Did you know Fleas are one of the MOST common external parasites in dogs and cats!
Adult fleas are red-brown in color while flea droppings are tiny black particles: either can be seen on a heavily infested pet. Most fleas and droppings can be actually difficult to find if your pet grooms meticulously. The first sign of an infestation may be persistent scratching, skin irritation or hair loss.
In order to treat fleas, both adult and immature fleas must be controlled. Ask us about Frontline Plus, Advantage Multi and Capstar to help STOMP OUT fleas!
