What is Bravecto?
Bravecto is the first oral chew providing up to 12 weeks of protection against fleas and ticks. One chew offers broad-spectrum, long-lasting protection, starting to kill fleas within 2 hours and controlling four tick species: black-legged tick, American dog tick, brown dog tick, and lone star tick. Bravecto eliminates current flea infestations and prevents new ones from developing for 12 weeks.
Benefits of Bravecto Chew

How Bravecto Works
After administration, Bravecto quickly reaches tissue fluids under your dog’s skin. When fleas and ticks feed on your dog, they ingest Bravecto and die. It kills fleas, prevents flea infestations, and kills ticks (black-legged tick, American dog tick, and brown dog tick) for 12 weeks. It also kills lone star ticks for 8 weeks.
