Keep
your dog safe from irritating and dangerous pests with K9 Advantix II
for Medium Dogs weighing 11-20 pounds. Formulated for dogs seven weeks of age and older and
weighing 11-20 pounds , K9 Advantix II outperforms its competitors
not only by killing more varieties of pests, but also by repelling them
to prevent future attacks.
Repels and Kills Ticks, Fleas, and Mosquitos
The
active ingredients in K9 Advantix II help keep your dog safe from
ticks, fleas, and mosquitoes. These effective compounds attack the
pests' nerve cells, paralyzing and effectively killing them, as well as
repelling them from future attacks. Most ticks are repelled and killed
before they can attach, which may reduce the risk of transmitting
disease-causing organisms to your pet. K9 Advantix II effectively kills
and repels Deer ticks, American dog ticks, Brown dog ticks, and Lone
Star ticks.
K9
Advantix II protects your pet against fleas at all stages of the
parasite's development. K9 Advantix II breaks the flea life cycle by
killing the living fleas on your dog before they can lay eggs. It also
prevents the development of existing flea eggs, larvae, and pupae,
helping to prevent future infestations.
K9
Advantix II also kills reinfesting fleas (newly hatched fleas jumping
back on your dog) within two hours, and it prevents fleas on a treated
dog from infesting your home.
Effective Against Biting Flies and Lice
In
addition to complete tick, flea, and mosquito protection, K9 Advantix
II also repels painful biting flies from feeding on your dog, and it
effectively kills up to 100 percent of lice within one week of
treatment.
Waterproof Formula
K9
Advantix II is waterproof, so there's no need to reapply after your dog
has a bath or goes for a swim. Studies show that dogs are still
protected against parasites after exposure to water, though for best
results, dogs treated with K9 Advantix II should be bathed with a
non-detergent shampoo.

Applying
K9 Advantix II to your pet is a fast and easy process. First, remove
the K9 Advantix II 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.
For
easiest application, your dog should be standing upright. Evenly apply
the entire contents of the K9 Advantix II tube to two or three spots
from the back of the shoulder to the base of the tail. Part the hair at
each spot until the skin is visible, then place the tip of the tube on
the skin and gently squeeze out a portion of the solution. Be careful
not to apply an excessive amount of the solution in any one spot,
otherwise some of the solution might run off the side of your dog.
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 K9 Advantix II every
month. K9 Advantix II is available in four- and six-month supplies. Do
not use K9 Advantix II on cats or any animals other than dogs.
Application Instructions
Evenly
apply the entire contents of the tube to four to six spots on the top
of the back--from the shoulder to the base of the tail. Apply monthly.
Length of Effectiveness
Under
normal conditions, the product 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 seven days.
After flea control is attained, return to a monthly retreatment
schedule.

How long does K9 Advantix last?
A single application of K9 Advantix keeps working for one month.
How often should I use K9 Advantix?
Experts recommend monthly application to keep your dog protected year-round.
My dog is strictly indoors. Should I still use K9 Advantix?
Yes,
ticks and fleas can be brought into the home by people or other
pets--without owners even realizing it. Immature flea stages remain
dormant until conditions are appropriate for development. This is why it
is also important to protect indoor pets.
Can I bathe my dog during the month after application?
Yes, you can give your dog a bath. A non-detergent shampoo is recommended for best results.
How young can the dog be for application?
K9 Advantix is gentle enough for puppies as young as seven weeks.
The fleas aren't so bad this year (it's dry) but my dog can pick up fleas from visits to the dog park. I got the K9 Advantix (it works well on the cats) because I knew it would work.

Great Product by MaddysMom from NY11/30/2011
I use this on my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and have not found one flea on her, even after going through wooded areas or being exposed to other animals with fleas. I am very satisfied with it's performance, especially in the summer time when she swims very often. No problems between applications.
K9 ADVANTIX II by Love My Dogs! from Cincinnati, Ohio10/21/2011
I have 2 dogs - a Japenese Chin that is 7 years old and a 4 year old rescued Shih- tzu who are my Buddies, I never want them to suffer from fleas irritating and biting. I've tried cheaper brands in the past and will never go back ----K9 ADVANTIX II is the best------Never seen a single flea on my Buddies!
do not buy! by missy from California09/20/2011
I have used Frontline successfully on my dog, but decided to try the K9 Advantix II due to mosquitoes and flies being prevalent this summer.
I followed instructions carefully. Soon after administering within the hour i could see my dog was uncomfortable. After 2 he was twitching and running into places in our home he does not normally go. I called the hotline on the box Bayer, and they told me to wash off the areas and to do it a few times. Then to apply vitamin E to those areas. My poor doggie was still very uncomfortable and trembling unable to relax that entire day. As well into the next day. I checked online on this product and found more problems worse then what we experienced with use of K9 Advantix II. My dog is about 40 lb.'s and only 4 years old and healthy. He is a poodle bichon mix. Please if you have not used this product. Dont try it!
Never Disappointed by Sheri10/10/2011
I buy Advantix 11 for all my animals. I save alot of money buying it this way. It can be very expensive since I have four dogs and a cat. Its fast shipment and its easy to purchase.
not sure about new formula by cee from southern Indiana04/24/2012
I have used the original Advantix and Frontline Plus without a problem. I used the Advantix 2 and first of all, the formula seems oiler than usual. I have long haired dogs and the formula never seems to absorb even though I part the hair & apply to skin. Secondly, two of my dogs had attached ticks within 2 weeks. Not sure if this is as good as original.
Good Buy by aj from PA12/01/2011
Always arrives quickly, the box is always smashed, but the product inside is fine.
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.
Permethrin
Permethrin
is the additional ingredient in Advantix. It belongs to the Type I
class of pyrethroid acaricides and insecticides, and it also acts as a
repellent. Pyrethroids affect muscle and nerve cells' sodium ion
channels by increasing their mean open time, which leads to
hyperexcitability and death of the parasite.
Benefits
Thanks to its repelling activity, permethrin reduces parasite bites and thus the risk of diseases and stress for your dog.
Main Purpose
To repel ticks, sand flies, and mosquitoes; to kill ticks and fleas.
Two Proven Ingredients with Enhanced Activity
Imidacloprid
and permethrin work together to overwhelm the nervous system of the
parasite, providing neurotoxic activity beyond that of each compound
alone. This leads to more profound and quicker insect paralysis and
death.
Specifically,
imidacloprid increases the efficacy of permethrin by activating insect
nerve cells and increasing the frequency of neurotransmissions. As a
result, more sodium channels are opened and the pyrethroid can interact
much better with its target site.
Pyriproxyfen
Pyriproxyfen
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.
