(Nitenpyram) Fast-Acting Oral Flea Treatment for Dogs 2-25 Lbs, Vet-Recommended Medication Tablets, Flea Tablets for Dogs Start Killing in 30 Minutes, 6 Doses

**Effective and Easy Flea Control for My Dog** I’ve been using CAPSTAR flea medicine for my dog, and I’m really happy with the results. The pill is easy to give—no mess, no topical residue, and no fighting with my dog to apply it. Within a short time, I noticed a big reduction in scratching and flea activity, which was such a relief. What I like most is the convenience of a monthly pill. It fits easily into our routine and gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is protected. My dog didn’t have any noticeable side effects and took the pill without any issues. Overall, CAPSTAR has been a reliable and stress-free solution for keeping fleas under control. I’d definitely recommend it to dog owners looking for an effective oral flea treatment for anyone searching for a value on their dollar!

This is a Very Good Quality flea& tick pills for Your Fur Pet's. I highly reccomend it. the only down fall is the price has gone up, but if you really Love You Fur Family Pet it's worth every penny...

This medicine for my dog has been very good, it has an excellent price and does its function very well, I have already bought them twice

Seems to provide relief for symptoms. Pricing is quite high for amount of treatments, so docking a star for that.

First, let me point out that CapStar is NOT a preventative! It is supposed to kill adult fleas on the dog but it doesn't prevent them from getting fleas again - not does it kill anything but adult fleas, which means you still need something (monthly topical or oral flea medicine) to kill the eggs and the larvae or those will obviously mature into adults and you and your pet are stuck in the vicious cycle. That being said, here is my first and only experience with CapStar. We have never had flea issues until this year. I have two Alaskan Malamutes - one 105 pound "short hair" and one 110 pound long hair. Clearly, they both have the Malamute thick double coat. We usually like K9 Advantix II for flea treatment/prevention. Early this summer, I bought the Amazon brand that has the same ingrediens as K9 Advantix II. It arrived with no expiration date and I'm not sure if that's the reason that it doesn't seem to work, that it's not the same formula or perhaps the fleas have become resistant... or it's just an especially overwhelming year for fleas. Either way, I thought by trying this first and THEN putting their prevention on within a day or two, it would work. I gave them each a CapStar pill, nervously watched for adverse reactions and thanked God they didn't seem to have any issues. It also didn't seem to help the flea situation - they continued scratching and biting as before. Because I didn't want to give them back to back, I waited for about 48 hours before giving another CapStar to each of them. Once again, no reaction but the scratching and chewing hasn't subsided at all nine hours later. In fact, I almost feel like both times, they were actually scratching more after the CapStar tablets?? It makes me wonder if it is actually not killing the fleas but just irritating them and making them more active and angry (or at least more hungry LOL). I really needed this to work and was hoping that in conjunction with a topical preventative, we would be able to both kill AND prevent reinfstation with a two prong attack. Sadly, we are just out more money, time and effort. I should mention that along side this effort, I treated the bedrooms that have carpet (the rest of the house has hard floors and we have a no-knap, outdoor rug in the living room because it can be power washed). Anyway, I sprayed the Vet's Best Flea & Tick Home Spray on the carpet, mattresses and washed bedding & blankets. It's difficult to get every possible location that a flea could be hiding but I was fortunate to be able to see a flea and spray Vet's Best directly on it. The Vet's Best spray killed it in less than 10 seconds. It does say that you can apply it to your dog's coat and rub it in down to their skin. That sounded too unrealistic with their thick coats but because it is natural, smells really nice IMO and obviously works, I think I will still attempt that on most of their coat/body, add Diatomaceous Earth to the floors, dog beds, rugs, etc and THEN try reapplying topical prevention. I just have to decide if I am going to use some of the 8 tubes I have left of the Amazon brand or try something else - I might pick up the Frontline Plus that's on sale at Costco tomorrow. *Edit* - I called my vet after posting this review to ask if Frontline Plus was working on fleas in our area (mid-Michgan in lower peninsula). I also spoke with the vet directly when taking this guy (in photo) in for his appointment that fall. The vet said that fleas had become more resistant to topicals and developed a thicker exoskeleton. In her opinion, she said the only thing that was working was oral prevention (like Nexgard). Ultimately, that's what we did - put them both on Nexgard until the cold Michigan winters helped kill the outdoor population and we could all breathe a sigh of relief. We never returned to topicals since this experience but have friends with multiple dogs (2 German Shepherds and a long hair Alaskan Malamute) who continued to use Advantix II (the name brand version) directly from their vet and said they haven't experienced issues. Hope my struggle and experience was helpful in some way but no matter which way you go, I think you can skip the unnecessary step of Capstar and not only save a bit of money but save your dog from extra chemicals that don't offer any real relief or added benefit.

Yes my order arrived in good shape. I really like the way this flea and tick medicine works on my dogs. Have been using it for several years. My dogs have never had any kind of reactions to it. Thank you. It's a very good product and not too expensive.

Doesn't work great. Have to feed to your dog everyday. Gets expensive fast.

Saw results immediately, just a little too pricey for me and if you don’t stay on top of it, then you won’t have long-term results
