Frequently Asked Questions about Flea and Worming for Dogs
How often should I treat my dog for fleas, ticks and worms?
The frequency of flea, tick and worm treatments depends on your dog's lifestyle, environment, and the specific products you're using. Generally, monthly treatments are recommended for most dogs, although there are also some longer lasting treatment options available. Request a free Vet Pet Plan from our in house veterinarians or consult with your regular vet for advice on the best treatment schedule for your dog.
Can indoor dogs still get fleas or worms?
Yes, even indoor dogs can get fleas or worms. Fleas can be brought into the house on other animals or on people's clothing. Worms can be transmitted through contaminated food or water, or through contact with other infected animals. It is recommended that all dogs and cats are covered against fleas and heartworm year round and treated for intestinal worms regularly to ensure everyone in the family remains healthy and comfortable.
What’s the best flea and worm treatment for puppies?
Puppies have delicate immune systems, so it's important to use age-appropriate flea and worm treatments. Consult with your veterinarian or ask a Pet Circle vet to determine the best options for your puppy's age and weight.
Are there any natural flea, tick and worm treatments available?
While some natural remedies may offer temporary relief, it's important to consult with your veterinarian before using any natural products on your dog as they are not as effective and could put your dog at risk. All flea, tick and worm treatments sold in Australia are required to be registered with the APVMA, which requires scientific proof that they are both safe and effective.
How do flea and worm preventatives work together?
Fleas, ticks, heartworms and intestinal worms are different parasites that require different types of medications to treat effectively. Flea and worm preventatives often work together in a single product. This combination treatment offers convenience and comprehensive protection for your pet. Here's how they typically function:
- Flea Prevention: The flea component of the product usually contains ingredients that kill adult fleas and their eggs. This can help prevent infestations and reduce the risk of flea-borne diseases like tapeworms.
- Worm Prevention: The worm component of the product targets various types of intestinal worms, such as roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms. These medications can kill adult worms and prevent the eggs from hatching, reducing the risk of reinfection.
- Heartworm Prevention: The heartworm component works by preventing the development of heartworm larvae in dogs, either by killing the larvae or preventing them from developing into adult worms.
- Tick Prevention: Tick prevention products work in various ways to deter, kill, or repel ticks from attaching to your pet. The most effective tick prevention treatments are in the newer generation isoxazoline family, which kills ticks after they have attached. Older products include ingredients which act as tick repellents, these are typically less effective, particularly against paralysis ticks. In areas where tick borne illness such as Ehrlichiosis are present, it may also be necessary to use a product that contains a tick repellent.
