We've tried everything before finally finding the solution. We tried cleaning their dog house and play areas daily, setting up fly traps, dressing the wounds and spraying liquid band-aid on their ears, even tried applying desitin cream per some websites. Nothing really worked until a church member told us they had the same problem and nothing else worked except K9 Advantix!!

Our dogs were already on Frontline but out of desperation, we bought some K9 Advantix and applied them (our dogs were large dogs. If yours are smaller, check with your vet first before double-dosing). IT WORKED!!! NOT ONLY DID K9 ADVANTIX STOP THE FLIES FROM BITING, IT SEEMED TO HAVE REPELLED THEM AND SOON, WE WEREN'T SEEING ANY FLIES NEAR OUR DOGS' PLAY AREAS!!! Their wound healed within a couple of weeks (with some minor dressing) and their soft ears returned good as new!!!! If you are doubtful, read the below label from the product website: http://k9advantix.petparents.com/howItWorks.cfm. Other similar pet meds DO NOT claim to remedy biting flies. ONLY K-9 Advantix does.

Stops fleas from biting.

K9 Advantix offers proven protection against fleas in multiple stages of development. Imidacloprid, an active ingredient in K9 Advantix, stops biting fleas within three to five minutes and kills them before they lay eggs.2 K9 Advantix also kills flea larvae preventing them from developing into adult fleas, breaking the flea lifecycle in multiple stages.
