Product Detail: K9 Advantix
Advantix
Advantix for dogs kills fleas and ticks on contact which means fleas are killed even before they bite your dog. Advantix also repels ticks, mosquitoes, sandflies, and stable flies. Available as a simple water-resistant and spot-on treatment for dogs of all sizes and puppies from seven weeks of age, Advantix offers an easy solution to keep your pet safe against parasites.
What are the active ingredients in Advantix?
Active ingredients:
- imidacloprid
- permethrin
How Advantix works
Advantix repels ticks. The great advantage of this is that it can repel a tick before it bites your dog. Any ticks attached prior to the application of Advantix will be killed by the product but will remain attached.
Advantix continues to be effective after a treated dog is exposed to water. This allows the dog to continue to participate in swimming and being bathed.
How can you properly administer Advantix?
Advantix for Dogs is applied as a spot-on treatment at skin level. For dogs less than 25kg, the entire contents of the tube are applied between the shoulder blades. For dogs over 25kg, the appropriate dose is divided and applied between the shoulder blades, between the hips, and at one point in between.
Advantix for dogs is available in 4 different sizes:
- Dogs less than 4kg - green pack
- Dogs 4-10kg - turquoise (aqua) pack
- Dogs 10-25kg - red pack
- Dogs over 25kg - blue pack
Dogs over 50kg require dosage with 2 pipettes from the blue pack.
Owners of growing dogs need to be aware of any changes in their dog's weight to ensure that the appropriate dose is given to protect their dog as it grows.
Dogs generally accept the administration of spot-on treatments fairly well. However, if your dog doesn't cooperate, using distraction techniques may be of benefit. Having another person pat the dog or offer a small treat at the time of application is often beneficial for such animals. If your dog likes to roll in the dirt or grass immediately after application, take the dog for a walk immediately after application to ensure it is not rubbed off. After every application of Advantix, owners should consider placing a marker on the calendar for the next due date to ensure continuity of protection and avoid forgetting a dose.
What are the precautions in using Advantix?
Advantix must not be used on cats or animals other than dogs. Do not allow cats to actively groom or have close physical contact with a recently treated dog. Ensure that Advantix does not contact the mouth or eyes of the treated dog. Advantix must not be used in puppies less than 7 weeks of age.

K9 Advantix
This is great for my dogs. Advantix worked well. It removed ticks and fleas quickly. Made my dog healthy and clean again.
Great price
Joe's Pet Meds never fail to amaze me. They really got the best prices. Last week I went to the vet and the vet advised me to have Advantix on my dog. I told him I'll buy the medicine somewhere else and when I check on Joe's, it is available. And it has really a low price. Thank you
Best to buy
Not only does it kills ticks and fleas. But also, it repels mosquitoes. Does it prevents heart worms. Definitely the best product to buy. Everything my dog needs in one product. Thank you Pet Shed!
Tick and flea control
every summer, ticks and fleas are the main problem for pet owners in our town. I'm using Advantix for my dogs and I'm sharing the secret to everyone. I also told them Joe's pEt Meds has the best prices and service.
Spot on treatment
I've tried chewables and I'm not very please with those products. Spot on treatments still work the best for my dogs. Since it directly kills tick and fleas. Less hassle with this one.
Works so well
Thanks to Advantix. Definitely no more ticks and fleas on my dogs. They were all gone. I'm so amazed on how fast Advantix works. Just after few weeks after application, no more parasites on their coat. And their fur is back to being healthy and clean.
