Flea treatment for dogs is one of those pet parent must-haves. Yeah, it’s not as fun to buy as, say, a squeaky toy or big, comfy dog bed, but fleas and other pests can cause serious problems for your pooch. And they’ll need it all year round too, even if their idea of the Great Outdoors is a stroll around the block. You (yes, you!) can bring fleas and ticks inside without knowing it, risking an infestation. But with so many options—from dog flea collars to dog flea pills—how do you know which is the best flea treatment for your dog?
The best flea treatments for dogs keep these pests far away from your furry BF and fit with you and your pet’s lifestyle. Are you and your doggo avid hikers? Then you might go for a dog flea collar that you can forget about for six months. Does your dog refuse to take a pill no matter how much peanut butter you try to hide it in? A tasty dog chew for fleas might be a better option.
Below, we’ve rounded up the best flea treatments for dogs based on Chewy customer ratings, reviews and sales. You’ll be sure to stop the itch with these pet-parent tested and approved products.
Best Dog Flea Pill

Helped will bad case of fleas this year
My girls rarely get fleas and this year for some reason- not sure how they came into contact but it took a long time to rid them of fleas I had to resort to getting an internal solution. no bad side effects and was pretty much gone. thank you Capstar

Capstar Gave My Dogs A Break

Very Very good
Works as said. If have infestation I highly recommend using this. Revolution was doing nothing after a flea infestation from some wildlife . This was a lifesaver in between treating house and backyard for fleas. Bc it worked so well I decided to try nexstar, this company's flea topical that works for a month. So capstar is good if u have a flea infestation. I used it every 48 hrs for a week. You can however give up to 1 a day if need be. I didn't want to over medicate if not needed and my own personal situation the 48 hrs was ok since this product works between 24 and 48 hrs. Idk if I would have needed this product if I already had the...

Camping no TICKS Super GRATEFUL
Tick defense she is loving them!!! Eats them right up. Since movig to TN I have pulled 6 ticks off her. Tennessee has tons of ticks in our yard out camping in the woods and they are big and gross. Since eating 2 a day for a week now not one tick on. I'm so happy.
Best Flea Collar for Dogs
-
Good as the Spendy ones
I have used a substantially more expensive version for several years. Decided to try these out and very much to my surprise (I swore off this particular brand years ago) they have worked fantastic! Our problem is mostly ticks here and I have not had to remove even one since putting these on all seven dogs.

flea collar
My dog has used this for the past year and he has had no problems, no flea or ticks. So, i got another years worth .
-
Works great!!
The collar is nice. Simple to use, just pull/stretch the collar to release flea repellant so you don't get it on your hands. It protects my dog for six months and he barely noticed that it was there. The collar is very comfortable to wear. Overall, I am satisfied with this product.
Best Flea Shampoo for Dogs
-
I definitely recommend
This shampoo smells good. It kills fleas. It has stopped my dogs from itching. It makes their hair very shiny and soft. The shampoo isn't runny like others on the market.
-
Not for frou frou purposes
Definitely a unique smell (jaeger anyone?) AND definitely not wimpy (you can smell it 30 feet away) AND definitely WORKS. I use this because we live in the woods and I don't want to deal with tick diseases in my dogs, I don't want to be swarmed when we are washing them outside in the doggy tub and mosquitoes think I'm delicious, and my girls' coats feel gross and dry with the tropical nonsense... so we use this. Keeps pests off the dogs, the mosquitoes avoid me like plague (remember I said you can smell it 30 feet away? Yeah. That bubble works on me too!), and it doesn't make them softer or coarser (husky and shepherd hair is pretty course...

Excellent product and wonderful service
Have used Frontline Flea and Tick for years, happy to see I could order from Chewy. Great service and shipping.

Since we now live miles and miles away from . . . . everything, it is such a break to be able to get the pet's needs sent to our door quickly, affordably, and without hassle.
Best Dog Flea Comb

Excellent and does the job!
Every pet owner needs this comb on hand for grooming their dogs or cats to detect a minor flea problem and control it before it gets out of hand. It is well worth the money.

Great comb that is gentle for cats
This comb provides the ability to find those pesky ticks while gentle enough so that your cat looks forward to his or her grooming
