Great product
Date: July 28, 2008
"I have a Boxer and an English Bulldog. My Bulldog used to get fleas and he would rub up against anything he could and spin in circles on the floor trying to scratch his back to the point of rubbing his fur off and getting skin infectons. This product got rid of the fleas and now no more skin problems.. I like it too because it repels mosquitos. Also, it isn't oily and doesn't have any smell like some of the cheap brands you may purchase from a regular department store."

"This is a must have if you have dogs. I have used it since it has been out and it works GREAT! Once it is on my dogs I don't have problems with ticks, fleas, or mosquitoes. I have never been disappointed with this product."

This stuff works!
Date: July 26, 2008
"I spent hundreds of dollars on Frontline over the last several years with no success. Each time I thought, "ok, it will work this time, I just didn't do it right." It never did. My mutt doesn't handle fleas very well at all. He chews his self raw and constantly barks, scratches, and whines. I forked the money out for this stuff and it was worth it. It took a little longer than is stated in the description but he is so much better. I haven't seen a flea since the 2nd or 3rd day. I will definitely buy this product again. Its expensive, but it does what it says, unlike Frontline."

Very Good Product
Date: July 18, 2008
"I have used this product on both my dogs and we have never had a problem with fleas or ticks. My cairn terrier was very allergic to fleas so we had to be extra careful with him as we travel to other parts of the country and are dealing with the North and South. Again we never had a problem since using this product."

Keeps bugs OFF!
Date: July 7, 2008
"My dogs are doing great with this product! Not a single flea, tick, OR mosquito. Neither dog is getting chewed up by black flies eather. I used to feel so bad for them when ever I saw the little red bites on their bellies, or the itchy eyes. This product really does a great job!"

Seems to work but..
Date: June 25, 2008
"K9 Advantix seems to be working. Neither of my dogs has had any fleas or ticks on them since I started the medication. (In the past I had only found one tick on them without the medicine though.) We do live about 2 houses away from a forrest in Illinois and there are deer that run through it.
The only problem I had with the medicine is that there is a lot in the tube and its hard to get it all to soak up in the dogs skin. I applied it in 3 places on the skin and in each place there was so much that the fur was saturated too. Both of the dogs tried to lick it off, but I know some was soaked up into the skin.
My only concern with this and many flea/tick topical meds is that it says in the directions that the medicine should not contact your skin and if so wash for a long period of time...and call poision control. It also says do not get any of it in the water supply, as it is very toxic for fish......if the product is that bad for us and other creatures....how is it ok for our dogs???"

Works great
Date: June 24, 2008
"Was having a hard time with fleas this year, usually don't. I got advantix and now I haven't seen a single flea on my pup! I choose advantix because it also repels mosquitos, so any added protection against heartworms is great!"

k9 advantix
Date: June 15, 2008
"I purchased this product when the over the counter flea medicine didn't work. I was a bit hesitant due to the price, however it went on sale and thought why not.
I put it on Wrangler and he no longer is scratching or whimpering as he did. I am impressed on it's performance and going to try getting advantix for my 2 cats.
Thank you

Great Purchase
Date: June 14, 2008
"I'm glad I bought the Advantix over the Frontline that I've always used. The K9 Advantix guards against mosquitoes whereas the Frontline doesn't. I live in an area close to the water where mosquitoes can be pretty abundant. Along with not having to worry about either of my dogs getting bitten by flys or ticks, I have the added comfort of knowing the mosquitoes aren't a problem either. I have recommended K9 Advantix to all the dog owners in my family and circle of friends."
