Is Bravecto for cats a good treatment option for rabbit scabies?

The medication works by being absorbed in the skin, so it will not be very effective if it's only on the fur. However, it's possible that enough got on the skin to be effective. I recommend just leaving it for now and only giving another treatment if it is not effective at keeping fleas and ticks off of Tikvichko for 12 weeks. If you have to give another treatment within the 12 weeks, then I recommend using a different product such as Frontline to avoid a possible overdose of the Bravector (fluralaner). Your vet can help you with a good choice of a different product if needed. I hope that helps and all is well with Tikvichko.

It's fine to go ahead and start the bravecto. I would also recommend being aware that it's possible fleas are in the environment (outside or in your house) and treatment may be required there to clear up the issue. And make sure you're treating all the animals in the house, not just the ones you see fleas on. Good luck with this frustrating issue!!

Hi there. Yes, Bravecto is an excellent product - it's extremely safe, and very effective. It's the main flea medication that we use at my clinics, and what I am currently using for my own three dogs. In terms of side effects, we occasionally have clients report some mild lethargy or stomach upset for a day or two after giving it, but most dogs have no side effects at all. Nexgard or Credelio would also be reasonable choices.

There are not specific products for rabbits. Only certain cat products can be used on rabbits and it requires precise dosing based upon the body weight. Speak with your veterinarian before starting any flea products on Bean Sprout. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

It's unlikely to be an allergic reaction but chewable bravecto is for DOGS only, for cats bravecto is in spot on form, if your vet prescribed the tablet i do not know what could be the side effects, you should talk to the vet that prescribed it.

Flea treatment shouldn't cause too much more irritation to the skin, especially since it is mostly given just at the base of the head and no where else, if properly administered. I would recommend Revolution topical (Rx), because in my opinion it is the most effective and reliable treatment for fleas in cats. If Oliver has an overabundance of fleas on him and you need extra protection, then I would recommend giving him a Capstar (Nitenpyram) tablet 1 hr before applying the Revolution as a fast acting flea killer to reduce the flea load. Capstar kills all fleas on pets within 45 minutes after giving, then the Revolution is there to prevent further fleas from bothering him.

Bravecto last for three months, but I prefer using a monthly topical treatment personally. That's because it can be reapplied after two weeks at the earliest if needed, while you would need to wait longer to give your pet Bravecto again.
