Product Overview
FlickOut Soap is a medicated canine soap containing 2% Permethrin as its active ingredient. Specifically developed for dogs, this therapeutic soap provides effective treatment and prevention against flea and tick infestations while offering prolonged parasite protection. Its user-friendly formulation makes it an ideal solution for maintaining canine hygiene and wellbeing.
Uses
FlickOut Soap serves as an effective parasiticide for controlling and eradicating fleas and ticks in dogs. Beyond eliminating existing infestations, it creates a protective barrier against reinfestation. Regular application promotes optimal skin and coat health by preventing parasite-induced itching, irritation, and potential secondary infections.
How to Use
1. Thoroughly wet your dog’s coat with warm water
2. Generously apply FlickOut Soap, creating a rich lather
3. Massage over entire body, paying special attention to difficult areas (legs, neck)
4. Maintain lather for minimum 10 minutes
5. Rinse completely with clean water
Use as directed by your veterinarian or per package instructions.
How it Works
The 2% Permethrin formulation acts as a dual-action insecticide and acaricide. Upon contact, it:
• Disrupts parasite nervous systems
• Induces paralysis
• Causes eventual death
Its residual activity provides continuous protection against new infestations for several weeks post-application.
Dosage and Administration
For optimal results:
• Apply biweekly or as veterinary recommended
• Strictly follow package dosage guidelines
• Avoid ocular, nasal, and oral contact
• Rinse immediately if accidental contact occurs
