Capstar Dog Flea Treatment For Sale (2024 Update)

Ok, so I wanted to rate this product 5 stars but I can't. Does the product kill the fleas? Yes. If you are looking for a quick fix, this is your product. I saw results immediately. However, I did have to use another tablet to kill the fleas (which was suggested on the box). This box came with 6 tablets. However, if you read the description on the product it says that results will not last more than 24 hours, meaning this is not a long term solution compared to NexGard. If you know for certain your dog is not going back to a flea area and this is just a quick fix, buy this. I would buy this for my cat since he's an indoor cat only. But I wouldn't use this for my dogs for long term use since I am always taking them to parks. So, if you''re looking for a quick fix, this is it. But I wouldn't waste your money if you're looking for a long term solution. I really wanted to like this. Maybe I will just by the NexGard after all. i just hate how expensive it is.TRios

I ordered online last night and picked it up at Petco store this afternoon. It worked well for my dog(24 lb)! I needed something effective product to kill flea after unsuccessful flea shampoo and spray. I and my family got many flea bites as well. I gave my dog a pill tonight. I was expecting to see many fleas drop on the floor but it didn’t. However, 1 hour later I brushed her and found few dead fleas on her body. She is sleeping very well tonight without scratching. I am glad I tried this pill.Momomamapdx

WOW, My little dogs fight flees every year. No matter how much I vacuum and use flee powers on the floor and furniture and their beds, they still (every summer) have a really hard time. I purchased this product because of what I saw on a Vets YouTube video and here's the facts! THIS PRODUCT WORKS BETTER THAN ANY OTHER PRODUCT I'VE EVER SEEN IN 15 YRS. You can literally see results with 12 to 24 hours. This product is awesome.kelsar777

First of all, NEVER diss the value of a vet check: your pet , cat or dog, has to be healthy enough for ANY correctly used flea remedies. Yes, vets need to stay in business and some of their prices are quite higher than some reputable online sellers offer. This product alone will not end your flea-festation if it is bad. Fleas spend only a tiny portion of their time on the animal- otherwise they're in your carpets, cracks, furniture, yards- but fleas do normally "dine" twice a day. Giving this oral pill once daily will START to deal with your problem, killing each flea that bites within 24 hours. Nitenpyram is used for both dogs and cats. * Once your cat is cleared for this medication, and weighs at least 3 pounds, it is cost saving to BREAK one 57mg( packaged for Dogs over 25 pounds) tablet into 4 quarters and use one of these quarters for a cat. The normal cat dosage is only 11mg/ the quarter is 14.25mg, not a substantial difference, in fact some vets sell this product this way- at $6-10 per quarter. You do the math. To truly "treat" a severe flea infestation will require your washing all pet bedding, treating carpets, floors, yards- each with diffetent products which each have very specific safety instructions for your pets and family and must be followed to the letter. Yourvet can help you choose a treatment plan. Capstar, like any flea product, is subject to formula updates; the above applies only to the product as shown. It has helped me immensely in my cat rescue group.simon7sez

i got these for my 85 lb dog. seems like it helps he doesnt itch as much after use. i see no fleas.i used the smaller sized dog 1 on my 10lb dog it worked too. you have to 30 day treat. i have 3 dogs and a cat all wear seresto collars but still got fleas somehow ,so since the collars allow to treat with topicals i used advantage plus on all 4. they still have fleas. im using these on top of all that and check my dogs weekly. keep coming up with 4 fleas on 1 dog and 8 on my cat. i dont understand why none of these products are working. the vet says fleas are immune. hows that possible?! id say if this doesnt seem to be working cause you see fleas it probably is but not killing the eggs so its repeat the process. plus do your house. rugs hardwood floors too. why the $80 topicalslhayes

