What is NexGard Spectra for Dogs?

NexGard Spectra is an upgraded formula of the original NexGard, which controls tick and flea infestations on dogs. NexGard Spectra contains an additional active ingredient (Milbemycin Oxime) that protects your pet against heartworms and other intestinal parasites.

This means that with the administration of a single monthly chewable you can: kill fleas, kill ticks (including Rocky Mountain wood tick, brown dog tick), prevent the development of heartworm, and control roundworms, hookworms and whipworms.

As with all heartworm medications, this is a preventative measure and it is important that your dog is first tested for existing heartworm.

  • Fast acting formula kills fleas in 6-8 hours
  • Comes in a tasty beef-flavored chew for easy administration
  • No more mess from topical preventatives

    Surprised
    Ordered on 9/03 got it on the 16th. Was concerned it was a scam since I never received the tracking information but the medicine came in regardless so I’m happy!

    Nexgard Spectra-XL
    I purchased this size Nexgard Spectra and also different dosages for my smaller dogs. I originally bought flea and tick products from my local vet but their prices just keep going higher and higher! When I found PET BUCKET it seemed worth trying and I am so glad I did. The product is just what it is suppose to be and the prices are almost half what they want for them at the vet shop. The only minor issue is that I have to order in advance so that I don't run out since the shipping takes longer. It is well worth the planning.
