Bath time can handle the flea and tick problem. This shampoo knocks out fleas, their eggs, ticks and lice right away, and the effect carries past the rinse, since flea eggs can't hatch for 28 days afterward.
It's made for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens 12 weeks and older. The rich, creamy lather cleans and conditions, so the coat comes out soft, shiny and easy to brush, and the light, fresh scent is pleasant on grooming day. Small amounts do the job: about 1⅓ tablespoons per 5 lbs of pet weight.

How to use it
Wet the coat well, then work the shampoo in from the head back and down. Leave the lather on for 3 to 5 minutes, which matters for the result, then rinse and towel dry. Use about 1⅓ tablespoons for every 5 lbs of pet weight. If fleas persist, repeat about a week to ten days later.
Good to know
Most fleas live off the pet, in the home and yard, so pair this shampoo with a home and yard treatment for full control. Keep it away from the eyes during the bath.
