Keep
your cat and your home safe from fleas with Advantage II Large Cats over 9 pounds.
Formulated for cats eight weeks and older and weighing over 9
pounds, Advantage II kills fleas within hours of application and
protects against future flea infestations.
The Importance of Flea Protection
Protecting
your cat from fleas is essential for health and well-being. Flea bites
not only cause discomfort for your cat, but also can cause irritation
that can lead to skin infections. In some cases, flea bites can lead to
allergic skin reactions, or even result in the transmission of other
disease-causing organisms, such as tapeworms.
Millions
of pet owners have found success against fleas with Advantage Topical
Solution. Its successor, Advantage II, kills even more flea life stages.
Advantage II kills fleas through contact, so they don't even have to
bite to be destroyed. This helps reduce the risk of secondary problems,
such as flea-allergy dermatitis.
The
active ingredient in Advantage II, imidacloprid, acts on the nervous
system of the flea to cause paralysis and subsequent death. Advantage II
destroys the fleas living on your cat within 12 hours of application,
providing quick relief for your pet. Reinfesting fleas (newly hatched
fleas jumping back on your cat) are killed within two hours of
application, so if your pet picks up fleas from another animal or
infested environment, those fleas will be killed as well.
Advantage II Flea Control Large Cats over 9 lbs
Kills fleas within hours of application
Breaks flea life cycle, protecting against future flea infestations
Waterproof formula won't wash off
Easy to apply
Includes four convenient one-month doses
For cats eight weeks and older and weighing over 9 pounds
Per Dose: $10.00
The adult fleas you see are only a small percentage of the infestation.View larger.
Protects Against Further Flea Infestations
If
you are already dealing with a flea infestation, you may only be aware
of the adult fleas, which comprise a mere 5 percent of the full
infestation. The flea eggs, larvae, and pupae make up the other 95
percent of the infestation and can be virtually invisible to the eye.
The insect growth regulator contained in Advantage II effectively breaks
the flea life cycle at multiple stages to treat existing infestations
and prevent future infestations. Each dose of Advantage II provides
protection for an entire month.
Waterproof Formula
Advantage
II is waterproof, so there's no need to reapply after your cat has a
bath or goes out in the rain. Studies show that cats are still protected
against fleas after exposure to water, though for best results, cats
treated with Advantage II should be bathed with a non-detergent shampoo.
This
Advantage II product is EPA approved and registered, so it's guaranteed
to be the exact same product sold by your Veterinarian. Click here for more information on EPA-approved pet products.
Package Contents
Box includes six 0.8-millimeter tubes of Advantage II for Large Cats.
Applying
Advantage II to your cat is a fast and easy process. First, remove the
applicator tube from its packaging and use scissors to peel down the
foil. Next, hold the applicator tube in an upright position and pull the
cap off the tube. Use the upturned cap to break the protective seal,
and you're ready for application.
Part
your cat's hair on the back of the neck at the base of the skull until
the skin is visible, then place the tip of the tube on the skin and
gently squeeze out the entire solution. Placing the treatment here
minimizes the cat's ability to lick the product, which is bitter tasting
and may cause salivation for a short time if licked after it is
applied. Do not get this product in your cat's eyes or mouth. Dispose of
the container and do not reuse or refill. Do not empty unused product
in any indoor or outdoor drain.
For
optimal control and prevention of parasites, use Advantage II every
month. Do not use this product on any animals other than cats.
Length of Effectiveness
Under
normal conditions, Advantage II is effective for one month. However, in
cases of severe flea infestation, retreatment may be necessary earlier
than four weeks. Do not retreat more often than once every 14 days.
After flea control is attained, return to a monthly retreatment
schedule.
Caution
See back panel for first aid. For instructions on storage and disposal, see supplemental labeling inside package.
Keep out of reach of children.

Advantage II for Cats by Debra from Marietta, Ohio03/14/2012
Very good product! I was using Frontline Plus, but was still seeing fleas. After using Advantage II after just one month, have not seen a flea after the first week! Thank you

Great Product!!! by Georgi from Tallahassee, FL10/06/2011
This is definitely the best flea product out there for cats. Don't waste your money buying the less expensive stuff. Entirely Pets offers Advantage II for a great price and the FASTEST delivery I've ever experienced!
Advantage II by sjay from Boston, MA10/27/2011
I treated 3 cats with this. I used to use regular Advantage for cats years ago and it worked superbly, and Frontline for a dog. Indoor cats got fleas this year because decided to let one explore the great outdoors for a week, until she brought the fleas in, which in turn found the other pets of course. Unfortunately, I believe fleas are becoming somewhat immune to these formulas or the formulas have changed. Took 2 treatments to put a significant dent in the number of fleas, and may need a third. We shall see. I cleaned household as well at same time to eliminate as much flea leftovers as possible. Don't want to treat again too soon. I'll try another brand next time. However, FAR better than anything else you can buy "off the shelf".
Great Product by MilosMom from New York11/30/2011
We had to move into a house where the people before us had not used any flea control for their many pets. It took us forever to get all the pests out of the house but thanks to Advantage II our cats got not one flea.
That's all you could ever ask for, in my opinion.
Come on girls, it's ADVANTAGE TIME by Pat from New Smyrna Beach, Fl01/23/2012
During the yearsI have taken into my home quite a number of homeless cats and to their absolute delight I introduced them to ADVANTAGE. It's been eight years since I started make them happy and content with not having to deal with those itchy, mean ticks and fleas. It works wonders on them and both the cats and myself are happy customers of "Entirely Pets". Thank you for always shipping the products so quickly to my home.

