Fleas can be a major problem for dogs and dog owners. Your pet may be exposed to these blood-sucking parasites anywhere: in your own backyard, when you are on walks or even in your own home.

  • Each female flea can produce 40 to 50 eggs a day, up to 2,000 in their lifetime[1]
  • Even a few fleas can turn into a major infestation in a matter of days

Comfortis® is the first FDA-approved, chewable, beef-flavored tablet that kills fleas and prevents flea infestations on dogs for a full month.
