- How does it compare with Frontline?
- Both use fipronil as the active ingredient. PetArmor is the lower-cost version; Frontline has more published trial data and a wider range of package sizes.
- Is it safe for puppies?
- No. It is labeled for dogs 8 weeks and older. Puppies under that age, or under the minimum weight on the label, need a product made for them.
- How often do I apply it?
- Once a month. Apply to dry skin between the shoulder blades and keep the dog from licking the spot until it dries.
- Can I bathe my dog after applying it?
- Wait at least 24 to 48 hours before bathing, and use a gentle shampoo. Frequent bathing or swimming shortens how long protection lasts.
- Does it kill ticks too?
- Yes, it is labeled for fleas, ticks and chewing lice. Check the dog after walks in tall grass, since ticks can still attach before they die.
- What is in the box?
- Three single-dose applicator tubes for small dogs, plus the package insert. One tube per month.
