hi, is anyone that uses this actually seeing the dead fleas on their floors? like advantage 2? thanks need 2 no..

It's chemically identical to Advantage II so will work exactly the same. If you're seeing dead fleas on the floor it's likely the result of your cat's grooming, scratching, or if the fur is very short. I've used both and have only noticed dead fleas on the floor or on my husband's pillow (a favorite sleeping place) after my cat had a productive grooming session. This was from a cat that used to go outside daily and likely picked up fleas in the yard. Now that he's an indoor cat it's rare to find a flea, but as the dog still goes outside we treat the cats in order to avoid a possible flea issue. We haven't noticed dead fleas on the floor from the dog but believe they may be in her bed that's laundered weekly during warm weather to remove any fleas or flea dirt. We have used both Advecta and Advantix on her, depending on which is available. As with the cats, they both work the same and are effective.

I accidentally bought the the 5-9 lb. size for my cat that weighs 13 pounds. Should I use 2 tubes instead of one?

I purposely bought the small cat one for my 15 pound cat, I also break up the dosage over several days so there is less poison on my cat at one time: I put only one small squeeze on at a time. This last time wthin 2 days my cat stopped scratching so I didn't finish using the rest of the tube. It's safer to apply smaller amts of these poisons at a time, so I may just put the rest of the tube in a couple weeks.

There is a production code on the exterior of the box that has the date within the last 6-8 digits. Someone has mentioned here and in other areas that flea and tick topicals do not have an expiration date or that they do not expire. This is untrue. Using old product can make an animal ill, so it is always best to discard old topicals within a year or two of purchase, using the date code on the exterior of the box as a guide. For those saying topicals don't expire, I have two veterinarian bills for two separate animals treated with topicals purchased from the previous year because I believed the no expiration hooey. We were fortunate enough that one was young, strong, and determined not to die on us because there is no antidote. He was in hospital for two days and managed to survive. The other didn't make it. We spent thousands of dollars and would willingly have spent more to have both survive instead of just the one. Topicals, like any other chemical composition, do have a shelf life and over time can become chemically different. Don't assume because there is no expiration date or because it doesn't contain a specific ingredient that it's safe, regardless of how old it is.

why will it take 3 to for 4 weeks to deliver ? it says it is Prime !

I see this question was awhile ago but maybe it will help someone else too. It did NOT take that long when I ordered it. I had mine in a week. And I think you get free shipping or a discount if you are a prime member.

It's Cheaper than Advantage and works just as well.

As the owner of 5 full grown cats and always rescuing more in need, I found this to be the most effective and least expensive way to protect them from fleas and ticks. It has worked for mine for 2 years now. The best is also it comes in packs of 4 so I can buy 2 packs and cover them all and even the strays. It's easy to apply also. I think it's just as good as advantage!

No More Fleas

This product works very well for cats. A lot less expensive than the leading brands. I had a flea infestation and this product eliminated allthe fleas completely after 2 doses. I have since kept up giving them a dose every month.

Works but takes longer to see results than advised.

This is a good product. I have thick coated cats & always wish it was much stronger because the hair absorbed the drops .

Works perfectly. Cheaper than vet.

Works great and cheaper than buying from the vet. Occasionally my indoor cats get fleas. I guess they come in on our shoes (common in sandy soil). I usually use it for about 3 months just to make sure all eggs are killed. It works perfectly. You see improvement from day 1.

It works!

I buy these for my cats monthly! Ever since I have started using this on them, they have never gotten fleas, ticks, or any bugs. It last them the entire month until they're next dosage is ready. It is super easy to use with only having to cut the tip of the tube off and it is super easy to squeeze. The only side effect I have noticed is that it makes them sleepy the following day. If you get the product on your hand or anything, it is super easy to wash off.

FAILED TO ELIMINATE

3 cats and a dog. Fleas came on fast and cats were coated with them and very itchy. One cat was still verry fluffy. One cat had thinned her hair in a quarter inch sized spot on the nape of her neck from scratching with a hind foot. Third cat was terribly itchy and quite a balding mess by the time the treatment arrive in the mail. The cats are indoor cats, dog must have picked up a massively large flea circus outside and brought it home. Dog was treated with a different product for canines.All cats treated the day medication arrived.Dog also treated and the one room (bedroom) in our house with carpet was flea bombed with raid flea bomb for good measure.1 week after treatment cats week happy and no longer itchy.2 weeks after treatment cats hair was growing in nicely. Some irritated scratching started. One cat started her irritated tail wagging, followed by running away, then stopping and itching.3 weeks in fleas visible crawling across the white face of my black and white cat.4 weeks I will be in USING A DIFFERENT PRODUCT

Didn't work

Waste of money. Formula needs to change because fleas are immune to it.
