My dogs are like my children and I am always buying the best for them, but with several instances of finding fleas on my dog I was upset with frontline.  The last straw was when I found a dead tick on my lab.  You may think dead is good, but it wasn't the tick had time to attach and swell up the size... read full review »

I tried out K9 Advantix because it was less expensive than Frontline Plus and was advertised to repel more insects. As far as efficacy was concerned, it was comparable to frontline. It may have repelled mosquitoes and biting flies. I don't know. I didn't notice a big difference. The dog I tried it out...

When we first rescued our dog it was a mess.  After her initial groom, we of course found her to be covered in fleas and later ticks got hold of her.  When we got the Advantix drops, the problem disappeared immediately.  Advantix flea and tick drops really worked wonders.  We got it for our dog and our cats, and enjoy a flea and tick free home.

I am a licensed vet tech and I strongly suggest Advantix for dogs only!  This product is toxic if applied to cats!  Make sure you are applying the product correctly, if you have any questions just ask your veterinarian to show you how to apply it.  I wouldn't use any other product other than the advantage products!!!

I have used all of the prescription and nonprescription tick medicines and Advantix is the only one that actually worked for my dog.  I will only purchase this from now on.

I've used Advantix for a few years now on our 50 lb. Aussie mix and it is wonderful. This year I tried Frontline Plus and it didn't do anything for our dog. She was covered in ticks after our last camping trip and has been scratching from fleas ever since we made the switch to Frontline. I have a flea allergy so it's really important to me that we keep the fleas out of our home. I'm definitely switching back to Advantix and getting rid of the worthless Frontline! Both Advantix and Frontlineleft an oily spot where it is applied but that disappeared by the next day. It didn't affect us since my...

I have two small dogs that are happily flea and tick free thanks to Advantix Flea and Tick Medicine. I had been using Frontline Plus and it stopped working when I moved to a new neighborhood. The veterinarian recommended that I try Advantix. As soon as I started using Advantix my flea problem was solved. I never  really had a problem with ticks so I am not sure how well it works for that purpose. I use soap free shampoo when I give the dogs a bath to be sure not to wash the product off. I am not sure you have to do that but it was recommended when I purchased the product. I have to use it...

  We have always used Advantix on our Min-pin because we drive a truck cross country and it works great especially since we walk our dog in all types of terrain.  We were actually warned by a DOT Officer in Missouri one year that it was a bad year for ticks.  Well we had to walk our dog and we did see ticks but Dobie (our dog) never got any.  Now we buy enough every 6 months for our two dogs, my moms two dogs and my brothers dog-all of which roam around in the woods. 

  We have tried other products, which I am sure work for some people, but Advantix works best for our family.

When I lost my job, I tried to save money by buying over the counter flea control.  I had actually had my dog on Sentinel before, so I didn't even know what fleas looked like.  Needless to say, he and the cats became infested, and I was horrified.  So after wasting my money on store brand flea and tick control, Advantix killed the fleas immediately and has kept my dog flea-free ever since.

We use this stuff from March or April through November - in a tick-infested area. While we still find ticks on our dog, they seem to come off easily and don't get as embedded as they used to. The stuff is a little messy, though, and greasy to touch. His white coat gets a dark, dirty looking sticky stripe down his back.

Advantix flea and tick medicine works great!  It's simple to use and takes care of the fleas in no time.  I don't have a problem with ticks where I live though, so I couldn't say for sure how well it works for them.

This is the best and fastest-acting flea and tick treatment on the market.  Does you dog scratch like mad because of fleas?  On application of this product, and I assure you that the scratching will STOP.

I started using Frontline plus for my dog and I noticed she still had Fleas, I ended switching to Advantix and within the next day the fleas were gone and she stopped itching herself to death. I think this product works great and I recommend this brand to anyone that is having problem with fleas. This brand got rid of baby & adult fleas and also the eggs which most brand don't get rid of the eggs. My dog is so much happier now and flea free!!

I love it because I try my best to keep my dog healthy and this just adds the comfort of knowing mosquitos wont be a problem either...which is great iin so cal since mosquitos are year round basically and carry so many diseases. The only thing is that you need to make sure your dog isnt around cats becauseproblems have been noticed with cats licking it off them.

I started out using Advantix when I first got my Cocker last year but she was itching with it pretty constant and it's more expensive than some of the other brands.   I tried the Frontier Plus on her after the Advantix didn't seem to be doing the job and haven't had a problem or the frequent itching really since.
