Product Description
Apex Plus delivers professional-grade flea and tick protection for dogs and puppies over 8 weeks of age. Powered by the same dual-action formula trusted by veterinarians — Fipronil combined with the insect growth regulator (S)-methoprene — Apex Plus doesn't just kill adult fleas and ticks, it breaks the flea life cycle entirely by targeting eggs, larvae, and pupae as well. The result is faster, more complete elimination of infestations and more effective long-term prevention.
A single monthly application provides 30 days of continuous protection against fleas, ticks, and chewing lice. Apex Plus becomes waterproof just 24 hours after application, so your dog stays protected through baths, swimming, and rain. The topical solution is distributed evenly across the body via natural skin oils, requiring no special equipment or precise spot placement.
Available in four weight-specific formulations to ensure your dog receives the precisely calibrated dose for their size. Safe for year-round use.
