What to Know About Flea and Tick Collars

Flea collars work by either emitting a pesticide into the area around your pet, or releasing one that is absorbed by your pet's skin. There are also chemical-free, water-resistant and odorless varieties. The collar should be worn based on the manufacturer's instructions. You can also find options for pups who may already be infected by fleas. Be sure to review product details and chat with your veterinarian to find the best flea and tick collar for your pup’s specific needs. Depending on the option you choose, some flea and tick collars remain effective for several months, meaning you won’t have to apply monthly treatment.
