Administration
To give Capstar Tablets, place the pill directly in your pet’s mouth or hide it in food. If you hide the pill in food, watch closely to make sure your pet swallows the pill. If you are not sure that your pet swallowed the pill, it is safe to give a second pill.
Treat all infested pets in the household. Fleas can reproduce on untreated pets and allow infestations to persist.
Quick Tips
- Capstar can be used with lufenuron to provide a Flea Management system. The two products, when used together, kill adult fleas and prevent flea eggs from hatching.

Customer Reviews
My solution is to apply flea control to the kitties that I can readily apply medication to then give the other three capstar until one by one I have them all.. There are lots of fleas in this area during summer in particular and it's great to quickly stop a major infestation when I can not get all the kitties at once.
Anyway, these do work. You still have to use a flea preventative, but these will kill the fleas that are on the dog immediately, and to me, the best part is that they are out of the dog's system in 24 hours. If they don't get EVERY flea, you can give another pill the next day. FINALLY, after struggling with this most of the summer, we are flea free. Hurray!!
I was DELIGHTED with the shipping! I ordered heartworm preventative from another source the same day, and it has not arrived YET... and it's been a week. The Capstar from Entirely Pets came in 3 days.... I live in Indiana.
I will definitely order from Entirely Pets again..they have now become Number 1 in my sources for dog supplies.
