Both deliver the same 12-week flea and tick coverage. Always pick the tube that matches your dog's current body weight for correct dosing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ3: How does Bravecto Topical work in small dogs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fluralaner absorbs through the skin into the bloodstream after application. When fleas or ticks bite and feed, they take in fluralaner, which blocks their nervous system's chloride channels, causing paralysis and death. This systemic action keeps working for a full 12 weeks from a single dose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ4: Is Bravecto Topical water-resistant for small dogs that bathe frequently?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Bathing or swimming at least 3 days after application does not affect how well Bravecto works against fleas and Ixodes ricinus ticks. Waiting 3 days before the first bath after dosing is all that is needed, making it practical for small breeds that are washed regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ5: Is Bravecto Topical safe for breeding or pregnant small dogs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adverse events have been reported in breeding females after use.