My 3 cats came down with fleas. We believe it was our adopted outdoor cat. Anyway, our other adopted cat has flea dermatitis and was breaking out in horrific sores as well as losing fur and being miserable. Our 3rd cat we are fostering for a friend and ended up losing fur too. We tried Diatomaceous Earth which controlled it, but no elimination. We finally ordered Capstar as a last ditch resort. So glad we did. Within 30min all 3 cats had immediate relief. We even picked up a few fleas who had fallen over dead. No adverse reactions in any of the cats to the medication. 4 days later…The dermatitis has cleared up in both cats. The outdoor cat had tapeworm I guess too, because those came running out his back end. Doing a second dose in a few days time. I have nothing but good things to say about this medication as my cats are all back to their normal selves personality wise. It has killed the existing flea population and we are ready and armed with Capstar for round 2!Linds03

My boxer loves everyone, including local friendly feral cats that sneak into her outdoor bed while she’s in at night. She would constantly get fleas and even worse were the sand fleas. The Capstar seems to be doing the job and her backside is looking better. Since I can’t pet or bathe the feral strays, I dosed some mackerel and they seem to be itching and scratching much less too. I dosed everyone again two weeks later and now just once a month. The Capstar seems to be keeping the fleas all under control. Just in case you are wondering, I’ve already trapped, spayed and neutered, then released all the feral cats I feed.Grumpy

We have 4 dogs and live in the country near the state line of Alabama and Tennessee. Our dogs have about an acre of fenced in land to roam free. Now mind you, the fleas were super bad this year. So we thought we'd give this pill at least two months of dosages to give it a chance. I feel so bad for one of our dogs. We went to bathe him only maybe a week after giving him a SECOND dose in about a week span (small breed, but heavier in size, about 25lbs) he had SOOOOOOO many fleas. I'm talking the stuff nightmares are made of. You ever see bed bug infestation videos on youtube? Yea, that's what this was like. As soon as the water hit his head 100's and 100's of fleas starting crawling out to the end of his hair. He was the worst, but none of the dogs were like that when we were using advantix2. So no dont buy this if you have multiple dogs, that stay mostly outdoors. DOES NOT WORK.Kgdoggiemomma

l give this 2 thumbs up! My cat had a cpl fleas and wanted to get ahead of it! I gave him a few of the MOST popular topical brands and they didn't work during the summer months! I gave this to him and they just fell off of him DEAD! I waited to give him the 2nd pill for 48hrs and all fleas are GONE! so amazing!Brianna

My neighbors have cats and dogs and do not use flea preventative. With all the rain we've had in the past month, my 7 dogs are infested with fleas. 3 are allergic and very bills are outrageous!! This will hopefully alleviate some of the infestation.Tanya

Because of the climate in the location, we are living, fleas are a year-round problem. I have rescue cats and dogs which are not always in the greatest condition when they arrive. My Vet recommends Capstar to help control the fleas, before getting them onto a monthly flea treatment! One Capstar pill is only good for 24-36 hours, if needed I give the cats another pill to complete flea treatment. Crushing the pill and putting it in their favorite moist food did not work for me, they noticed the difference and refused to eat it!Dawn

I've used Capstar for years. It's very very safe. Fleas begin falling off in 30 minutes, but it takes a couple hours to get them all. You can give a second dose after 24 hours. Ordered Capstar on 5/26. It's been "ready to go" for 10 days. Called and got a replacement order. Waiting to see if that one actually arrives.MeghanSter

Works well and quickly. We crushed up the small pill and mixed it with a small amount of wet cat food. Our cat goobled it up. Within a few minutes, she was biting herself, licking, licking, licking. Clearly uncomfortable as the fleas died, but it worked and she feels so much better. Super thankful. We did repeat it a few days later. No biting or licking the second time. Thinking that the fleas were gone or greatly reduced.AKD

