great medication - read the directions and do research!
this flea medication works! a few things to note that i’ve seen in the reviews and it doesn’t seem like people do too much research - not to be abrasive but don’t miss out on a good product because people don’t read. this product is easy to use, effective, and provides protection from all life stages of fleas when used continuously.1. your dog is still itching after you apply the medication because they have flea bites. they will continue to itch for a few days or weeks until the bites are gone. you can use a oatmeal or anti itch shampoo to help. itching doesn’t necessarily mean continuing biting.2. you need to get it on to their skin and follow the directions which includes continuing in a line down their back from collar to beginning of tail.3. if you have an active infestation you should couple this product with a oral medication. it is safe to mix most oral and topical preventatives/treatments. you also need to wash their bedding and vacuum. you can treat these items with diatomaceous earth - put it on bedding or carpet and then vacuum it up. if you don’t feel like doing this just throw the stuff away. you also need to empty your vacuum canister in a bag and take it to the garbage for best results. you should also bathe your dog, it is acceptable to do this with dawn dish soap which is especially effective for fleas.4. fleas have a life cycle so if you are struggling with an infestation you probably need to repeat the above directions in #3 every week for about 6 weeks in order to kill the fleas. you should readminister an oral medication once a week as well that kills adult fleas.5. yes dogs die from preventative flea medication. they also die from tapeworms that they get from fleas and fleas are miserable and pesky. it is a cost benefit analysis. dogs die from all sorts of flea medication, generic, oral, topical, or collars. it is a possibility that is listed in the information on this preventative - people don’t think it’ll be their dog. one of my dogs gets seizures from oral flea medication which is why we practice prevention from everyone else in the house and we have her on topical only.6. this is a generic version of a brand name product. it is the same dosage and ingredients as frontline. the big makers of pet medications have spent billions of dollars in advertising and litigation to make generic pet medications difficult to find and utilize.this is worth a try and it’s a great value for the price.

An Excellent Price For Effective Flea and Tick Control
This has the same active ingredients in the same amounts per dose as Frontline Plus, but for about 1/3 the cost! Haven't actually used this on my dog yet, but I've use Frontline Plus, and it worked well. I expect this will work just as well. If it doesn't, I will revise my review!I think some people don't have good results because they don't apply it correctly. It is very important that you squeeze the product directly on to the dog's SKIN, not the fur! The product has to be absorbed into the skin and distributed throughout the body surface by the dog's sebaceous glands. If you see a big wet patch in the dog's fur after applying, you didn't apply it correctly and it will not work. I've used Fipronil based flea and tick control on my dogs for years, and if applied correctly, it is very effective. This is a good deal!

This Product just KILLED MY DOG!
The media could not be loaded. 18 hours after applying this flea product to my healthy 4-year-old Black Mouth Cur, she died of anaphylactic shock. She bled out as her blood would not clot. After rushing her to the emergency vet and spending $2,000 to save her, the tests confirm that she was poisoned by this product! I'm furious. DO NOT use this product!We applied Amazon Basics Flea and Tick Topical (Large dog 45 - 80 lbs) This is a generic to FrontLine Plus. It was administered as instructed between the shoulders of our healthy, 4 year old Black Mouth Cur Sunny.She was perfectly fine in the morning and was with me all day at my desk until 5 pm. When I got up at 5, she did too then started throwing up and lost control of her bowels.We rushed her to the emergency vet who ran xrays and blood work to confirm she had gone into anaphylaxis shock and her blood would not clot anymore. She was bleeding out due to the toxicity of the dose of the pesticide. The veterinarian asked if she could have gotten into rat poison and I told him no, but I had just applied this flea and tick dose.He confirmed that was the likely culprit. We had to euthanize her to prevent further suffering. We are completely devastated.Please stay away from this product. I found 10 other reviews that say this product KILLED THEIR DOGS.Yet, Amazon won't remove the product. BEWARE!!

Affordable PREVENTATIVE
The price is hard to beat, and it worked FLAWLESSLY for prevention. But I forgot to reorder for my dog that is a different weight range than the rest, and we of course had fleas within a week. With an ACTIVE infestation, this is much less effective because it wears off significantly by 2-3 weeks (typical of flea drops in general)But once the infestation is over with I will go back to using this because it is so much more affordable than bravecto chews.I do wish they these had a snap off top instead of needing to be cut with scissors.

Worth Buying
I swear by this! I use it on my two huskies and works perfectly, just like the brand name. Definitely have ticks in my back yard and when I put the treatment on my dogs, never find ticks on them. And reasonable priced.
