We usually use this brand to wash our two dogs and have been happy with it, so we decided to try the flea and tick shampoo. It does a good job of getting the dogs clean, but doesn't do anything for fleas. We followed the directions, treated the yard and flea bombed the house and within one day, the fleas on the dogs were worse than ever. We were very disappointed. One of our dogs is easy to bathe (pit bull mix), but the other is a 2 to 3 hour project (Newfoundland). In the end, we went back to the flea shampoo that my family always used. I don't like using it on the Newf since he has sensitive skin, but the short term skin irritation from the shampoo is better than the long term irritation from the fleas.

I used the spray, then the shampoo to get rid of fleas. And it worked in one application! It actually smelled nice too. Great product. Highly recommend.

Warm water soak before! 8.5 min duration used, wash hand(s) after applying, with minimal skin contact as possible. I got a minor chemical burn before from a different soap so switched to this one and less harsh smell. shower method used, not bath. Smell was amazing but still potent so have air running/open window. The fleas kept falling off and so many eggs. If your dog is a scrambler I suggest a prong collar or gentle leader/favorite treat method. Healthy habits for your puppy (I call all dogs puppies). My dog just chills now for showers but still doesn’t like them lol. My dog is still scratching because he was infested for months and our vet told us they didn’t find any. So I will be reapplying, while decontaminating my home and buying simparica trio for my GSD. Nexgard worked too before we switched him to credelio but that didn’t work on our puppy.

I bought this a month ago and I was very satisfied with the product. Smells and cleans great,fresh smell.

This is the only place I found where I can let people know this does not work to get rid of fleas. I don't know how it can even be marketed as a flea shampoo. I washed my dog with it twice a week apart and still see fleas crawling around on him. I'm just using it between gel treatments but it seems like nothing but a regular dog shampoo.

I noticed a flea on my Cockapoo and purchase this an hour later. I was unsure how this shampoo would do because of some mixed reviews so I purchased another shampoo as back up. I'm sure they are different types of fleas and maybe this doesn't work on other types but in Northern Nevada, these fleas are killed on contact. I was amazed at how many it killed. Cockapoos have a lot of fur and with it being winter she does have a longer coat. I used a lot of product (probably more than was necessary), lathered the shampoo as much as possible, massaged it while I let it sit for about 10 minutes. The instructions stated 5-7 minutes but I wanted these things gone. I made sure to cover every area including her private parts, under her ears, chin (avoiding her eyes) and her underside. It was disgusting how many of them (dead) were falling off of her while I rinsed her especially on her underside. I also purchased a flea comb and used it to remove any remaining ones while my dog's fur was still wet. It seemed to work better removing them with the comb before I dried her fur. I highly recommend this flea shampoo. If you're unsure, make the purchase anyways. You won't regret it!

Kills most fleas 1st bath, I gave my dog another flea bath w this product a week after. Works well killed the remaining few. Will buy again and will be my go to shampoo even if dogs don’t have fleas.

It works! Follow the instructions and leave it on for the time suggested before washing it off.
