Program Flea Control Tablets for Dogs Description:
Program is an oral tablet for the control of fleas on dogs. It works by stopping the flea eggs from hatching preventing the build up of fleas in the environment and on the dog. When a flea bites a treated animal, it ingests the active ingredient which will cause the eggs laid by this flea to not hatch. The normal build up of the flea population on the dog and in the environment is stopped. Each pack contains 6 tablets which is a six month supply for one dog. Program tablets are administered monthly.