It says it starts killing fleas in 30 minutes. Here's my break down: 6:38: It was a little bit of a struggle to administer, even given the surprisingly small pill size, but he seemed to forgive me pretty soon after. If you have a nicer cat than mine, it shouldn't be an issue. 6:48: No big changes, his shoulder blade and chest area did feel a little extra warm, but that could be my own imagination. 6:58: Nothing new, keeping a close eye on him, but he just wanted to lay his head on my laptop. 7:08: The itching and biting starts. Supposedly, according to other reviews I've seen, as the fleas start dying, they start biting, meaning your cat will start itching at themselves more. So compared to other people's experiences, this is completely normal and fine. 7:18: Itching has mostly stopped, but he still has little bursts, as any cat with fleas does. He laid down for a nap. 7:28: Mostly normal, haven't seen any signs of dead fleas, but haven't flea combed either. His collarbone area still feels warmer than the rest of him. I googled this, but couldn't find anything online. 7:38: Back to itching. 8: He's napping quietly! 10:30: Everything seems normal! He's doing well! I tried to flea comb him earlier and only found one dead flea, but one is better than the none I was getting from frontline. 10 (the next morning): Everything is totally fine! I still catch him itching little spots, but i have no doubt he has bites all over him that itch 🙁 For the most part though, that's stopped. And I checked his spot on my bed today and there was no flea dirt! Normally I wake up to flea dirt and sometimes even eggs! Started with a fresh sheet last night and none of that! He's probably still got some flea dirt in his coat so I expect to see some throughout the coming week or so. I'll repeat this in about a week or two to make sure the fleas are really done for good considering this product only kills adult fleas. Overall, this seems to have worked! I know it will take upkeep, but for it being so fast acting, and don't have to struggle with baths or anything, this is pretty amazing. I have seen some reviews that say this product made their cat have some horrible side effects, and that was my biggest fear going into it which is why I wrote this review. But please please please, if you can save yourself the anxiety, check with your vet before administering. The only reason I'm not rating 5 stars is because I haven't seen much evidence of the dead fleas yet! If I could rate 4.5, I would!Bethany

Just got an 8 week old 4/5 pound kitten, and saw he had fleas. Gave him a tablet and while I did notice after an hour he started scratching and itching and grooming himself like crazy, the fleas never died and never fell off. They are still alive crawling all over him. This product DOES NOT WORK. I obviously do not have an infestation because I have no other pets and just got this kitten yesterday. So do not try to reply to me saying it didn’t work because I have an infestation.Farmulous

Our veterinarian has a zero tolerance flea policy for his Houston practice. Anytime we book an appointment, he gives all pets Capstar so they don't bring any fleas with them or take any home. Capstar is only effective for a number of hours, but during that time it kills all the adult fleas on the pet. This is particularly useful during severe infestations of yard or home, or after a visit to a flea riddled park. After a winter with no freezing weather, our yard was covered and the monthly prescriptions didn't seem to work. We had to treat the yard and find a new monthly treatment, but Capstar killed the adult fleas quickly, albeit only for a day, but that gave us a chance to vacuum and let the yard products work. This is an expensive, emergency remedy to manage or prevent infestation. One pill will only protect your pet for one day, so it's in addition to, not a substitute for other treatments, but it kills all the adult fleas unbelievably fast. It's handy to have for visits to flea-filled dog parks.KE71

They people we got our 2 newest rescues for give them both each a Capstar before we brought them home. Yes this product did work remotely quickly and they had no fleas after. But about 5 to 6 hours after giving it to both my younger cats (16 to 18 weeks at the time) they both had these fits almost like convulsions. They sprinted around in circles shaking, and meowing in pain. Eventually collapsing near me still shake terribly! I could tell how scared they were cause I held them thru the worst of it. They are both better now and growing up fine but I just caution anyone from trying this without atleast talking to you vet first. Not every medication is right for your animal.HollyHologram

I used this product this last season for my dog and he never got flees. I feel so much better using natural stuff than chemicals on him. It was very affordable. It has a very strong scent at first but the scent does lighten up after a day or two. I would recommend this to anyone with dogs.katrina .s

I am not someone who takes my dogs health lightly. I try to use natural products as much as possible. We had a tick outbreak and everything I tried did not work. I bought these drops for all the dogs. Put it on. Took about 3 days to completely soak into the coat but ticks have been unable to attach which is great. Over the last few days there have been less and less. These drops along with Diatomaceous Earth spread around the corners of the house and all the beds is doing the trick. I totally recommend this product!k9rotehexe1

