Monthly fipronil protection for small breed dogs. Virbac Effipro Spot-On Small Dogs is a veterinary-grade spot-on parasiticide containing fipronil — precisely dosed for small dogs weighing 4–10kg — providing fast, effective, and long-lasting protection against fleas and ticks through a single monthly application. Small breed dogs are not less susceptible to fleas and ticks than larger breeds — in many ways they are more vulnerable. Their smaller body mass means a flea infestation represents a proportionally greater burden, their lower blood volume makes them more susceptible to flea-induced anemia, and their proximity to the ground during walks increases tick exposure. Fipronil kills fleas within 24–48 hours of contact and ticks within 24–48 hours of attachment, then distributes through the skin's sebaceous glands to maintain whole-body protection for up to 4 weeks. In Egypt, where Rhipicephalus sanguineus (the brown dog tick) is the primary vector for Babesia canis and Ehrlichia canis, monthly Effipro application is essential for every small breed dog. From Virbac — one of the world's leading animal health companies. 1 ampule — one month of complete flea and tick protection for dogs 4–10kg.

Why Virbac Effipro Spot-On Small Dogs Is The Best Choice

• Fipronil — Clinically Proven — One of the most extensively studied and validated parasiticides in veterinary medicine — decades of clinical use confirming efficacy and safety.
• Small Dog Dose — 4–10kg — Precisely dosed for small breed dogs — the correct fipronil concentration for complete efficacy and safety in this weight range.
• Small Breeds Are More Vulnerable — Lower body mass means flea infestations represent a proportionally greater burden — and lower blood volume makes small breeds more susceptible to flea-induced anemia.
• Kills Fleas Within 24–48 Hours — Fast-acting flea kill — existing fleas on the dog are eliminated within 24–48 hours of application.
• Kills Ticks Within 24–48 Hours — Ticks are killed before most tick-borne diseases can be transmitted.
• 4-Week Protection — A single monthly application provides continuous flea and tick protection for up to 4 weeks.
• Whole-Body Coverage — Fipronil distributes through the skin's sebaceous glands from the application point — providing complete body coverage from a single spot.
• Waterproof After Drying — Remains effective after bathing once the application site has dried.
• Spot-On Convenience — Single monthly application between the shoulder blades — no tablets, no sprays, no collars.
• Tick-Borne Disease Prevention — Protects against Babesia canis and Ehrlichia canis — the tick-borne diseases most prevalent in Egypt.
• Virbac — Veterinary Expertise — From one of the world's leading animal health companies.

Product Details & Features

The Small Dog Weight Range — 4–10kg The Effipro Small Dog ampule is formulated for dogs weighing 4–10kg — the weight range that encompasses many popular small breed dogs:

Breeds in the 4–10kg range:

• Maltese (larger individuals)
• Pomeranian (larger individuals)
• Miniature Pinscher
• Dachshund (standard)
• Shih Tzu
• Pug (smaller individuals)
• Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (smaller individuals)
• Bichon Frisé
• Miniature Schnauzer (smaller individuals)
• Jack Russell Terrier
• West Highland White Terrier (Westie)
• Scottish Terrier
• Basenji (smaller individuals)
• Lhasa Apso

Important weight boundary note: Dogs weighing less than 4kg require a different formulation — do not use the Small Dog ampule for dogs under 4kg. For very small dogs and toy breeds under 4kg, consult your veterinarian for the appropriate parasiticide.

Why Small Breeds Are More Vulnerable to Parasites Small breed dogs face specific parasite-related risks that make consistent monthly protection particularly important:

Flea-induced anemia: A single adult flea consumes approximately 15× its body weight in blood per day. For a 5kg dog, a moderate flea infestation of 100 fleas can consume a clinically significant amount of blood — causing iron-deficiency anemia with symptoms including:

• Lethargy and weakness
• Pale gums
• Rapid breathing
• Reduced appetite

In puppies and very small dogs, even a small flea infestation can cause life-threatening anemia — making prevention critical.

Proportional parasite burden: A flea infestation that would be a minor nuisance for a 30kg dog represents a proportionally much greater burden for a 5kg dog — in terms of blood loss, immune stress, and skin irritation per kilogram of body weight.

Ground proximity: Small breed dogs walk closer to the ground than large breeds — increasing their exposure to fleas jumping from the environment and ticks waiting on low vegetation.

Flea Allergy Dermatitis in Small Breeds: FAD is particularly distressing in small breeds — their smaller body surface area means that the itching, hair loss, and skin damage from FAD affects a proportionally larger area of their body. Consistent monthly Effipro application prevents the flea bites that trigger FAD reactions.

The Egyptian Tick Risk for Small Breeds Rhipicephalus sanguineus (the brown dog tick) is active year-round in Egypt — and small breed dogs are not immune to tick attachment or tick-borne disease:

• Babesiosis — Babesia canis is particularly dangerous in small breeds — their lower blood volume means that the hemolytic anemia caused by Babesia progresses more rapidly and is more immediately life-threatening
• Ehrlichiosis — Ehrlichia canis causes bleeding disorders that are more dangerous in small breeds with lower platelet reserves

Monthly Effipro application kills ticks within 24–48 hours of attachment — before the transmission window for most tick-borne diseases closes.

Fipronil — Safe for Small Breeds Fipronil's selectivity for insect and arachnid nervous systems — combined with the precise dosing of the Small Dog ampule — ensures safety for small breed dogs:

• The Small Dog ampule contains the fipronil dose calculated specifically for 4–10kg dogs
• The dose provides adequate skin surface concentration for complete efficacy without exceeding the safety margin for small breeds
• Fipronil has an excellent safety record in small breed dogs at therapeutic doses

Application Considerations for Small Breeds Small breed dogs require the same application technique as larger breeds — but with attention to their smaller body size:

1. Confirm weight — Verify the dog is within the 4–10kg range
2. Part the fur between the shoulder blades — this may be easier with a second person holding the dog
3. Apply the entire contents directly to the skin — the entire ampule, even though it is a smaller volume than larger size ampules
4. Prevent licking — Small breeds may be more flexible and able to reach the application site — monitor for the first hour after application and use an Elizabethan collar if necessary
5. Allow to dry — Keep the dog dry for 48 hours after application

Important precautions:

• Do not use on dogs under 4kg — consult your veterinarian
• Do not apply to broken or irritated skin
• Keep children away from the application site until completely dry
• Do not allow other pets to groom the treated dog until dry
• Do not bathe the dog for 48 hours before or after application
