Are there side effects from using Advantix for small dogs

We haven’t experienced any! We hold our dog a few minutes until the drops have time to dry ( she tries to wipe it off in her dog bed)

does Advantix require a prescription from the vet?

A prescription is not needed to purchase this flea and tick treatment.

I have two puppies toy poodle 6 and 7 pounds, do I have to keep the separate for 12 hours or any suggestions of what can I do, to be on the safe side. Like maybe keep them separate for 12 hours. Or wearing clothes after the 12 hours or after; what are your suggestions?

Do not allow the dogs to lick any of the application sites and keep separated for 30 minutes.

About This Item

No prescription needed.

How to open:

Be sure tube is at bottom of pouch.
Using scissors, cut the pouch across the top and remove tube.

How to apply:

Use only on dogs.
Remove applicator tube from the package. Use scissors and peel down foil.
Hold applicator tube in an upright position. Pull cap off tube.
Turn the cap around and place other end of cap back on tube.
Twist cap to break seal, then remove cap from tube.
The dog should be standing for easy application. The entire contents of the K9 Advantix II tube should be applied evenly on the top of the back from the shoulder to the base of the tail. At each spot, part the hair until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and gently squeeze to expel a portion of the solution on the skin. Do not apply an excessive amount of solution at any one spot that could cause some of the solution to run off the side of the dog.
Discard empty tube.
In cases of severe pest infestations, retreatment is allowable earlier than 4 weeks. Do not retreat more often than once every 7 days. After pest control is attained, return to a monthly retreatment schedule.

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.
