Provecta Advanced is a 5-way topical parasite treatment for dogs. It kills and repels ticks, all life stages of fleas, and mosquitoes on contact, before they bite. It also repels biting flies and kills chewing lice. It kills fleas on dogs within 12 hours of application.
The fragrance-free, waterproof formula contains the insecticides imidacloprid and permethrin, plus pyriproxyfen, an insect growth regulator. It stays effective after bathing and swimming. One application gives a full month of protection. It works against deer ticks, American dog ticks, brown dog ticks and lone star ticks.
The dog must be dry when the product is applied and stay dry for 24 hours afterward. Part the hair on the dog's back between the shoulder blades until the skin shows. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and squeeze the entire contents onto that one spot. Take care that the product does not run off the side of the dog.
