Rx Comfortis® (Spinosad) for Dogs and Cats
Comfortis® provides fast, convenient flea control in an easy-to-give, beef-flavored chewable tablet. It starts killing fleas within 30 minutes and prevents fleas from laying eggs, helping protect dogs and cats from flea infestations for a full 30 days.
Unlike topical flea treatments, Comfortis is not messy and does not leave staining residue on your pet's fur. There is also no isolation period while a topical treatment dries, allowing you to interact with your pet immediately after administration.
Benefits:
-
Beef-Flavored Chewable: Easy to administer as a treat and avoids the mess associated with topical flea treatments.
-
Fast-Acting: Starts killing fleas within 30 minutes. In controlled laboratory studies, Comfortis killed 100% of fleas on dogs and 98% of fleas on cats within four hours.
-
30-Day Protection: Helps control fleas and prevents infestations for a full 30 days.
-
Multiple Dose Options: Available in five doses for dogs and three doses for cats to accommodate different weight ranges.
-
Focused Flea Control: Provides flea control when flea treatment is the primary concern.
-
No Topical Residue: Does not leave staining residue on the coat or require an isolation period after administration.
How It Works:
Spinosad kills fleas by causing excitation of the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and rapid death.
