Is Advantix better than frontline?
Advantix kills and repels fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes, kills lice, and repels biting flies. In this case, Frontline might be better if you already have a flea infestation, whereas Advantix is the choice to repel everything before an infestation or bite occurs.
Is it safe to use Advantix on cats?
NO! I would not use Advantix in a household with cats. No way not ever, don’t do it. A cat just brushing up against a dog who has recently been treated with Advantix can kill kitty. It’s just not worth it. There are other safer for cats products you can use on dogs. I wouldn’t use it in a household of cats either.
What kind of Bugs does K9 Advantix kill?
The thing I liked about the K9 Advantix was it repels ticks, mosquitoes and biting flies (the other products kills ticks but don’t repel them or do anything for mosquitoes/flies.)

If Nemo had a product applied to him containing a strong permethrin in it, like a tube of PetsArmorPro or K9 Advantix, Nemo may be unable to walk, seizuring somewhere, or worse. When a cat has a reaction to a permethrin product, the nervous system is affected.
