Flea & Tick Shampoo

Yes. This shampoo uses natural botanical oils - Cedarwood, Rosemary, Eugenol, and Peppermint - rather than harsh synthetic chemicals, so you can feel good about what's going on your dog's coat and skin.

For dogs with high outdoor exposure or an active flea and tick problem, we recommend bathing every 7–10 days until the issue is under control. For maintenance and prevention, every 4–6 weeks is sufficient. Consistent use is key to breaking the pest lifecycle before it restarts.

For best results, work the shampoo into a full lather and let it sit on your dog's coat for 5–10 minutes before rinsing. This gives the active oils — Cedarwood, Rosemary, and Eugenol — time to do their job on fleas, ticks, and eggs.

This formula is intended for adult dogs. If you have a puppy, please consult your veterinarian before use, as age restrictions apply to many flea and tick products.

This shampoo is designed to work across all coat types — short, medium, and long — and is suitable for small, medium, and large breeds. For dogs with thicker or longer coats, take extra time to work the lather all the way down to the skin, as the active oils need to make full contact to be most effective.

Yes — and for dogs dealing with a more serious flea or tick problem, combining treatments can be the most effective approach. This shampoo pairs especially well with the Zesty Paws Flea & Tick Spray, which can be used between baths to keep protection going day to day.

Everything that goes into a Zesty Paws Chew only comes from trusted suppliers – from our meat, fish and dairy to our fruit and veg, herbs and grains and, of course, our branded active ingredients.

Our philosophy is that if we wouldn't put it on our plate, we won’t put it in your dog’s bowl – it’s that simple.
