Participate in a Flea Study and get one box of Advantage (four applications) FREE
Bayer, in conjunction with Auburn University, Kansas State University, and the University of California at Riverside, is undertaking a study to screen for Advantage-resistant fleas.
They need flea eggs for testing. Our animal hospital is one of a select few providing flea eggs for this study. We need our clients to bring in their pets for us to collect the flea eggs. To
participate in the study and receive a FREE box or card of Advantage (four applications, good for four months!):
- The animal must sit in a cage on a grating for several hours, which limits the size of the pet to no more than 50 - 70 pounds (to fit comfortably in the cage).
- Several hours are needed for collection (plan on leaving your pet here for at least three to four hours), though typically the larger the pet, the shorter the collection time.
- The pet must truly have a moderate or heavy flea infestation (lightly infested animals will take too long to collect the forty-plus flea eggs needed to qualify).
- We must know what flea control (if any) your pet has been on for the past year.
Due to shipping restrictions to send the collected eggs in a timely manner to the proper University for the study, we can only schedule collections from Sunday through Wednesday. If
you are one of our clients, or will be in the Los Angels area, bring your pet in on one of the appropriate days, or call for more information.
