Sergeant's Guardian Flea & Tick Dog Shampoo, Clean Cotton Scent, 18 oz.

I was shopping on Amazon, looking for an affordable and effective shampoo for my best friend (my dog), who was badly infested with fleas. I found Sergeant's Guardian Flea & Tick Dog Shampoo (Clean Cotton Scent, 18 oz), which was an affordable, fragrant, pH-balanced option that kills fleas, ticks, and flea eggs for up to 30 days while conditioning the coat. It is strictly for dogs and puppies over 12 weeks old; it is highly toxic to cats. The result was instant, and I can see the dead fleas as I massage my dog’s coat. However, you must keep in mind the following: • Crucial Safety Warning: DO NOT USE ON CATS. The ingredients, particularly Permethrin, are highly toxic and potentially fatal to cats. • Targeted Use: For dogs and puppies 12 weeks and older only. • Effectiveness: Kills fleas and ticks, including deer ticks, and kills flea eggs for 30 days to prevent re-infestation. It may take 24-72 hours to reach full effectiveness. • Application & Safety Precautions: Wear rubber gloves when applying to avoid skin irritation. Avoid contact with eyes or clothing. • Usage Advice: Consult a veterinarian before using on medicated, aged, pregnant, or nursing dogs. • Possible Sensitivity: Some users have reported immediate, adverse reactions (shaking, restlessness) in their dogs. If a dog shows sensitivity, bathe with mild soap and rinse thoroughly. • Scent: Features a "Clean Cotton" scent, which is generally well-received. This shampoo is a good, budget-friendly option for flea control, often used in conjunction with other treatments, but it requires strict adherence to safety precautions during application and to avoid contact with cats.

Firstly, this is a great bargain compared to pet store or large store prices. Most importantly, it worked on the first use! It smells amazing, also. So worth the buy!

My 3 dogs were completely infested! This shampoo helped right away. After their baths, the only fleas I combed out were dead! And, it smells AMAZING!!

This thing smells amazing and cleans very efficiently. And for the price its unbeatable.

Smells amazing and kills fleas and keeps working for 10 days. I always have a bottle or 2 on hand
