Advantix flea products are a great way to help rid your dogs of fleas and as your best friend's owner its highly important to make sure that you take the time and effort to do so and to ensure your pet is healthy and happy. Fleas are one of the most common pests that can affect your dogs and when they set in they can have many unfortunate side effects. You will probably notice for instance that your dog is uncomfortable and that they start itching and scratching a lot. You might notice that they struggle to sit down and get comfortable and they may in particular spend a lot of time scratching behind their ears.
At the same time these fleas will be irritating your dog's skin so you can expect to see this deteriorate the quality of their skin. If they once had great looking skin and shiny glossy hair, then they may now have dry and damaged looking skin and bald patches. This can be exacerbated by the scratching and the combination may cause bleeding and other issues.
Because of all this you will also find that your dog is generally less lively and well than normal. Their immune system will be under attack and they won't be as comfortable and happy as normal. Thus they become more likely to snap and be grumpy. They may also get ill as a result of their body being under constant assault and this can lead to more serious complications. On top of all this you also might notice them eating less and generally acting more lethargic.
For all these reasons you need to make sure that you help your dog with their flea problem as soon as possible. It is otherwise highly uncomfortable for them and can lead to more problems. Furthermore though, fleas are able to affect humans and so if you don't deal with them you could find they end up on your skin or in your hair - or worse that they affect your children. This can also cause infection which can be a serious problem so again it's crucial to avoid it.
When you use Advantix you will find that your dog quickly recovers from the fleas. Ordinary shampoo and brushing is not enough because it won't remove the eggs which can survive on the skin and even on the carpet for days. At the same time after using Advantix flea products you should take some precautions to avoid re-infection. First of all you should be sure to wash your carpets and in particular to wash dog beds and blankets. This is because fleas and flea eggs can otherwise survive in the carpet fibers and this way simply reattach themselves to your pet later. This is also an important precaution to avoid them infecting you and your family.
Likewise make sure that your pet is generally healthy and ensure that they get a good diet high in vitamins and minerals as well as high in oil. This will also help to reverse damage to their skin and general health.
