Treatment Schedule
The product should be administered at regular monthly intervals
Treatment may begin at any time of the year
If a flea infestation already exists, fleas can continue to emerge into the environment for weeks to months - because of the continuing development of existing flea eggs, larvae and pupae already present before the time of treatment - it may take more than a single treatment to achieve acceptable flea control
Treatment should continue without interruption all year round - breaks in protection can allow for an environmental flea burden to re-establish
To minimise the likelihood of flea re-infestation, it is important to treat all dogs and cats within the household - Simparica is approved for use in dogs only - check product labels for an appropriate approved flea control for use in cats
