Ectoparasites such as Fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, sand flies, lice and mites can spread diseases to humans, dogs, cats and other animals. These external parasites are called “vectors” and the diseases they transmit are considered “vector-borne diseases." Heartworm, West Nile virus and Lyme are just three examples of diseases spread by external parasites to humans and pets.
With the Vectra® line of veterinary-exclusive products, Ceva brings scientifically advanced solutions based on an innovative quick-kill insecticide, Dinotefuran coupled with an insect growth regulator and an acaricide (in Vectra® 3D), to protect both cats and dogs against vectors. Each application lasts for 1 month against most Ectoparasites.
Vectra® 3D: Broad spectrum protection against vectors for dogs
Vectra® 3D is a unique combination of three active ingredients carefully formulated into a system that allows the product to spread quickly and adhere to the dog’s body. Vectra® 3D repels and kills via contact: adult fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, sand flies, biting flies, lice and mites (US). It also controls development of all immature flea stages: eggs, larvae and pupae.

Vectra for Cats & Kittens®, Vectra for Cats®, and Vectra for Dogs & Puppies®, also available in USA, all provide quick onset of activity against adult fleas, and controls all immature flea stages (eggs, larvae and pupae).
Parasite control belongs in the hands of veterinary professionals to ensure pets receive the right dose at the right time.
