How does Capstar for Dogs work?

Capstar is formulated with nitenpyram, a fast-acting insecticide, as the key ingredient. Nitenpyram targets adult fleas by attacking their nervous system. After oral administration, nitenpyram is rapidly absorbed into the dog’s bloodstream. When fleas feed on the treated dog, they ingest the active ingredient and are quickly eliminated. Capstar kills fleas quickly after administration and stops fleas from establishing an infestation.

What to know before using Capstar for Dogs?

• Capstar tablets do not work on fleas present in the environment. You may need to treat more than once because immature fleas in and around the home will continue to develop into adults that can reinfest your dog.
• For effective flea control, all infested pets in the household must be treated, as they can reproduce on untreated pets and allow infestations to persist.
• Temporary itching or scratching may be observed after administration as fleas begin to die. The itching or scratching is a reaction to fleas, not the product.
