Can I apply Seresto flea collar on dogs with sensitive skin after bath?

Giving Sentinel or Capstar will not interact with the Seresto collars, so you do not need to take them off before giving those medications. It will take a little time (a couple of days) for the collars to start working again while the medication spreads from the collar onto their skin, so go ahead and put them back on. If you are still having problems with fleas, be sure to talk to your veterinarian. And if the fleas are gone, but the itching continues, you may need to talk to your veterinarian about options for that. Good luck! I hope that was helpful!

Seresto collars are water-resitant, so they remain effective following a bath (with or without shampoo treatment), or even after your dog goes for a swim. Therefore, there is no need to remove the collar for bathing. However, using a gentle, soap-free pet shampoo is recommend. Under normal conditions, the collar's effectiveness should last for 8 months. In order to make sure it lasts this long, you shouldn't bathe your dog more than once per month.

You will need to go to the Seresto website. There may be recommendations about bathing or drying times. You may need to remove the collar for a certain amount of time. Certainly you want to avoid any potential interactions, you will need to ingredients of the shampoo handy. Best of luck.

Yes, you can absolutely place the Seresto collar on Figgy after a flea and tick bath. If you are still seeing live fleas, it may also be worth giving him a dose of Capstar, which will kill the adult fleas quickly, providing a bit of relief. The Seresto collar will then be able to provide more lasting flea prevention. I hope this helps and that all goes well!

Wait about two weeks before putting the Seresto Collar on Oliver. Then it should be fine, In the meantime, check him every day for ticks and when you find a tick, remove it. This should tide you over until you can put the collar on him. Don't forget to vacuum your house often and put flea powder in the vacuum cleaner bag so the vacuumed up flea eggs and larvae will get killed. Make sure you vacuum all areas Oliver has access to.

The Seresto collar works by using a slow, continuous release of medication onto the skin and fur - so as soon as you remove it, the level of medication on Prada's skin will immediately start to drop. The active ingredient (imidicloprid) also has a very high margin of safety in dogs, so it should be fine to go ahead and apply Advantage the same day that you remove the collar.

It is ok to use Seresto along with other topical products, just not oral ones. In some pets there can be a little skin irritation, so watch out for that and notify your vet if this happens. Otherwise, you should be fine to go ahead with Seresto to see if this does the trick. I would also recommend using a flea fogger to treat your home, which can be found at your local Home Depot or Lowe's. If you still don't have good results with the Seresto collar, then I would wait at least 2 weeks and consider better products such as Simparica or Nexgard. Best of luck with your flea issue and Nova moving forward. Take care!
