DESCRIPTION: Advantage (imidacloprid) is a monthly, topical flea preventative available for dogs and cats. Advantage does not kill ticks. The active ingredient is imidacloprid, which acts on the nervous system of the flea to cause paralysis and subsequent death. Within 12 hours of application, 98-100 percent of fleas are dead. Advantage kills fleas before they lay eggs, so their life cycle is broken at multiple stages. It also kills flea larvae within 20 minutes of contact.
