Veterinarian Certified Flea and Tick Medication |Chipman Animal Clinic

You don’t want fleas and ticks on you and you don’t want them on your best friend either. Chipman Road Animal Clinic carries the best prescription flea and tick medication for your dogs and puppies.

Our Bravecto and Nexgard products will safely protect your dogs, you, and your family from the irritations and health issues fleas and ticks cause. 

Bravecto for Dogs

If you are like so many of us, you have dashed off to the local pet store for an over-the-counter flea and tick treatment for your dog. Those pet store flea and tick control methods are exhausting and only partially effective. Your veterinarian has affordable, effective, and safe flea and tick medications that are easy to use.


Veterinarians everywhere recognize and recommend Bravecto as a superior flea and tick medication for your dogs that are over 6 months old. One dose of Bravecto will protect your pooch for 12 weeks from: 


Fleas

  • Fleas are the most common pest and are capable of transmitting serious diseases. 
  • Fleas have a long life cycle and monthly treatments can leave gaps in protection.
  • Bravecto provides protection for the entire life cycle of fleas. 


Ticks of various types:   

  • Blacklegged Tick: found mostly in the forest and can transmit bacterial diseases like Lyme disease
  • American dog tick: Ticks that prefer to attach to dogs found in grassy fields and walkways 
  • Brown dog tic: Brown ticks that prefer to attach to dogs and are capable of transmitting Rocky Mountain spotted fever 
  • Lone star tick: Mostly found in the South but also found in the eastern US.  They are aggressive ticks that also bite humans. They are called “Lone Star” because the females have a white dot on their backs. 

 

Veterinarians recommend Bravecto because one dose will last for 12 weeks providing flea and tick protection for the entire life cycle of those irritating pests. Your veterinarian will have the perfect dose of Bravecto for the size of your dog with two easy ways to administer the medication.


Bravecto Chewables

Bravecto comes in tasty chewable morsels your dog will accept as a treat. The size and dose of Bravecto chewables are matched to the size of your dog. 

Bravecto Topical For Dogs

You and your veterinarian may decide a Bravecto topical treatment would be best for your dog. As with chewables, a single topical treatment will last for 12 weeks. Your dog’s hair is parted and the flea and tick treatment is applied directly to the skin between the shoulder blades.

Nexgard Chewables

NexGard comes in tasty, soft beef-flavored chews your dog will love. NexGard is so easy, safe, and effective for flea and tick treatment. Talk with your veterinarian about NexGard if your dog is over 8 weeks old and weighs more than 4 pounds.

Veterinarian Certified: Pet Approved

Taking a guess or using a trial and error approach when addressing the flea and tick treatments needed for your dog is not an easy road for you or your pooch. 


Both Bravecto and NexGard flea and tick medications are available at Chipman Road Animal Clinic. Come in with your dog and meet our staff. We will discuss and assess the best flea and tick treatment for your dog.
