I don't think it is available here yet, our vet said to get a friend to bring it over from the UK. Most vets in the UK do not stock it so it would need to be ordered - it only takes a couple of days. Hope this helps.

Hi Bambi you can buy it from Petcross the new vet behind Starling supermarket heading out to Ozankoy. It works really well, we've had ours on it for over 12 months and never had any problems - even when they go swimming which is a regular occurance!

Does this treatment compare to Frontline in cost and results?

Yes it does and is affective as a repellent as well as an insecticide......But be warned K9Advantix must "NEVER" be used on cats...

If you use Frontline you would also need something for sandfly which usually comes as a collar and is no good if it gets wet. Advantix does fleas, ticks and sandfly in one.
