How does Effipro Spot-on work?
Effipro Duo Cat Spot-on contains fipronil and pyriproxyfen as the key ingredients. The combination of fipronil and pyriproxyfen provides insecticidal and acaricidal activity against fleas and ticks in addition to preventing flea eggs developing into adult fleas.
Fipronil is an insecticide and acaricide that eliminates fleas and ticks by causing uncontrolled activity of their central nervous system. Pyriproxyfen is an insect growth regulator (IGR) whose ovicidal effects block the development of flea eggs, larvae, and pupae, which are subsequently eliminated.
