Effipro Spray Antiparasitaire Chien & Chat is a fipronil-based skin spray for the treatment of fleas, ticks and chewing lice. It can be used on dogs and cats, including the very young, with a weight-adjustable dosage. Sprayed on the coat, it provides long-lasting external protection and forms part of a comprehensive approach to parasitic infestations.
Effipro Spray Antiparasitaire Chien & Chat acts as a skin antiparasitic solution for the treatment of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides spp.) in dogs and cats. The product targets adult parasites present on the coat and skin, responsible for discomfort, itching and secondary skin lesions. This insecticidal action rapidly reduces the parasite load, while limiting recontamination of the animal in an infested environment. The spray is part of an overall external protection strategy, suitable for both indoor and outdoor animals.
Effipro Spray Antiparasitaire Chien & Chat can also be used to treat tick infestations (Ixodes ricinus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus) in dogs and cats. Ticks represent a recognized health risk, as they can transmit pathogens. Fipronil acts directly on the nervous system of mites, causing them to be eliminated after fixation. Acaricidal efficacy persists for up to 4 weeks, depending on environmental pressure, helping to limit the risk of repeated infestations in areas of high exposure.
This veterinary medicine also treats infestations by chewing lice, notably Trichodectes canis in dogs and Felicola subrostratus in cats. Although less frequent, these parasites can cause coat disorders, skin discomfort and altered general condition. Application of the spray enables targeted action on several types of external parasites, making it a versatile solution for the management of ectoparasites in domestic carnivores.
Effipro Spray Antiparasitaire Chien & Chat can be integrated into a therapeutic program for the management of Flea Bite Hypersensitivity Dermatitis (FBHD). By sustainably reducing the flea population on the animal and in the home, the product helps to control allergic reactions linked to flea bites, in addition to other recommended veterinary measures. A monthly application to the allergic animal and other pets in the household reinforces the coherence of this global approach.
The formula is based on fipronil, a phenylpyrazole insecticide and acaricide. This active substance inhibits the GABA complex by blocking the parasites' chloride channels, thereby disrupting the insects' and mites' central nervous systems and eliminating them. After spraying, the product spreads over the skin surface thanks to a covering agent, forming a homogeneous film that ensures gradual diffusion while making the coat visibly shinier.
In practice, Effipro Spray Antiparasitaire Chien & Chat provides broad external protection, combining insecticide, acaricide and pediculicide action, with a persistence of efficacy adapted to the life rhythms of dogs and cats. This solution is suitable for puppies and kittens from the age of 2 days, and is part of a reasoned approach to parasite control in the home, taking into account the environmental context, lifestyle and number of animals in the household.
To complement this approach and reinforce the overall management of infestations, Frontline Spray Pompe Chats Chiens 250 ml can be used alternately for its recognized anti-parasite benefits.
