Is Revolt the same as Revolution for Dogs?

It uses the same active ingredient, selamectin, and covers the same parasites. The formulation is a generic alternative, not the brand-name product.

Does Revolt protect against ticks?

No. It covers fleas, heartworm, ear mites, sarcoptic mange and certain intestinal worms, but not ticks.

How often do I apply it?

Once a month. Apply it to the skin between the shoulder blades so the dog cannot lick it off.

Can I bathe my dog after applying it?

The formula is waterproof once it has dried. Wait until the application site is dry before bathing or letting the dog swim.

How old does a dog need to be?

It is labeled for dogs 6 weeks of age and older.

Can I use it on my cat?

This version is for dogs. Cats need a product labeled for cats, and selamectin dosing differs by weight and species.
