How Does Nexgard Work?
NexGard chews is a new age formula for killing fleas and ticks for dogs. This specially formulated chews from the makers of Frontline contains an all-new ingredient – Afoxolaner – never used before in any other preventative. The active ingredient – Afoxolaner readily gets absorbed in the bloodstream of a pet and attacks the nervous system of fleas and ticks, which eventually leads to the destruction of these parasites. Afoxolaner is slowly realized through animals’ metabolic activity and thus, NexGard effectively eliminates fleas and ticks for a whole month.
