Johnson's 4fleas Spot On Small Dog

Johnson’s 4fleas Spot On Small Dog treats and prevents flea infestations and treats biting lice (Trichodectes canis) on dogs weighing 4kg to under 10kg. Its active ingredient, imidacloprid, kills fleas within one day of treatment, and each treatment prevents further flea infestation for four weeks.

This two-pipette pack provides two treatments for a dog in the correct weight range. Flea larvae in the treated pet’s surroundings are also killed following contact with the treated animal.

• For dogs weighing 4kg to under 10kg.
• For dogs over eight weeks of age; the weight restriction also applies.
• Treats fleas and biting lice.
• Four weeks’ flea protection per treatment.
• Contains two 1ml pipettes, with one pipette used per treatment.

Composition

Each 1ml pipette contains imidacloprid 100mg, butylhydroxytoluene (E321) 1mg and benzyl alcohol (E1519) 832mg.

Dose and application

Weigh your dog before treatment. Use one complete 1ml pipette for a dog weighing 4kg to under 10kg. Dogs below 4kg or weighing 10kg or more require the appropriate alternative product.

Hold the pipette upright, twist and remove the cap, then use the reversed cap to open the seal. With your dog standing, part the coat between the shoulder blades until the skin is visible. Place the tip on the skin and squeeze firmly several times to empty the entire contents directly onto the skin. This is a full pipette, not a single drop. Avoid applying excessive liquid at one spot that could run off the dog’s side. Apply only to undamaged skin.

For biting lice, have your dog re-examined 30 days after treatment, as a further treatment may be needed. Frequent swimming or bathing may make re-treatment necessary; follow the supplied leaflet and never re-treat more frequently than once a week.

Important precautions

For external use on dogs only. Do not give orally. Do not treat unweaned puppies under eight weeks old or animals with a known allergy to any ingredient. Avoid the animal’s eyes and mouth, and do not allow recently treated animals to groom each other. Consult your vet before use during pregnancy or nursing, or when considering other flea treatments; do not use simultaneously with other flea products applied directly onto the animal.

Do not stroke or groom your dog until the application site is dry. Apply in the early evening and do not allow a recently treated dog to sleep with owners, especially children. Keep treated dogs out of watercourses for 48 hours. Avoid contact with leather, soft furnishings and plastics until the application site is completely dry.

Do not eat, drink or smoke during application. Avoid contact with your eyes and mouth, wash skin contamination with soap and water, and wash hands thoroughly after use. People sensitive to imidacloprid or benzyl alcohol should avoid contact. Seek medical attention if irritation persists or the product is swallowed, taking the packaging with you.

Contact your vet if adverse reactions occur, including skin reactions, unusual behaviour or problems with movement. Read the supplied leaflet for the full precautions and possible reactions.

Household flea care and storage

New fleas can continue to emerge from the environment for six weeks or longer. Vacuum resting areas regularly, wash bedding and use a suitable household flea treatment where needed. Other household pets should receive a treatment suitable for their own species and weight.

Keep out of the sight and reach of children. Keep pipettes in their blister and outer carton until use, away from food, drink and animal feed. Dispose of used pipettes promptly. Do not use after expiry or contaminate ponds and waterways with the product or empty packaging. Follow the supplied leaflet and local disposal requirements.

Always read the supplied packaging and leaflet before use.
