Beaphar FIPROtec COMBO Flea & Tick Spot-On for Large Dogs (20–40kg) 1 Pipette
About This Treatment
Beaphar FIPROtec COMBO for Large Dogs is a dual-action spot-on veterinary medicine for dogs and puppies from 8 weeks of age weighing 20–40kg. This pack contains 1 pipette; each pipette is formulated for this exact dog weight band.
Fipronil acts against adult fleas, ticks and biting lice. S-methoprene helps break the flea life cycle by preventing exposed flea eggs and larvae from developing, including those associated with the pet’s surroundings.
Adult flea killing activity lasts for up to eight weeks and tick killing activity for up to four weeks. For continuous combined flea and tick control, apply every four weeks as directed.

How It Works
- Fipronil kills adult fleas, with action against fleas generally taking effect within 24 hours.
- Kills ticks and biting lice, usually within 48 hours.
- S-methoprene prevents exposed flea eggs and larvae from developing, helping interrupt the flea life cycle.
- Persistent flea-killing activity: up to 8 weeks.
- Persistent tick-killing activity: up to 4 weeks.
- A measured, single-use pipette for application directly to the skin between the shoulder blades.
- Fipronil can cause fleas to become more active as it takes effect, so fleas may briefly appear more noticeable after treatment.
How to Apply
- Weigh your dog before treatment and check that this is the correct pack. Read the package leaflet before application.
- Remove one pipette from its sachet. Hold it upright, remove the cap, then turn the cap over and use it to break the seal.
- Part the fur between the dog’s shoulder blades until the skin is visible. Apply the tip to the skin and squeeze several times to empty the pipette completely.
- Apply the full contents directly to the skin, not just onto the fur. Repeat every four weeks when ongoing combined flea and tick control is needed.
- Treat any other pets in the household with a product appropriate to their species and size. Vacuum resting areas and wash pet bedding regularly as part of managing an existing flea infestation.
