No Fleas so far! Does the job!

Good product

We have used this product for roughly 7 years. It has always prevented fleas the full month. For ticks it might last three weeks tops. Usually 2-2.5 weeks. But I can pull the ticks and spray the dogs with a cheap big retail store spray and it gets the dogs through the month with very little additional effort or cost. Plus it gives me some time with the dogs and they do not mind the short cleaning and grooming. The reason for four stars is the so-so job on ticks and the fact that my last order, which was for six dogs from 5 to 92 ibs, failed miserably. They all got fleas within a week. And of course they spread everywhere very quickly. I repeated the dose within the first week and in two days the fleas were back on them. I bathed the dogs with a flea killing shampoo. I bug bombed the house twice with a product stated to kill fleas. We washed and sprayed the inside dogs bedding. I sprayed the dog houses inside and out. I sprayed the dog pens, which I use if I need to quarantine a sick or injured dog. I sprayed the yard and a solid 15 yards beyond my property line. I followed that up by spreading granules. Ultimately I was compelled to switch to another very famous and more expensive product. When I was done and the fleas had been gone for 2 weeks I had spent over $480. None of this was labor as I did all of the work myself. Of course, if you have fewer dogs, a smaller house and a smaller yard your cost will be less. My wife and I keep our house immaculately clean and she has been insufferable during this month long war against fleas. She wouldn't allow anyone to even visit us for fear they would take fleas home with them. We will now spend the extra money for a better product because we learned the hard way that all it takes is a single failure of a flea product and it will cost us a money and WORK. To Pet Armor I say this.... You did right by us for a long time, for a fair price. Thank you for that. But one lapse in quality control was all it took for us to change labels. The drops were within date. Hopefully the more expensive drops won't cause us to repeat this experience.

Important to know: I have found that this works best if applied several days BEFORE or AFTER the cat (or dog) is bathed, as it seems to work better if the skin is not freshly cleaned and all skin oils haven't been removed. I have used this periodically for many years on cats (and also the dog formulation for my dogs). I rarely use chemicals on any of my animals and I avoid the ones noted as "Plus". But, on the rare occassions we go somewhere new and the Nitenpyram doesn't get all of the fleas due to a intense infestation, this is my "go to" defense, especially if I find a tick on one of them. I would never use this as often as it's recommended but so far, using it on rare occasions I have found it to be effective and no apparent side effects. I owned and operated a pet boarding facility for over 25 years and I recommended this to my clients. I never had one complain that it didn't work, nor that their pet reacted badly to the application. (For my cats I found the tricky part to be getting it high enough between their shoulder blades, toward their neck, so they can't lick it!)

This has to be applied every month. It works and has protected all my dogs.

It works . But fleas are back in 2-3 weeks and have to reapply. But I’ve tried all brands and they all do this : still worth the buy

The Worst flea treatment that I have ever used. I put it on 3 small dogs. All of them are covered in fleas. It's been 4 days and I noticed big increase in scratching, to the point that deep marks and bleeding. I knew first few hours the fleas would become irritated . Now they are biting me. It's like fertilizer and seems to be increasing the population of fleas on all 3 dogs. Product does not work.

So we had a bit of a flea emergency over this past week and things went from 0-60 in 2.2 and that's not much of an exaggeration and the worst part was, I just didn't have the money to get the kind we normally use, Frontline. I ordered this because the babies were being tortured because I was about a week late with their treatment and it couldn't wait any longer and well... I just simply couldn't afford anything else right now. Well, it arrived 24 hours ago and my dogs are content & comfortable now after a miserable few days of digging nonstop. It exceeded what I'd hoped for and when they came to bed with us last night we were all finally able to sleep for the first time in days. My mind is already made up, if this stuff lasts for the entire next 30 days we are switching to this brand. I can't have my babies miserable like that again and there is no reason to keep paying so much for our regular brand when this stuff so far seems to be working as well as or even better than our usual brand. My babies give it 5 BIG stars!
