ADAMS Plus Pyrethrin Dip for Dogs and Cats, Kills and Repels Fleas, Ticks, Lice, Gnats, Mosquitoes and Flies, 4 fl oz

At first I didn't think it worked first dip I washed my cat in dawn rinsed then dipped her. Within a week the fleas were back on her. This time I did the same thing but I let her air dry by my heater instead of towel drying which I believe took off alot of the insecticide and used a cat cone so she wouldn't lick the toxins while it was drying. Its been a week and she hasn't been scratching, no signs of fleas dirt in her fur. Now thats a win. Great product just use it strategically. With both times i dipped her the dip instantly killed the fleas that the dawn did not suffocate / were resistant to. Works better than advantage in my opinion. Great flea solution!

This definitely works REAL well. I’m talking like the fleas will be dropping dead on the floor. The only thing I’d recommend is keep an eye on ur cats make sure they DO NOT lick themselves at all unless they are completely dry. Or a cone may be needed. It is toxic so if they lick they might get sick, my cat started drooling from licking his paws so I made sure to rinse his mouth and keep a VERY close watch on him until he eventually napped and was dry. I would also use a flea comb dipped in the solution to cover their coat. You do NOT need to use the entire gallon mixture, but it is absolutely necessary to dilute the solution before use.

Before purchasing Adams Plus Pyrethrin Dip and Sulfur Dip for my German Shepard, he scratched all day long unless he was sleeping or playing ball. I had tried many products before trying these two products using along with Dawn Dish Soap. I felt that using all three products helped my dog with his flea, and dog mites problems. The Pyrethrin Dip also keeps the deer flies and horseflies from bothering him. The Sulfur has stopped the itching and the Dawn Soap immediately kills the fleas. I gave a 4 rating because I did try using as standalone with a dog shampoo. The next day my dog leaned onto my leg and I had a leg full of fleas on me.So I felt the product did not deter fleas. Plus I put some of the product in a bowl of water and washed the flea brush in the chemical. It did not kill the fleas on contact.

Used immediately when it arrived and treated both 50 pound dogs (approximate). It appeared to kill fleas on contact. I knew the light brown short haired dog had fleas, but could be sure on the very very long haired mop of a black dog. Well, the dip left a little puddle in the bottom of the tub with fleas in it, so it was effective. Used a hair dryer on low—brown dog was dry in a half hour. Black dog also got hair dryer, but will not be completely dry until sometime tomorrow. However, he smells lovely. It was easy to use and I will definitely be using it again in a week, as per package directions. Mixed it up in a gallon water jug and a gallon covered one dog just fine.

will update when I see that it works- tried other topical dog flea meds and the expensive monthly pill- all fleas seem immune to these products lately- so I tried this- so far, the smell is not bad and the application fairly easy- once I knew the instructions....... my fault with this product at this moment is that it came without directions for use- I had to google it and this is what AI says (take at your own risk)- Preparation: Shake the bottle well before use. Mix 1/2 ounce (1 tablespoon) of dip with 1 gallon of warm water. Prepare a fresh solution daily. Application: Wet your pet thoroughly with the diluted solution. Sponge or dip your pet in the solution, ensuring that all areas of the body are covered. Allow the solution to dry completely on your pet's coat. Do not rinse off.

Glad to have found this for our cat. Seems to have worked with one application.

Ok

I purchased Adams Plus Pyrethrin Dip after seeing that it was labeled for both dogs and cats. Unfortunately, after using this product on my cats, one of them had a serious respiratory reaction that required an emergency vet visit, including IV fluids, steroid injection, sedation, and antibiotics. He developed wheezing and breathing distress shortly after exposure. My other cat was immediately and thoroughly rinsed under running water, which likely prevented a more severe reaction, but he still vomited once afterward. While this product may work for some pets, it is extremely risky for cats, especially those with sensitive airways. Even when used with caution, the reaction was severe and terrifying. The vet confirmed this type of reaction is a known risk with pyrethrin products in cats. I strongly recommend that cat owners avoid this product entirely and use only vet-approved, cat-specific flea treatments. I would never use this product again
