Scratchex® Dog Stripe-On® Flea and Tick Control contains both an insecticide (permethrin) to kill and repel adult fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes, AND a long lasting insect growth regulator (Nylar® ) to prevent flea eggs and larvae from developing into biting adults. It has activity against BOTH adult fleas and flea eggs, as well as ticks and mosquitoes, all in an easy to apply, spot-on dispenser.

It is possible that many long haired dogs are getting hives and we as owners and veterinarians never see them because they are covered. Even a small bump on a boxer body will show up easily because of the short and shiny coat.

Bio Spot for Dogs kills and repels fleas, ticks, and mosquitos. Test results show that 92% of adult fleas are controlled within 24 hours of application, with control rising to nearly 100% within a few days. Bio Spot for Dogs kills and repels adult fleas, brown dog ticks, and American dog ticks for up to four weeks. It kills and repels deer ticks (carrier of Lyme disease) for up to four weeks. It prevents blood feeding by mosquitoes (vector of heartworm) for up to four weeks.

Bio Spot for Dogs comes in convenient 1 and 3 month packaging. Holding tube with notched end pointing up and away from face and body, snap off narrow end of tube at notches. Invert tube over dog and use open end to part dog's hair, squeeze tube firmly to apply all of the solution to the dog's skin.

It is recommended that Bio Spot be applied monthly. If you live in an area where ticks and mosquitoes may also potentially be biting your dog, Bio Spot for Dogs may be reapplied as often as once every three weeks for maximum protection, or after shampooing your dog.

You need to bath either coated dog about once a month. Depending on the thickness of the long coat, you will have to brush them too. I brush Sonja once a week for instance, and only brush T Kis about once every 4 months, and she hardly has any knots. They only need to be brushed, and do not need to have their hair trimed like other long coat breeds do. You can do it all at home in 5 minutes.

Other spot-on products kill only one life stage. Bio Spot for Dogs kills flea eggs, larvae, and adults. Since the eggs are killed, fleas will not develop into biting adults and the life cycle is broken.

The ingredients in Bio Spot for Dogs dissolve into the natural oily layers of your dog's coat and skin. They move around your dog's coat by several processes including diffusion and capillary action, and transfer from hair to hair as your pet moves. Efficacy trials show that Bio Spot for Dogs spreads quickly enough through a dog's coat to produce 92% control of adult fleas within the first 24 hours following application.

Bio Spot for Dogs is a concentrated formula. It contains 50% active ingredients in a handy "spot on" application method, rather than nearly all water or other carriers as in dips and sprays. Bio Spot for Dogs' ingredients move through the lipid (oily) coating of your dog's coat and skin surface to kill and repel fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes.

Unlike dogs, cats and ferrets tend to be sensitive to permethrin at the dosage level found in Bio Spot for Dogs. DO NOT USE BIO SPOT FLEA & TICK CONTROL FOR DOGS ON CATS OR FERRETS or animals other than dogs. Cats which actively groom (lick) or engage in close physical contact with recently treated dogs may be at risk of toxic exposure. Nearly all dogs tolerate Bio Spot for Dogs well.

Bio Spot for Dogs is not a cholinesterase inhibitor, so it is not expected to increase the toxicity of cholinesterase inhibiting pesticides. But, as with all on-animal insecticides, it is advisable to consult a veterinarian before using this product with any other pesticide or drug. Bio Spot for Dogs should be used as part of a program aimed at reducing flea populations in the dog's environment (bedding, carpets, kennel, yard). Consult your retailer for program recommendations.

Soaps wash away part of the natural oils on your dog's coat and skin and will also remove some of Bio Spot's active ingredients, thus reducing efficacy. Bio Guard® Shampoo from Farnam has been developed to wash up your pet without washing out his flea control protection.

Bathing your dog is not required before applying Bio Spot for Dogs. However, because bathing removes some of Bio Spot for Dogs' active ingredients, bathing your dog before treatment is preferable to bathing your dog soon after treatment.

Yes, Bio Spot for Dogs may be used any time of the year that your dog needs protection from fleas, ticks, or mosquitoes. Applying Bio Spot for Dogs to your dog in late winter is an excellent way to prevent fleas from infesting your house in the spring.

with all flea and tick control products, Bio Spot for Dogs should be used as part of a program aimed at reducing flea populations in your dog's environment (bedding, carpets, kennel, yard).

Bio Spot for Dogs should not be used on sick, aged, medicated, pregnant, or nursing dogs without consulting a veterinarian.

NO! Unlike dogs, cats do not tolerate high concentrations of permethrin. Do not treat cats or animals other than dogs with Bio Spot Flea & Tick Control for Dogs. Unlike natural pyrethrins and some insect growth regulators, permethrin and Nylar exhibit good photostability and are only minimally affected by sunlight.
