Check suitability before use

Always fully read the supplied leaflet and packaging and weigh your dog before treatment. Bob Martin describes this product as the 10–20kg size, while its application instructions specify dogs over 10kg and up to 20kg. If your dog weighs exactly 10kg, check the supplied leaflet and seek veterinary advice before choosing a dose. The age and weight requirements must both be met.

Directions for use

1. Remove your dog’s collar before application so it does not restrict access to the treatment sites.
2. Remove one pipette from the pack. Hold it upright and snap off the top section of the cap to open it.
3. Part the coat at the base of the back of the head until the skin is visible. Place the tip directly against the skin and gently apply approximately half the contents.
4. Apply the remaining half directly to the skin between the shoulder blades.

Avoid applying onto the fur and do not rub into the skin. Apply where your dog cannot lick the product off, and do not allow pets to lick each other after treatment. Follow the supplied leaflet regarding replacing the collar after application.

Use one pipette per treatment. Bob Martin recommends monthly application as part of a regular flea-control programme. The minimum interval between treatments is four weeks; do not reapply sooner.

Important precautions

For external use on dogs only. Do not use outside the stated age or weight range, or in animals with known hypersensitivity to fipronil or any other ingredient. Use during pregnancy or lactation only following a vet’s benefit/risk assessment.

Do not handle or play with your dog until the application site is fully dry. Apply in the evening to minimise contact. Do not allow treated dogs to sleep with owners, especially children. Prevent swimming or entry into watercourses for 48 hours after treatment.

The product may irritate skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and mouth. Do not eat, drink or smoke during application. Wash hands thoroughly afterwards. People with known sensitivity to insecticides or alcohol should avoid handling this product.

If skin contact occurs, wash immediately with soap and water. For eye contact, rinse thoroughly with clean water and seek medical advice if irritation continues. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show the packaging or leaflet. Dispose of empty packaging and unused product according to the supplied leaflet and local waste requirements.

Managing fleas in the home

Use as part of a regular flea-control programme. Treat other cats and dogs with products appropriate to their species, age and weight. Vacuum bedding and resting areas regularly. Household infestations may also require an approved household flea product, used according to its own instructions.

This is the standard Clear fipronil treatment, not Clear Plus. Always read and follow the supplied leaflet.
