Worth using where an infestation is confirmed and a full-coat treatment is wanted, though this is a pesticide product and label directions should be followed closely, especially around cats.

Overview
A 12 ounce liquid flea and tick shampoo from ADAMS formulated with pyrethrins, piperonyl butoxide and the insect growth regulator pyriproxyfen (Precor), for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens over 12 weeks old.
Beyond killing adult fleas and ticks on contact, the pyriproxyfen component targets flea eggs, which is what separates an insect growth regulator shampoo from a plain flea shampoo. It ranks #1 in Dog Flea Control Shampoos and #2 in Cat Shampoos on its category listing, and carries a 90-day satisfaction policy direct from the manufacturer.
- 12 fluid ounce liquid shampoo
- Pyrethrins, piperonyl butoxide and pyriproxyfen actives
- For dogs, cats, puppies and kittens 12 weeks and older
- Light Fresh scent, yam-free formula
Who it's for
Suits owners dealing with an active flea or tick infestation who want a single wash to address adults, eggs and lice at once. Less suited to owners who only want a routine coat-cleaning shampoo with no pesticide ingredients.
Pros and cons
- Treats adult fleas, flea eggs, ticks and lice in one wash
- Approved for both dogs and cats over 12 weeks
- 90 day manufacturer satisfaction policy
- Contains active pesticide ingredients, so label directions matter
- 12 oz bottle for larger dogs or multiple pets may not go far
Performance notes
Pyrethrins and piperonyl butoxide work together to kill adult fleas and ticks on contact, while pyriproxyfen interrupts the flea life cycle by preventing eggs from developing, which is why the label addresses infestations rather than just visible adult insects. The Light Fresh scent and yam-free formula are cosmetic and allergen notes rather than functional claims.
