What is Stronghold Spot-On for Puppy & Kitten?

Stronghold Spot-On for Puppy & Kitten is a medication that works to treat and prevent infestations of parasites such as fleas. Designed specifically for puppies and kittens, it should be used directly on your pet’s skin. The solution kills fleas to relieve your pet of discomfort and reduce the risk of parasitic diseases.

The ready-to-use solution comes in pre-filled pipettes to allow for easy dosing and no need for the hassle of giving your pet tablets. It can also be used to treat intestinal roundworms, ear mites, biting lice and scabies. 

Use Stronghold Spot-On for Puppy & Kitten monthly to ensure long-lasting protection for your pet against fleas.

The medicine has been developed specifically for puppies and kittens. If you are looking to treat an infestation in an adult dog or cat then be sure to request Stronghold Spot-On Solution for Dogs or Stronghold Spot-On for Cats instead.

How does Stronghold Spot-On for Puppy & Kitten work?

The active ingredient in Stronghold Spot-On for Puppy & Kitten is selamectin, which begins to attack the nervous system of parasites to paralyse and kill them. It disrupts the parasite’s nerve cells by mimicking an important amino acid. Because the solution is designed to be applied to the skin, rather than ingested by your animal, it doesn’t require a flea to bite your pet for it to begin working.

Instructions for Stronghold Spot-On for Puppy & Kitten

When you receive the medication, it’s important to read and understand the dosage instructions. The strength and dose of the medication will depend on the size of your pet.

Always use medications as directed by your vet. The solution should be applied to your animal’s skin, on the back of the neck. Begin by parting the hair or fur and then squeeze the contents of the pipette onto the skin. It’s administered on the back of the neck so that your puppy or kitten is unable to lick the solution off. If you have multiple pets, ensure they don’t lick or groom each other until the solution has dried.

This medicine is suitable for kittens and puppies weighing under 2.5kg. If your pet weighs more than this then you may require an alternative solution. View the full Stronghold range for further details.

The number of administrations required depends on the type of parasite being treated and the weight and species of the animal.
