FrontPro: Easy, Chewable Flea & Tick Protection for Your Dog
As a loving dog owner, you want to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. The threat of fleas and ticks can be a constant worry, not just for your pet but for your home too. These tiny parasites can cause a lot of irritation and can be a real nuisance. The good news is that protecting your dog doesn't have to be a complicated task.
FrontPro is a simple, effective solution that takes the hassle out of flea and tick treatment. It’s a fast-acting, beef-flavoured chewable tablet designed to give your dog a full month of protection. With just one tablet, you can help protect your pet and your home from these unwanted guests.
What is FrontPro and How Does It Work?
FrontPro is a chewable tablet that contains the active ingredient afoxalaner. Afoxolaner is an ectoparasiticide, it works by causing uncontrolled central nervous system activity, leading to the death of insects and mites. Afoxolaner is effective against adult fleas and various tick species, including Dermacentor reticulatus, D. variabilis, Ixodes ricinus, I. scapularis, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Amblyomma americanum, and Haemaphysalis longicornis.
Once your dog takes the tablet, the afoxalaner is absorbed and begins to circulate in their bloodstream. When a flea or tick bites your dog, the active substance gets to work, disrupting the parasites' nervous system. The result is rapid, effective relief. FrontPro starts to kill fleas within just 8 hours and ticks within 48 hours. This rapid action is crucial, as it helps kill fleas before they have a chance to lay eggs, which helps prevent a home infestation from taking hold.
Is FrontPro Right for Your Dog?
FrontPro is a safe and convenient treatment specifically for dogs. It's suitable for puppies from 8 weeks of age and weighing at least 2 kg. To ensure your dog gets the correct dosage, FrontPro is available in four sizes based on your dog's weight:
Small (2-4 kg)
Medium (>4-10 kg)
Large (>10-25 kg)
Extra Large (>25-50 kg)
If your dog weighs over 50 kg, you can use an appropriate combination of tablets of different or same strengths, body weight should be accurately determined before use. It’s important to remember that these tablets should not to be divided. FrontPro is also suitable for breeding, pregnant, or lactating female dogs, giving you peace of mind that their protection can continue.
How to Give Your Dog FrontPro
Giving your dog their monthly dose of FrontPro couldn't be easier. The tablet is palatable and beef-flavoured, which most dogs find very appealing. You can simply offer it to your dog as a treat, with or without food. It’s important to make sure your dog eats the entire tablet to get the full benefit of the treatment. For continuous protection, simply administer a new tablet every month throughout the flea and tick season.
Important Safety Information & Best Practices
As with any medication, it's important to use FrontPro correctly. Please remember that parasites must attach to your dog and begin feeding to be exposed to the active substance, so the risk of disease transmission from a bite can't be completely excluded. This product is for animal use only and may be harmful to humans if ingested, so be sure to wash your hands after handling the tablets.
