Burnt a hole in my dogs skin!
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)After a couple of days my dog was acting strangely! Scratching and rubbing all over the furniture. I thought it was the fleas dying! Turns out he had a huge burn mark on his back where I had applied the Advantix! Poor baby is in such pain.

Does not prevent fleas
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)This product seemed to keep fleas away for about a year but in the last 3 months my dog has been infested with fleas. It appears to have no effect at all. I followed the instructions exactly but to no avail. I would not buy again.
Poison
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)My happy and healthy 20 lbs 8 y.o. Havanese have never had issues with any preventative meds until I put this poison on him. Three day later, he is still having seizures, respiratory issues, fever, and depression. In the past three days, we spent one night in the emergency room and today at his regular vet. Stay away from Bayer, Merck, and other merchants of death, and buy a good tick collar or chewable alternative instead. And if they ever tell you it is harmless to apply carcinogenic neurotoxins, ask them to demonstrate that point by applying them on their children first.

Shih T'zu having a horrible reaction.
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)I bought Advantix on Friday and administered it on my 11 year old Shih T'zu. Throughout the evening and night he was digging at his backside and very itchy, rolling over trying to scratch uncontrollably. He is also twitching and jumps up from his sleep and can't seem to settle. This has been day 3 and the same thing this morning, very itchy, biting at his backside and very jerky. I called the vet and was told to watch him. I would never use this product again and I hope this settles down very soon. We have used other products with no problems.

Shih T'zus BEWARE.
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)Put this crap on my poor wee Shih T'zu. Took him for a walk less than an hour later. After 5 minutes he sat down which he Never does on a walk. Coaxed him back up for 100 ft + he did the same thing. 3rd time he lay right down + wouldn't get up. I had to carry him home. He was very lethargic. I bathed + scrubbed him well + rinsed with lots of water. Now he is suffering tremors. Most reports I have read that state these symptoms all mention Shih T'zus. Willy's symptoms are: lethargy, weakness in back legs, full body tremors. Hopefully he will eat + drink tomoro.

Beloved princess
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)I have been using Advantix for over the past 4 years with much success. It worked well for the past 4 year's. It wasn't until this year where my beloved pet princess contracted Lyme disease it was uncurable I had to put her down. My heart is broken I applied this medication Faithfully every month. Did not work for fleas or ticks buyer beware
Seizure

Almost killed my dog!!
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)My dog almost died the other day from Advantix I don't know why I have used Advantix through the years but this time it was horrible.
Dangerous reaction
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)Within 24 hours of application, our otherwise healthy happy 13 week shitzu x Maltese developed muscle spasms, involuntary huge twitch movements :(. Was prescribed by vet who then suggested washing it off and cease using. Pup hasn't recovered yet, vet suggested bad reaction to her nervous system.
Muscle Spasms! Awful Product!
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)I'm not saying this will be the same for all small dogs but my Yorkie (who is 12 pounds) had a TERRIBLE reaction to this medication. His whole body was twitching and he was having what the vet described as muscle spasms or like "pins and needles" all over his body for about 9 days after application. We thought it may be small seizures and effecting his neurological system. Thankfully we noticed the spasms about 1 day after application so we were able to wash it off him and hopefully minimize any further potential side effects. I wish I had done
... Read more my research before applying this as I've now read many many bad reviews of this medication for small dogs. I used the correct weight for my dog but the medication was still too strong for him. My research would have saved me lots of money in multiple trips to the vet and pain for my little guy : (Find out how Advantix for Dogs Green (Small Dog) compares to other Tick & Flea Control Products

Been using for 6 years with success
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)We have a 6 y o toy poodle& never seen a tick or flea on her .It seems some dogs are sensitive to the product just like I read about other brands. Easy to apply & yes it's a chemical, but we want to kill the fleas, not put water on them.
This product shoud not be allowe on the market.
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)My miniature poodle became listless and did not want eat or drink after using Advantix and became very unwell.
Vet said to bath her immediately and she then showed some improvement. A full blood history was done and I am still waiting on the results to see if any damage has been done to her vital organs.
My vet does not have this product on their shelves which I found more than interesting.
Waste of money
for Dogs Green (Small Dog)Product is easy to administer, which was seriously the only good thing about it. It did not work. I bought a 3 month supply, for June July and August from the vet. Kept it stored at proper temp. And still have had to bring my dog back to the vet several times to have ticks removed that burrowed too deep for me to get. And my dogs skin is extremely dry from it as well.
Questions & Answers
My poodle cross has been on Advantix for over 8 years. In the last year or so she has regularly developed blister like spots on her stomach and through her skin, She also gets ear infections and gets lethargic. My vet believes it is a food allergy and we are about to start a food trial but I feel it could be an allergy to Advantix. She does not have fleas or ticks, so it works, but I would just like some advice on whether she may now have developed an allergy to Advantix.
