## Description

Veterinary Formula Flea and Tick Shampoo is formulated with Pyrethrum, a natural insecticide, to immediately kill and control fleas and ticks. Made with Aloe Vera and Lanolin, it soothes irritations from flea and tick bites, while also gently cleansing and exfoliating your pet’s skin and coat. Pyrethrum, made from a flower, is the active ingredient in our 16 oz. bottle of Flea and Tick Dog and Cat Shampoo. Pet parents should look for droppings/flea dirt in the dog’s coat, allergic dermatitis, excessive scratching, licking or biting at skin, hair loss, tapeworms, and pale gums from flea and tick bites. This Flea and Tick Shampoo is paraben and soap-free. It contains no harsh soaps or damaging detergents, only naturally derived cleansers that are pH balanced for your pet’s skin. For best results, follow the instructions on the product packaging carefully. Wear rubber gloves when applying Flea and Tick Shampoo for dogs and cats. When shampooing your dog, avoid eyes. Use a cloth or sponge to shampoo around your dog’s eyes. Thoroughly wet the entire coat with warm water and then apply enough shampoo to make a lather and work thoroughly into the coat. For maximum control, allow the lather to remain in contact with the skin for ﬁve to ten minutes before rinsing. Do not reapply the product for 7 days. Flea and Tick shampoo is safe for dogs, cats, ferrets, and horses 12 weeks and older. We know that your dogs and cats are more than just pets - they are part of the family - so Veterinary Formula Clinical Care develops premium products that pet parents can actually afford. Your pet will be free of fleas and ticks, smell great and have a soft, shiny, and lustrous coat – making you both happy and able to focus on more important things like treats, games, and snuggles.

Review: It smells like peppermint lol good stuff 🥰 - I would say it works , I use it 2x daily on my dog and he’s fleas free . I forgot to spray him for 1 day and the fleas came back , I will be purchasing again once my run out . My dog hates me spraying it on him lol but it works on him .
Review: Works from the very first use - I bought this shampoo because my cat and dog started scratching a lot, and I suspected they might have fleas. From the very first bath, I noticed a big difference. The product has a mild scent, lathers well, and rinses off easily. The best part is that it really kills fleas and ticks on contact, just as it promises. After using it, both pets were left with clean, soft fur and no irritation. I also like that it isn’t harsh and is specially formulated for pets, which gives me peace of mind. I would definitely buy it again. It works, lasts a long time, and is worth every penny. Highly recommended!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If I use this shampoo for the flea and ticks, can I also use the medical conditioner Care Hot Spot & Itch? the effect will be the same? Thank you**
A: Hello Jestine, thank you for your question regarding our Flea and Tick Shampoo and Hot Spot and Itch Relief Medicated Conditioner. There should be no interaction between the two products. For maximum parasite control, we recommend to allow Flea and Tick Shampoo to remain in contact with skin for five to ten minutes before rinsing. Then, you can apply the conditioner and allow it to remain on pet for 5 minutes. Rinse well. In case your dog has any reaction to the combination of these products, please contact your veterinarian. We hope this helps.

**Q: The instructions say ferrets, but can this be used on Guinea Pigs also?**
A: We recommend this product is safe for use on dogs, cats, ferrets and horses over 12 weeks.

**Q: How long, after bathing my dog with the shampoo, do I have to wait to apply frontline?**
A: Ignore all the other answers. Any vet will tell you to wait 2-4 days after a bath. 
The most common flea medicine is brought upon a dog’s skin with the help of a pipette. Once this action is fulfilled, the treatment works via the layers of fat and tallow on the dog’s skin and that’s precisely why you can’t bathe a dog right before or after giving it the flea treatment.

Concretely, when you wash your dog, you slightly damage these layers. As a result, flea medicine can’t do its work like it’s supposed to and that’s something to avoid at all costs. So, it’s better to be safe than sorry and to just wait a little while (at least 48 hours) after washing your dog before you give it the flea medicine

**Q: Does this product also kill the eggs of fleas on dogs coat?**
A: Kills active live fleas only.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shampoo is wonderful !
*by M***E on December 26, 2025*

I am not crazy about the Prevention spray on for the dog, and furnishings. My dog was losing hair from the spray . Might be too harsh for her. She has plenty of fur, but I don't like little spaces of missing hair. Maybe I will try only spraying it on her bed, etc. The Shampoo is gentle, suds up well and will remove anything lingering. I give the shampoo an A+. This product does not have any smell.
