Plus Flea & Tick Shampoo with Precor for Cats, Kittens, Dogs & Puppies Over 12 Weeks Of Age, Sensitive Skin Flea Treatment Formula, Kills Adult Fleas, Flea Eggs, Ticks, and Lice, 1 Gallon

The flea shampoo works good against fleas. It does not leave a chemical smell and leaves my dogs hair feeling very clean and soft. It’s a good value.

This is all I use to bathe my 2 Shihtzus, biweekly as it can dry out their delicate skin. Smells amazing, never had a single flea and I live in the sticks. We do find an occasional tick but never are they imbedded. Well worth the price.

It had a great lather, and knocked a bunch of fleas off while in the bath—yet, those that still remained were either dead, and just stuck on the cat until combed out, or still moseying around, fully alive. Most of those were around the face areas, which would make sense as the product weren’t to be applied there, but there were stragglers along the larger expanses of the body, too. Like they were late to the eradication party, and just didn’t get the memo they were supposed to get the boot.My confusion towards what to properly rate this shampoo—although I’d been using sprays for rooms, regularly cleaning fabrics/surfaces/floors, combing them multiple times a day, and feeding them flea preventative chews in addition to this product—stems from uncertainty.After I’d washed them, and combed out the fleas, the cats were actually able to peacefully sleep during the night and focus solely on playing, rather than scratching, during the following morning. By early afternoon, however, about half the usual amount of fleas returned. It were rather unsettling to have removed the fleas the night before(judging by sight and amount of scratching, if any), but then exhaustingly gaze upon another fur and skin infestation the very next day, like—huh?!? What HAPPENED?!So far, in my flea removal journey, nothing had really seemed to work just yet. On the bright side, this shampoo has a wonderfully pleasant scent, and caused the fur to have a velvety, long-lasting, moisturized tactility. That were fantastic; the cats STILL smell great even now, mid-afternoon the day after their bath!I’d say for the SMALL bottle size, it were easy to glob on despite the type of child-proof-like cap and the freshness seal being wrestled with a bit. It cleaned away dirt very well from a long-haired cat; their fur felt so wonderfully fluffy, soft and clean! I could glide a comb through their bushy tail with NO resistance, compared to other pet shampoos used.The value is good, despite the TINY bottle size, but still on the fence with that clean-and-partially-flea-free-for-a-night-and-morning-then-a-near-mess-again-by-afternoon result. So eh. I’m interested in using it again for its scent, alone haha.But, currently, I am in NO RUSH to try bathing them again anytime soon, as my scratched/bitten up hands and arms should probably have the chance to fully heal first.🤣Update!: It’s been 2-3 days, now. The flea amounts have increased a bit. On the bright side, for the short-haired cats, the wonderful aroma is impressively STILL very much present! It continues to be the right amount of “strong”. For the long-hair, however, the scent went away within a day’s time haha. All the cats still have lusciously soft fur after that shampooing.Second update!: It’s been almost a full week now, since the cats have been bathed with this product. You’re NOT gonna believe this, but even after spraying them down in a STRONG “wonder”ous cedar smell that clung to them and made their fur sticky/clammy-tacky for about 2 days, once it all wore away and their fur started smoothing out again, THE PLEASANT SCENT OF THIS SHAMPOO STILL REMAINED BENEATH IT ALL!! For only 2 of the kitties, of whom had been rolling around on the floor playing with each other, I couldn’t smell the shampoo anymore. Perhaps because one were the longhair, the shorthair who interacted with them the most began taking on their natural B.O. haha. There is another playful cat who often engages with those two, but that one still carries the aroma of this shampoo.Like I’d stated before, if I did use this shampoo again, it would primarily be for the scent!!🤣

We found out our dogs picked up dog lice at the dog park. The poor things were infested before we figured it out and went to the vet. He gave us a chewable flea/tick treatment that also works on lice. One of our dogs vomited a few hours after taking the chew and the vet told me it should’ve already been digested, but she kept scratching and scratching, whereas the other dogs stopped scratching. I didn’t want to give her another ingest-able since she already vomited once, and I don’t know how much of it she actually digested. I found this shampoo that works on lice too, and ordered it. I just finished bathing her with it. It’s not supposed to be used near the eyes, which makes sense, so I created a “barrier” by starting to apply the shampoo all around her neck, and on her ears and right under her ears, so when I started on her body, the lice couldn’t run up to her face, like fleas do. I read some reviews here where the reviewer said all the fleas on their dog ran up to the face, and you can’t use the shampoo there, so the treatment didn’t help them. Its a simple thing to create the barrier, but most people don’t think of it. I wouldn’t have either, lol, but not long ago I watched a video from our local animal shelter of a dog that had come in covered in ticks and fleas. The video was of the groomer there shampooing and clipping the dog. She explained she was starting the flea shampoo on his neck and why. Anyway, I did this with my dog too, and then shampooed her whole body, leaving the shampoo on for 5 minutes, as instructed by the manufacturer. I towel dried her and now she is almost dry and sleeping. She has not scratched once since the bath, whereas before she scratched somewhere on her body every 30 seconds or so, even after a bath with regular dog shampoo, waking up to scratch, never settling anywhere for longer than 5-10 minutes. Her hair is so soft now and she smells amazing, like baby powder. The shampoo is a thick, creamy, baby blue color, like the bottle.Dog lice are kind of yellowish brown, the same color as my dog’s hair. They are very hard to see, are smaller than fleas and don’t jump like fleas, so it was hard to see if they came off her. I also kept my eyes more on her than the sink. The true proof of effectiveness has been the absence of scratching. Yay! 5 big old stars! I will be using this on a regular basis to keep the lice, and possibly fleas, off my dogs.This shampoo contains an insecticide and should be used carefully. I recommend reading the entire label first and following the directions to the letter to prevent any mishaps.
