Important Information
Fleas rise to the top of your pet's coat as they die, so consider it a triumph if you start seeing more fleas at first, after treating your pet. If you’re still seeing fleas after application, it may be because your pet has picked up new fleas from the environment, which may include other pets, surfaces and outdoor areas. It may take up to 30 days to break the entire flea life cycle. Additionally, you should also treat sources of new fleas (i.e., carpet, yard, etc.) to ensure complete flea control.

Easy and Effective
By Franklin on Jan 22, 2021
Obviously we don't look forward to flea season and take the necessary precautions but every once in a while our furbaby brings them home. I enjoy using the Adams shampoo when this happens so I can not only inspect his coat while bathing him, wash him, and see those nasty things go down the drain. Hopefully we won't have to use this again any time soon, but we will keep a bottle on hand as a precaution! I received CashBack on this purchase by participating in a CashBack program and providing my honest review.

so far love it
By catmom on Dec 17, 2020
Not only did it come fast in the mail, but my poor cat has had ZERO luck with topical flea treatments, and the flea color he had (which was a break away Coller) helped some. I gave him a bath using this soap, lathered him up and rubbed it over him good for 5 minutes. And within minutes fleas where coming to the top of his coat and were dying fast. Rinsed his coat felt very clean. I took him out, dried him off. I gave him a few treats for being a good kitty as he normally is. Then I combed him with a comb I also ordered on here for fleas, and they were getting caught in the comb like they should, but they were also dead, if not totally dead Barely alive after ONE SHAMPOO!!!!

He is an indoor cat no clue how he even got fleas we have no other pets, but none the less, I’m BEYOND satisfied with this so far!!!!! I would at this point 10/10 recommend!! Especially if you’ve tried other things and you don’t have the money to keep spending on products that don’t work!! This product so far does! … more

Works Great!
By DogLady on Jan 13, 2021
I have used this item in the past and cannot say I have any complaints. Unless they recently changed the formula, especially for this price, you can't go wrong. I will be using this in the summer when my pets need it most so won't crack this open for a while. Bought this item as part of a CashBack campaign.

best flea product
By quirkybibliophile on Dec 13, 2020
My dog always has fleas in the summer and its frustrating to get them all out of her. I've tried so many different shampoos and sprays and nothing works. I was so happy with this product, it was easy to use and didn't dry out her skin like most flea products do. she wasn't left itchy once she came out of the bath and days after her fur is still soft and clean. I am receiving cashback and am participating in a cashback program.

Good stuff!
By ToriJ on Dec 21, 2020
The animal shelter I volunteer at uses this shampoo for all the dogs and cats there, and there’s never any fleas in the facility! I really think this stuff works for prevention and on-the-spot use. I even started using this shampoo for my dog at home and have had no issues with her sensitive skin or fleas/ticks. I highly recommend this product, especially for the price.

Works Great!
By Smichelle on Dec 14, 2020
Adams Flea and Tick Shampoo is the best I've found so far. It does exactly what it says it will. We have used this on all of our dogs and it kills the fleas immediately and also keeps them away. The best part is it smells good not chemically like others I've used. This review is part of a CashBack program where I received cash back for this item.

Better safe than sorry
By CallMeMrsGallego on Dec 20, 2020
I always like to keep flea prevention products on hand even though my pups have regular vet visits and vaccines because you never know what they may encounter at the dog park, especially living in a warm state like Texas. This shampoo helps get rid of any fleas, ticks, and larva that they may bring home before they start spreading

Works for my dog
By Steph on Dec 22, 2020
My dog always has fleas or something. I randomly see her flinch and bite herself. I'm always searching for new things to get for her cause I love my dog so much! I try to look for more natural options, but sometimes it's not enough. This definitely does the job.

Will never change this shampoo
By Emelin on Oct 13, 2020
This saved my cats from being eaten alive by fleas. I rescued my first cat when she was barely 4 days old, and was COVERED IN FLEAS!! Imagine a small little thing, with so many icky bugs crawling on her. I washed her with dawn soap since you can’t wash them that young with this shampoo. I thought i got all of them off but by the time she was 6 weeks, i noticed she was scratching (she’s an indoor cat only so i thought it was weird). Turns out she had a couple of fleas, decided to try this shampoo, diluted it in water first (because she was young at the time), gave her bath. Let a week past by, gave her another bath. NO MORE FLEAS AT ALL!! And it didn’t harm her at all. She’s now 6months and i This saved my cats from being eaten alive by fleas.

It is a SHAMPOO not a medical treatment. My cats have no fleas thanks to this product AND the fact i give them baths every 2 weeks. Now both of my cats use this shampoo plus my 6 year old boxer dog. It’s THT GOOD! … more

My dog and I love it
By Morgan on Dec 19, 2020
Flea and tick shampoo is great to keep the pests off and not need to put oily products on their fur. It’s easy to use, just use when bathing and they’re all set. I received this product for free for review.