I bought this product earlier this week. I read the instructions and made sure that my dog met the weight requirements for the product. It worked the first day. She stopped itching and biting. The smell was pungent but it was doable. I liked the fact that it was natural. The next day after application, my dog is back to itching and biting. It only provided temporary relief.Yae713

I've used this product for almost 3 weeks. And she's got more fleas now than she did to begin with. I gave her a bath and there were what looked like hundreds of fleas in the water. While she was in the water I picked quite a few off of her by hand. Two or three times a week, I get her down and pick them off. It says this product repels, but it really seems like it attracts them! She scratches all the time! And has running sores. I sure hope this stuff is guaranteed!!! If it is, please send something to KILL these fleas!!edpr-9877

Do not give to small dogs especially non spayed females In 2020 gave our 2 small dogs flea away within a month the smallest dog developed swelling and lumps in her mamory gland which quickly developed into cancerous tumor she died within 2mos. The other dog developed the same swelling but it progressed very slowly she now has the same type of growth on her we don't know how long she will live. It can't just be a coincidence.Gayle Erickson

These did not help my dogs when it came to ticks. My dogs live on our farm, so we have no fleas. They were already on a monthly prescription heartworm medication, and have always tested negative. To be fair, I cannot say whether or not this product was helpful for mosquitoes. I cannot say I do, or do not, recommend due to my experience.Deborah

I bought this after reading it thinking it would work and it didn’t even kill the fleas. It’s not like my dog was covered in fleas because I take very good care of my dog. I would not recommend this product to anyone it didn’t even work at all.97girl

I bought the advantus yesterday. My babies loved them. I paid $54.99 plus tax $4.54 bringing the grand total to $59.53. Now let's break it down $59.53 divided by 30 days of the month that's a $1.98 per day to protect your baby. I do agree it could have had a lot more stuff to help with the fleas & ticks. Now the reason I said it won't work for me, is because I have 21 babies so instead of buying 1 bottle a month I would be buying 3 1/2 bottles. Now that's serious money, just bathe in dawn dish soap. mist them with a flea and tick spray before they go out to potty your good to go. I gave three stars because I bought it yesterday. Thank you.Peaches

First, let me state that I was unsure of this product before it arrived, not only because of the amazing price but because I've tried many different flea pills, chews and the liquid forms and none of them seemed to help at all. I have three large dogs and bought a bottle of 30 chews, geared towards smaller to medium size dogs, for around $29 and some change. Normally even after a bath, once my Dogs go outside, fleas are going to jump all over them. We've treated our yard but not only are there many strays in the area, not all of our neighbors treat their dogs or yards. I have given them each 1 chew daily since I got the first bottle, almost on the second bottle now and not one flea has been found alive on them! And very few dead ones, that we've found on their coats. No side effects so far (thankfully) and seemingly this product works extremely well, in my opinion. I'd definitely recommend this to strangers and have already recommended this product to family and friends.fallenangel29_2012

I have used this product on my Sheltie for 10 years, with her long hair I've never had a problem. It's just as effective as Frontline as it has the EXACT ingredients. If used properly it will work. As a matter of fact my roommate used advantix on her dog and her dog has fleas and my dog doesn't have a flea on her.Julianne

I've been using petarmor for quite a few years now, and not ever an issue, would find a dead flea once in a while. now this new order I received, first dose and both my dogs are having anywhere from 4-7 fleas everyday on each of them. I've had my yard sprayed, I bathe my dogs regularly , they only go outside to potty. So i a at wits end with why the petarmor is not working !!! I was told it expires, but I read all over that it does not !! so very frustrated , needless to say…Rocky Apollo

This product (when used faithfully) works! I’ve been using this product for nine years and no fleas or ticks. I briefly switched to the Plus and tried in the other expensive brand and my dog had a bad rash from whatever is in the Plus version in any brand. Oral pills make her sick. Please don’t ever stop making the regular version. It’s getting hard to find in stores.Bree

