Tell uninvited to guests to “bug off” with the Hartz UltraGuard Flea & Tick Collar for Cats. A convenient alternative to topical flea applications, this collar starts working fast to kill and repel fleas and ticks. It also prevents flea eggs from hatching, which stops the flea cycle by preventing re-infestation. And as an added bonus, the breakaway design easily comes off in the event your cat gets caught on something, so you never have to worry about him choking or getting trapped. The best part? It works for seven long months, even if it gets wet, so you can go worry-free for more than half a year.

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.

HORRIBLE product! Within a week and a half both of my cats had their fur literally eaten off by this product!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! Chewy worked with me to refund the cost of the product and also a discount on medicine to take care of the skin irritation. My cats smell horrible right now, I'm hoping the skin will be okay until the fur grows back in. I am just devastated. We started them on a topical flea and tick treatment yesterday, here is hoping there are no side effects.
I never write reviews so, take that how you will — my cats have been infested with fleas for a while now and this collar didn’t do anything. Maybe for a short while. But it didn’t work Long term (or even through a month). Not worth it, I promise! My cats are still covered & I’m honestly, frantically trying to find something that will work. I promise you these don’t.
I've had the collar on both cats for two weeks now and they're still scratching their necks just as hard. The collars do not seem to be working.
All 4 of my adult cats have chemical burns from these collars. I was only able to take one photo. The others won't let me near their necks:-(
If I could give this product zero stars I would! The experience I had was absolutely horrible and terrifying. I got this product because it was not as strong as some other collars I have found but that is honestly not the case. I had gotten this product for my cat for a vacation where the fleas and ticks pretty bad. The first week of him wearing the collar was fine nothing strange but as soon as the second week started he started to act out of i, not wanting to eat and then finally a none stop pacing that would only stop if me or my bout would hold him. He started to act as if he was highly drugged and at 4 in the morning I found him staring at the floor in the bathroom not wanting to move. I immediately took the collar off and gave him a bath which help a little because he at again. But that following evening it became worse again with him peeing twice and throwing up, I was able to get him into the emergency vet. He told me that the active ingredient tetrachlorvinphos is used to kill corn worms and highly poisonous to cats and dogs and can give humans cancer. He thankfully had a antidote he gave my cat and told me to give him up to two more baths with dawn soap. I can do thankfully and lucky I did not loose my sweet boy buddy due to this product. Please please please take to your vet about flea and tick medicine don’t go of the internet on reviews. This was a lesson well learned.
I have been using this flea collar for awhile now and I haven’t seen any fleas at all on both of my cats
Found the product to be ineffective. It doesn't even drive the fleas to a different part of the body. You just have an extra collar to move out of the way to comb off the fleas.
i only gave it 2 stars is because it made my cat sick, shes ok now, probably work on other cats
The fleas were literally under the collar around my (indoor) cats neck, it's more like it attracted them than repelled them
Lasted like a month then stopped working cat got fleas around her neck again
