Protecting or treating your dog against fleas and ticks is essential to avoid illnesses such as piroplasmosis, Lyme disease, leishmaniasis and other skin disorders. Whether spot-on pipettes, collars, tablets, sprays, shampoos or powders, natural or chemical, external antiparasitics for dogs should be chosen according to age (puppy or adult), size (small dog, large dog), lifestyle and location, and the parasite(s) targeted, to ensure maximum effectiveness. The same criteria apply to cats.
A parasite is a living being that lives at the expense of another living being, referred to as a host. Unlike predators, parasites generally do not kill their hosts, but can cause serious illnesses.
External parasites live outside the dog's body or in the superficial layers of the skin. Unlike internal parasites, they do not penetrate body cavities. External parasites feed on blood (hematophagous) or skin debris. The most common external parasites in dogs are insects: Fleas and lice.
Fleas , and more rarely lice, are wingless, apterous insects. They cause skin disorders in dogs, the most frequent symptoms being itching of varying severity linked to the bites of these insects. In the event of allergy to flea saliva, flea bite allergy dermatitis(FAD) may develop.
