Protect your large dog from the discomfort and irritation of fleas with Advantage Flea Treatment for Dogs Over 25kg. This fast-acting, easy-to-apply monthly spot-on treatment, from the trusted Advantage brand by Elanco, is specifically formulated to effectively kill fleas on contact and provide lasting protection for dogs weighing over 25 kilograms.
 
Fleas are a common nuisance and can cause intense itching, skin irritation, and even lead to Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD). Advantage works quickly to eliminate fleas and break the flea lifecycle, helping to keep your dog and your home flea-free.
 
What it Treats:
Advantage for Dogs Over 25kg is highly effective against:
Adult Fleas: Kills fleas already on your dog.
Flea Larvae: Kills larval flea stages in the dog's surroundings (like bedding and resting areas) after contact with the treated dog's shed skin and hair, helping to prevent re-infestation.
Chewing Lice: Also aids in the control of chewing lice.
 
How it Works:
The active ingredient in Advantage is Imidacloprid. This powerful insecticide works on contact, meaning fleas don't need to bite your dog to receive a lethal dose. It rapidly affects the fleas' nervous system, leading to paralysis and death. Fleas stop biting within minutes of application, providing quick relief for your dog.
 
Designed for Large Dogs:
This specific variant is dosed for dogs weighing over 25kg, containing 4.0 mL of the active solution per application tube. For effective coverage on larger dogs, the dose is typically applied in multiple spots along the backline.
 
Application and Frequency:
Advantage is a simple-to-use topical spot-on treatment. You apply the contents of the pipette directly onto your dog's skin, usually between the shoulder blades and/or along the back for larger dogs, according to the package instructions. For continuous protection, apply once a month, every month, year-round.
 
Key Benefits:
Fast-Acting: Stops fleas from biting within 3-5 minutes and kills adult fleas quickly (typically within 1-12 hours).
Breaks the Flea Lifecycle: Kills flea larvae in the environment, preventing future infestations.
Waterproof: Remains effective even if your dog gets wet from rain, swimming, or bathing (using a soap-free shampoo and after the application site is dry).
Easy to Apply: Convenient spot-on application.
Also Controls Lice: Provides added protection against chewing lice.
Reduces Flea Allergy Dermatitis: By quickly killing fleas, it helps minimise the painful bites that trigger FAD.
Safe: Can be used on puppies from birth (though usually recommended from 7-8 weeks or by treating the mother), as well as pregnant and lactating dogs.
 
Important Considerations:
Advantage for Dogs Over 25kg is a highly effective flea and lice treatment. However, it is not effective against ticks, heartworm, or intestinal worms. For complete parasite protection, consult your veterinarian to develop a tailored parasite control program for your dog.
 
Keep your large dog comfortable and protected from fleas with the reliable, fast-acting power of Advantage Flea Treatment for Dogs Over 25kg.