Works perfect We live in the Adirondacks, there were a lot of ticks this summer, our two dogs that love to play and run in the woods didn't have any ticks thanks to provectaSonja

Please, don't ever use any HARTZ products. Please google, "HARTZ kills". You will see thousands of pics of severely injured and dead cats and dogs. They have known it is an issue for decades but they are able to skirt the issue by using pesticides in their products instead of FDA monitored medications. These pesticides results in death and the government has allowed them to get away with it. Please at least do a little research before making your decisions.erin.m

I really liked these drops, I usually can just use the flea and tick collars, but for this last summer the collars weren't working. I got these drops and they did the trick. I will be getting these again for the summer.staci .b

I trust Hartz brand when it comes to preventing fleas and ticks. I know most people use flea chews but I don't see the need because this seems to work for me, I do not have carpet in my house which may be why I've not had any infestations. I would recommend this to family and friends who are looking for a simple method to protect their pets (both cats and dogs)stephanie.w

This is a TON of liquid and its runny as water. It ran all down my cat!! I took a paper towel and tried to wipe off the excess before it made it all the way down her front legs. I didnt notice the smell at first but within 5 minutes, my entire living room, dining room, and kitchen smelled like a nail salon. I believed my cat had gotten into some nail polish remover somehow but then i noticed it was the medicine!!! It was SO SO STRONG!! I cannot explain the odor except it literally made 1000 sq feet of my home smell like a nail salon. This stuff is BAD!!!! I took my cat to the bathroom and washed her 2 times. I can still smell it in her fur but she wasnt going to let me shampoo her a 3rd time tonight. Ill try again tomorrow if I can still smell it. I am very angry a conpany would sell this with these kinds of effects. I feel terrible i subjected my cat to this treatment!! I will read reviews first from now on. Lesson Learned!! Stay away from Hartz brand medicines!!!!!!!! Especially this one!Robert

Works really well. Presley has been infested with fleas for the last several years (his human brother brought them from his birth Mom's house) and we have been having a super hard time getting rid of them! We use a combo of the flea cream and a flea collar. The collar tends to be strong and take off his fur around his neck, but helps with the fleas….and the monthly flea cream keeps them at bay month to month…along with weekly combing and a bath every 3 months.valerie.d

I was on frontline for years but when I thought I saw a couple fleas on my dogs in September 2020, I decided to make a switch to Advantage II for my cats and Advantix II for my dogs— BIGGEST mistake of my life (seriously, like over any horrible exes). I have $515.97 in receipts I submitted to the company (which was as horrible as the experience, which I will get to) and spent an additional $70 in store (in which I cannot find the receipt) since September 2020 to December. I followed every tip on the website and insert and my animals were still covered. I applied perfectly. I applied initially weekly, vacuum daily, steam cleaned, wash bedding constantly, etc. I don’t even have carpet but on the stairs and have treated the stairs and couches with Predcor. I even bought those flea traps with the sticky bottoms. I am not including any of this in that total I spent– that was all on the flea medications themselves for the 6 animals. I have saved some, not all, of the vials so on 11/13 I called Elanco. They denied my request for any type of refund. They questioned my exact dosage dates and frequency more than a doctor wants to know about your menstrual cycles but I took my best guesses, for all 6 animals although I did know what schedule they were on but didn't have it in front of me. Then they said that the product was probably not working because I bathed my dogs initially at the beginning 48 hours before application?? Their website TELLS you to bathe them before application (see 2nd screenshot posted)! I stopped bathing them after the 2nd application as it wasn't working and the dogs were miserable and only tried 2 cats (and really only 1 successfully because we all know how that goes). They then told me that I didn't give the product long enough?? Their website states (see 3rd screenshot) and is the same for Advantage II "K9 Advantix® II kills fleas within 12 hours. New fleas that jump on the dog from the surroundings, such as grass, carpet and pet bedding, are killed within 2 hours with protection against further infestation for at least 4 weeks." I tried their products, $600 worth on 6 animals, as scheduled, no missed doses for 4 months. I can’t blame it on just one animal or one batch—it didn’t work on 6, or one batch! I am very upset. Not only have I wasted money on these but I have bought corresponding products, sprays for the beddings, flea traps, etc. I FINALLY called Terminex and had to spend 12 hours clearing out under my beds, closets, getting everything off my floors, moving furniture etc. (time I will never get back) and getting my children and pets out of the house and went back to the brand that works: FRONTLINE! NO MORE FLEAS– what I should have done in the first place. I am so upset not by the fact that the product didn't work but by the way the company handled it, dodging any responsibility from blaming it on the baths they recommend to the length of time I gave it when they could have just refunded me and had someone that isn't going to not only post this review every place I bought it (not just here) but every other place that allows a review to include social media.Intelhottie