ADVANTAGE II IS AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT! by dlmi from Maine09/18/2011
I have been using another top brand for years. I won't say the name in case it's not allowed. Last year we added sand to our back lawn to make the ground level for a pool. Without realizing it we were tracking fleas into our home and our 2 cats also were picking up fleas. Oh gosh, I hurried and bought flea spray for the house and our 2 cats were already treated with the top of the line flea dope so I thought we'd get it under control. The cats were getting worse and since they sleep on the end of the bed near my feet I was getting bitten. Time came for another application and I kept treating the house. House was flea free but my 2 cats still were still picking up fleas. Winter came and the flea problem seems to be gone. Well March came around and the cats start scratching and I started scratching, What's going on??? Fleas again. The cats had not been outside. All I can think of is flea eggs must of survived somewhere in our home. basement possibly? To cut the story short I again treated the cats with my old brand and the house with flea spray. Seems to help but the cats were still scratching and I was still finding 3 or 4 on them with the flea comb. So I proceeded to keep treating them once a month and the problem just wasn't going away. I purchased this advantage II applied the evening it arrrived which was extremly fast shipping, and the next morning I was finding dead fleas. JUST wonderful!! Finally something that was working. Either the fleas we have here in Maine are getting stronger or the product I was using changed their fomular. I don't know but I do know I will be using Advantage II from here on out. It had been over a year I was fighting these pesty things and in one night with Advantage II my flea problem is absolutly gone!!! Yeah. Don't ponder over which one to buy. This is it. IT WORKS! And it also says on the box that you may re-apply in 7 days if needed. I did not but if your cats are badly infested you may. You won't find that statement on the other one I was using. Had to wait 30 days before re-applying. I can now sleep in peace thanks to Advantage II and so will you!
Much better than Frontline by Linda M10/28/2011
I have tried many flea products over the years for my kitties but always go back to Advantage. EntirelyPets has the best price of anyone. I will definately be buying from them again.
Advantage for Cats/Order Placed for my Mother by Sherri McGee from Indianapolis, IN10/28/2011
It was NOT clearly marked for "Fleas, Tics, etc." and that is what she truly needed, so now both of us are not going to order online again, as you can not be sure your getting what you ordered.
Another Great Product by Bernie from Pacifica, California12/06/2011
Love this product for my cat. I was using the under 9lbs product until my cat happened to grow over 14 pounds before my eyes! I had to move up to the over 9lbs Advantage and it works wonders just like the lower weight product did. The fleas and eggs just disappear it seems overnight after applying. Thank you for a great product and a great Company that I never have to leave my house to purchase.
Amazing Product by Kel from Virginia11/29/2011
We recently adopted a 4 month old kitten from Petsmart and while her records showed they had treated her for fleas, when we brought her home we realized that she was infested. Having 2 other adult cats that were now itching and scratching, we needed something that would alleviate their discomfort and get rid of the fleas fast. Our vet recommended Advantage II and after applying to both of our Adult cats and using the Advantage Medium cat for our newest feline, all 3 appeared to be flea free within a day. It has been several weeks since we used the product and haven't seen a flea since. Would highly recommend this product, it took care of the problem and did so quickly!

KEY INGREDIENTS
Imidacloprid
Imidacloprid
is an ectoparasiticide, an antiparasitic agent that targets parasites
living primarily on the surface of a host. Chemically classified as a
chloronicotinyl nitroguanidine, imidacloprid inhibits neurotransmitter
transmission in insects, resulting in paralysis and death.
Benefits
Imidacloprid
exhibits both adulticide and larvicidal flea efficacy; it not only
kills adult fleas and larvae on your pet, but it also kills larval
stages in your pet's immediate surroundings.
Main Purpose
To kill fleas at all stages of their life cycles and stop them from being able to move or feed.
Pyriproxyfen
Pyriproxyfen,
the added compound in Advantage II, is a pyridine-based pesticide. A
juvenile hormone analog, it interferes with the hormone signaling of
growing insects, so that insects in immature stages are unable to
mature. Additionally, a female insect that touches the toxin will
produce eggs that will not hatch.
Benefits
Pyriproxyfen
provides an added layer of protection for pets and their surroundings.
It interrupts the flea life cycle at multiple stages, halting the growth
and development of insect eggs and larvae and preventing reinfestation.
Main Purpose
To prevent flea eggs from hatching and larvae from growing.
