How long does Itch Pet take to work?
No matter what, fighting a flea infestation can take some time. Fleas are tricky little pests, so getting rid of them takes a thorough and lengthy routine.
Initially, Itch Pet’s flea treatment will get to work straight away to kill adult fleas within the first 24 hours of applying treatment. However, it can take a little longer to target younger fleas and flea eggs. Allow longer time for the treatment to activate against these life stages. To fully remove all fleas, you need to also treat your home with household flea spray. Why? Because fleas and flea eggs get deposited in your carpet and furniture, and will survive, continuing the infestation.
