Is Advantage Multi for Dogs waterproof?
Advantage Multi for Dogs prevents heartworm disease in dogs after a swim or bath, 60 and 90 minutes respectively after application.
How do I apply Advantage Multi for Dogs?
Do not apply to irritated skin.
- Remove one dose applicator tube from the package.
- While holding the tube in an upright position, remove the cap from the tube.
- Turn the cap over and push the other end of the cap onto the tip of the tube.
- Twist the cap to break the seal and then remove cap from the tube.
- The dog should be standing for application. Part the hair on the back of the dog between the shoulder blades until the skin is visible.
For dogs weighing 20 lbs. or less, place the tip of the tube on the skin and apply the entire contents directly on the exposed skin at one spot between the shoulder blades. For dogs weighing more than 20 lbs., place the tip of the tube on the skin and apply the entire contents directly on the exposed skin at 3 or 4 spots on the top of the backline from the base of the neck to the upper back in an area inaccessible to licking. Do not apply an amount of solution at any one location that could run off the side of the dog. Do not let this product get in your dog's mouth or eyes. Do not allow the dog to lick any of the application sites for 30 minutes.
How old does my dog have to be to use Advantage Multi for Dogs?
Advantage Multi for Dogs is for use on puppies at least 7 weeks old and weighing at least 3 pounds.
Does Advantage Multi for Dogs expire?
Advantage Multi for Dogs does have an expiration date that can be found on the bottom edge of the package. Advantage Multi for Dogs should not be used past its expiration date.
When can I bathe my dog after using Advantage Multi for Dogs?
We recommend bathing before applying product. The product can be applied once the pet is towel dried. Shampooing 90 minutes after treatment does not reduce the effectiveness of Advantage Multi for Dogs in the prevention of heartworm disease. Shampooing or water immersion 4 days after treatment does not reduce the effectiveness of Advantage Multi for Dogs in the treatment of flea infestations. However, shampooing as often as once weekly may reduce the effectiveness of the product against fleas. Please use a pet shampoo that is soap-free.
Can my dog go swimming after using Advantage Multi for Dogs?
Yes. A study showed that when dogs went swimming 60 minutes after application, Advantage Multi for Dogs still effectively prevented heartworm disease. A study also showed that swimming 4 days after treatment did not reduce the effectiveness of Advantage Multi for Dogs in the treatment of flea infestations.
When should I put Advantage Multi on my dog?
You should apply Advantage Multi for Dogs monthly (every 30 days), all year-round.
How does Advantage Multi for Dogs work to kill fleas?
Advantage Multi for Dogs is applied to the pet's skin. The active ingredient spreads over your dog's body to kill fleas through contact so they don't have to bite your dog to die.
What if I miss an Advantage Multi for Dogs heartworm treatment?
Life happens. If you forget or miss a dose, simply treat your dog immediately. Advantage Multi for Dogs is heartworm prevention that forgives if you forget. It kills immature heartworms that may already be in your dog and continues to prevent future infection by killing newly acquired baby worms throughout the month. After a single dose, if you forget and go more than 30 days in between treatments, just treat immediately and resume your monthly schedule.
Does Advantage Multi for Dogs kill ticks?
No. Advantage Multi for Dogs provides broad-spectrum protection against heartworms, fleas, roundworms, hookworms, whipworms and the skin parasite sarcoptic mange. If you are concerned about ticks, Bayer has effective products that treat and prevent tick infestations.

Use monthly, year-round, to prevent heartworm disease; kill adult fleas; treat flea infestations; treat and control hookworms, roundworms and whipworms; and treat and control sarcoptic mange.

Great topical solution
By Ashley on Jan 14, 2021
I give both my dogs Adv. Multi because it works well. Applied once a month, my dogs aren’t bothers by it but it does leave a wet/sticky line for a couple days for it to be completely observed.

Better than all the rest!
By MummyOfTubby on Aug 7, 2020
Before Advantage Multi, my dog had only ever been protected by two other multipurpose topicals (each one covered both worms and fleas). However, one summer, there was this really rare parasite of the nose that my dog contracted and the Vet put him on Advantage Multi to kill that nasal parasite. Since then my dog has been protected from heartworm, intestinal worms, fleas AND one very uncommon parasite that isn’t even listed on this box...all while I benefit from the lower price (compared to the competition)!

Not working!!!!!!
By kiminathens77 on Jul 5, 2020
I've been happy with this product for my two pups for a few years now but not anymore. After only two and a half weeks they have fleas. I applied their monthly dose on week three this month. It's been on for 4 days and all dry now. BUT they still have fleas!!! Also had to add Seresto collars, (extra $100 (once product was dry) to help. Still, tons of fleas that I am flea combing off my small pups several times a day. Very disappointed in both products and wish I didn't spend over $200 on both!!!! Fyi, I have also treated my house and yard several times just in case. BUT these products should be working and not allowing fleas to live on my babies!!!! VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!
