This solved problems quickly. After a very dry summer, the fleas were horrible. My stepbrother brought their farm dog, which was covered in fleas. We ended up with an infestation. They were even biting us. I started treating the house with as many things as I could safely around a new puppy thankfully, I was able to give this to the puppy and to my senior. It took me a little over a month and a half. Between the collar, the pills and the drops on the back of the neck we finally have this fully under control. But I believe quickly with all I am the bills help the most. I didn’t give them every day. I did give them about every 3 to 4 days which seemed to help.

Zero stars wasn’t an option. Worthless product. Total waste of money.

Deceptive?..... Just asking Capstar Flea Tablets for Dogs 2-25 lbs (Count of 12) $49.98 reg $90 Petco.com Why does your search results say this price and then really charge 69.98 ? Free by 8/2

    Can this be used if you have already applied frontline on Sunday but it was before fleas? There were none before he was just due for his monthly application but I recently may have found one on his neck.

    1. Yes it will kill the fleas fast



    How does it last after giving the pill to my Bengal cat ??

    1. I think it only lasts a day. Maybe two. It just kills all the fleas on the animal, in about an hour or so, I believe. But the mfg. claims it an be given daily.



    What does the pill look like and what kind of markings will be on it?

      Does this do anything with flea eggs or just live fleas?

      1. It only kills live fleas, but it works very quickly...about 1/2 hour and anything on the animal is dead. You will still have to treat the environment.



      This Capstar flea tablets for dogs AND cats...how is it different from Capstar for cats only? It's cheaper; but what about the components?

        My cat has scratches or bitten fur on her tail will capstar flea control help

          I have 3 cats. How many should each cat take for this treatment to be effective?

          1. 1 each. It works for 24 hrs. If you seen anymore after 24 hrs give them another pill. I've given my cats 1 each day while cleaning my entire house to make sure that they are no eggs or larvae left on the floors, furniture or in the carpet that can hatch and recreate more fleas to tackle. It worked out well for me. I hope this helps.



          How often do you use these? Monthly? Weekly?

          1. As needed. No more than 1x in a 24 he period.



          can you use capstar as well as a topical product such as zodiac or k9advantage 11 for dogs and a topical product for cats?

          1. This is a "short term" solution to help with infestation to get them off the dog or cat. You must still clean the pets bedding and if they are inside pets, you must also treat carpets or set off bug bombs in the case of large infestations. You should also give the dog or cat a monthly dose of your choice of flea treatment. This product is for getting rid of the "live" fleas immediately.
