switched to Advocate I have had NO flea problem. What a relief - for me and the dogs!
Joe's Pet Meds - Advantage-Multi (Advocate)
Advantage - Multi (also known as Advocate) is THE BEST product for prevention of fleas, heart worms, ticks, intestinal parasites, and ear mites, in my opinion. Joe's Pet Meds delivers on time and has great prices. Both the product and Joe's Pet Meds provide a huge advantage for caring pet owners on a limited income. Thanks!
Terrific Product and Company
I've been buying my cats Flea/Heartwormer from Joe's for over 3 years now. They have the best prices around and their service is terrific. And because I buy in bulk and purchase the entire year all at once the savings are wonderful and fast.
BEST AROUND!!!!
i have tried just about everything for my dogs and NOTHING compares to this product!!!! this is MOST excellent for the price..even the stuff you buy in the states doesnt work as well as this does!!! i have always gotten my order promptly...will continue to order from joes pet meds !!! they are awesome!!!!
Absolute great product and great service!
My 17 lb furball, Little Bit, suddenly came up with fleas and ear mites (I live in Texas). Frontline did nothing for him and I had heard about Advocate and ordering from Joes Pet Meds. I was skeptical at first at ordering AND whether Advocate would treat both fleas and ear mites. Well, I was wrong, Advocate did both. The fleas disappeared within 24 hours. The ear mites were nearly all elminated within72 hours. When I received my first order and read the label, I was a bit concerned that what Advocate would do was good "down under" but what about in Texas? My question to Joes was answered within 12 hour and from that I was very confident that Advocate was what my cat needed. I highly recommend the product and Joes Ped Meds.
