This veterinarian-recommended treatment is specifically formulated to repel and kill fleas and ticks on contact with no painful biting required.

This collar is widely used as a reliable flea and tick prevention option for small dogs, offering long‑lasting, multi‑month protection for both indoor and outdoor pets. It is often chosen by owners looking for a safe solution for small breeds and a convenient alternative to monthly topical treatments.

How to Use
Use only one collar per animal.
- Fit collar around your pet's neck, allowing for 2 fingers to fit between the collar and your pet's neck to ensure a comfortable, yet snug, fit.
- Once collar is properly fitted, cut off any excess collar measuring 1" or longer.
- The collar should be worn continuously for the 8-month protection period.
- Check periodically and adjust fit, if necessary, especially when puppies are rapidly growing.
- Keep the collar in the bag and in the outer packaging until use.
- Replace the collar after 8 months for optimal tick and flea protection.
Water Resistance:
It is unnecessary to remove the collar before immersing your pet in water. Seresto remains effective following a shampoo treatment, swimming or exposure to rain or sunlight. In order to maintain an 8 month duration, pets must not be bathed more than once a month. For pets that swim once a month or more, the control duration is reduced to five months for fleas and seven months for ticks.
Precautions:
- Read the entire label before use.
- Use only on Dogs.
- Do not let children play with this collar.
Important Information
- Fleas rise to the top of your pet's coat as they die, so consider it a triumph if you start seeing more fleas at first, after treating your pet.
- If you’re still seeing fleas after application, it may be because your pet has picked up new fleas from the environment, which may include other pets, surfaces and outdoor areas.
- It may take up to 30 days to break the entire flea life cycle.
- Additionally, you should also treat sources of new fleas (i.e., carpet, yard, etc.) to ensure complete flea control.
