Adams Plus Flea & Tick Spot On for Dogs works by application directly to the dog’s/puppy’s skin, not to the hair. When applying, manually push aside dog’s/puppy’s hair to allow direct application to the skin.
Note: Each package contains tubes for 3 applications.
To apply the Adams Plus Flea & Tick Spot On for Dogs treatment, use one disposable liquid tube for each application.
- Bend at perforation and tear off first tube.
- Hold tube upright and snap tip back, away from face and body.
- The dog/puppy should be standing for easy application. Apply Adams Plus Flea & Tick Spot On for Dogs evenly to four or five spots on the top of the back from the shoulder to the base of the tail. At each spot, part the hair until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and gently squeeze to expel a portion of the solution on the skin. Do not apply an excessive amount of the solution at any one spot that could cause some of the solution to run off the side of the dog/puppy.
- Do not spread Adams Plus Flea & Tick Spot On for Dogs by hand over the dog/puppy. Although the dog’s/puppy’s skin and hair oils will distribute the application over the entire dog/puppy, brushing the dog/puppy 12-24 hours after application will help to distribute the material over the skin.
- Discard empty tube as described in Storage and Disposal.
Important Information
Fleas rise to the top of your pet's coat as they die, so consider it a triumph if you start seeing more fleas at first, after treating your pet. If you’re still seeing fleas after application, it may be because your pet has picked up new fleas from the environment, which may include other pets, surfaces and outdoor areas. It may take up to 30 days to break the entire flea life cycle. Additionally, you should also treat sources of new fleas (i.e., carpet, yard, etc.) to ensure complete flea control.