We bought Advantix liquid application anti-flea and tick treatment because it is effective, was less expensive and did not require a prescription. We had easily and successfully used liquid Advantix for years with our Plott hound mix. We now have a beagle. Beagle hair is different; it's thick, coarse, oily, kind of water proof and difficult to part in order to properly apply the liquid to the skin. Advantix is a very good product, but pet owners may want to assess their pet's coat to determine how the liquid application could be applied.Gary

My dog was getting ticks so I purchased this. I have used it in the past with great success when it had the Bayer logo on it . The one I received has the Elanco brand logo on it. I used 1 bottle and It was like I used nothing at all. Mind you I walk my dog and when he comes in the house I would find 2 or 3 live ticks walking on him. So I figured ok maybe it didnt work or I didnt wait long enough. After about 10 days of this I applied another bottle and again nothing. He still kept coming in the house with ticks every time. So I'm not sure exactly what's going on but the package I received appeared to be authentic. All serial numbers matched and packages were sealed well. Never had this happen before but definitely going back to Frontline Plus.kschoern

I needed to use this product for some time to appreciate its abilities. My dog likes to spend time outside rolling around and doing dog things. This leads to her coming into the house, tracking dirt and the pesky fleas. We've done well to mitigate it in the past, but PetArmor helped in the process. Within a few days, we noticed that she would not be scratchy when coming back into the house, then we didn't have to treat her bedding as much. Very nice! This went on for a few weeks, and eventually, there were no signs of fleas or scratching! It's been a great summer, and we look forward to a flea-free fall. She had no adverse reactions, which is good these days, but constantly test to ensure!MDB1481

In the past, I have given my dog oral medication to prevent flea and ticks. It worked well but I was never comfortable with the fact that he had to ingest the medicine. I decided we’d use a topical solution for this summer and this is working great so far. The application was easy and the the applicator worked well. I’ve had to apply a different brand on foster puppies in the past and sometimes, the liquid would just all flow right out during the first contact, leaving no medicine for the rest of the dog’s back. It wasn’t the case with PetArmor. I had good control to dispense the product with their applicator. My dog had no discomfort whatsoever on the application sites. The product didn’t leave his coat all oily or smelly. I love that you can scan a QR code in the box and the brand will send a text 30 days later as a reminder for when the next dose is due. Their formula contains Fipronil and (S)-methoprene like most expensive well-known brands but at a more affordable cost. So far, I’m very happy with this and I look forward to a tick free summer!LinPMaine

Finally something that works consistently. After trying probably 10-15 brands of flea and tick stuff for my Dogs this is the company I come back to. Ive tried expensive stuff, Ive tried dirt cheap stuff. This works and works FAST. I actually have to put my dogs out if they have fleas on them at all. Within 30 minutes they are jumping off to get away and die. Weve had issues with super fleas here in northeast USA where the only thing Ive found to work is old fashion dawn dish soap and salt.Ive literally spread salt on all my floors so it looks like snow and left it sit over night then vacuum it up and then mop with dawn dish soap, everyday for over a week straight. This stuff not only took care of the fleas on the dogs and cats but the ones in the house would jump on the dogs would die to. Havent had an issue since.Corvet08
